Tasty Tuesday: 20 Worst Foods In America



I stole this list from Melissa Worthen's blog because I thought it was so interesting. Eating out three times a day is making me crazy anyway and once I read this I'm even more disgusted by the whole thing! I can't wait until I get my kitchen back! As you read, keep in mind that 2,500 calories a day is a reasonable intake for the average guy. (by the way Dad, check out the worst Mexican entree, sorry!)
