How fat is your food?

Question - What do these 3 food items have in common?

New York

Indiana

North Carolina

Answer - in addition to being something I can safely say I would never consider eating, they represent their State’s fattiest food.

I’m not sure how thorough the investigation was, but Health.com identified the food associated with each State that had the highest fat content.

The prize for Illinois went to deep dish pizza (40 – 55 grams of fat per serving depending on topping) while Louisiana’s Beignet came in at 11 grams (about the same as that found in a McDonald’s cheeseburger).

At least pizza and beignets are good to eat. Words cannot describe the level of ick I feel with these guys:

• the Garbage Plate from New York:  93 - 203 grams of fat per plate depending on the version
• the Fried Brain Sandwich from Indiana:  24 grams for beef,  only 18 for pork 
• the Livermush from North Carolina:  30 grams per serving

I would rather eat an entire deep dish pizza myself than even a forkful from one of these.
