Fast Food Friday – Takin’ A Break…
Sorry gang, I didn’t get to any fast food joint this week so I have nothing official to report for “Fast Food Friday“.
But I would never leave you completely hangin’…
Here’s a link to a article on Yahoo! today from their popular “Eat This, Not That” series. It’s the 6 worst fast food hamburgers (and what you should eat instead). When reading about these burgers you will notice that none of them actually include bacon which is both comforting and disturbing. Comforting in that I could eat that bacon double cheeseburger and it’s still not the worst thing in the menu. Disturbing because I wonder what the numbers would be like if these all had bacon on them.
And then I also came across this today from the website BurgerBusiness.com, here’s a quick excerpt:
Certainly burgers have contributed to the bacon tsunami. Mintel finds that the number of bacon-topped burgers at all 580 restaurants in its Menu Insights database soared from 424 in 2005 to 576 in 2009, a 35.8% increase. At QSRs, the increase has been a Whoppering 32.9%, although that’s a bit less than for all restaurants.
Yes, people love them some bacon.
Both are interesting reads…so click thru and take a peek!
