Burger King's evil new sandwich

This morning's junk e-mail brought a press release denouncing Burger King's new offering, the BK Stacker.

Here's what Burger King says of the burger:

"Get meat and cheese your way with BK STACKERS. Choose from double, triple or quadruple layers of beef and cheese - topped with bacon and sauce. It's the flame-broiled meat lover's burger and it's here to stay - no veggies allowed."

And (predicatably, but still funnily) here's the best part of what Jeff Novick, director of nutrition at the Pritikin Longevity Center & Spa, has to say:

"Fast food like this is great if you're in a hurry - to die!"

I've also seen ads for the Triple Whopper, another artery-clogger delight as well. Think of a wholesome food item with 82 grams of fat (with cheese) and 1,230 calories. The BK stacker has not made the nutritional info from BK's website yet.
