The alternative Wendy's meal for me in the place of the Double with everything would be 2 Double stacks. I wonder if that's worse.

When the hell did blokes start caring about Calories? When they started giving a shit about their health instead of just shoving whatever food they want down their throat? |

Eh, I figure when my number's up, my number's up. I might as well enjoy it by not letting some busybody tell me what I should eat. I for one don't want to live into my 70s so I can suffer the indignity of trying to make it to the toilet on time.

Because when I eat a crappy fast food burger I usually feel bloated and sluggish. |

I just hate it when they bust on burgers for having alot of calories when they are supposed to be part of a meal. Yeah, maybe the fries and soft drink tack on a bit, but 700 calories for one meal is about how much a meal should be, especially your dinner. Do you seriously mean to tell me people snack on a Wendy's Double with Cheese?
Though I will gladly say and repeat, "Five Guys" are about as good as a Cheeseburger from a crappy grocery store deli. I have been to more than one (so I know it's not just one location) and I can safely say that they do not deserve one shred of all the praise they arrogantly wallpaper their buildings, cups and whatnot with.

I love these lists when they go off on dropping carbs. Considering to feel good and healthy, I need to eat mad carbs everyday. Bread is my friend. Pasta is damn near my lover.
Then again, I've come to accept I'm the exception to the rule of calorie counting and dieting.
Although I still agree 700 calories in a meal isn't bad. Three meals a day means 2100 and most people I know eat a fast food meal like that once a day, max and eat a small breakfast. Snacking is far worst, imo, as at least these meals fill most people up and keep them that way for a while unlike a ton of ice cream or potato chips.
Plus, I still shake my head at the lack of mentioning exercise in any of this stuff. It's not like you need to hit the gym hardcore. Take a walk or a sprint or do some curls or situps or something. It still burns off some calories.

I love that they used the pics of burgers just as they come to you out of the drive thru window during the lunch rush. Crushed buns, messy condiments placement, and generally unappealing looks contrast nicely with the doctored pics on the menu board and commercials.
Also, where in the hell is Hardee's Monster Burger on this list? I seem to recall that beast at one time topped 2000 calories.

I can't wait to see the stats on that. |

I've never even heard of "Five Guys" According to this, they only began franchising recently. So chances are you haven't heard of them because they haven't expanded to your area. Personally, I've never eaten at one of their places, and I don't plan on it either. Too many of the people that work the local ones have Tony Montana-esque habits for my likings. And I'm a former chef. |

 Oh mighty burger, we are not worthy! Seriously though, I think eating that would make you go blind and impotent. |

Well, now they're only saying worst as in which has the most calories. They're not going by deliciousness. Cause the Triple Whopper should be rather high in the tastiness category, not low. I also have to say that I like the look of that Five Guys cheeseburger.  |

It's a shame I had to give up fast food bacon.
Last time I visited my friend's, we went to Wendy's. He was going to pay me $5 to eat a triple baconator, but I had to pass. I'd already gotten $5 from him for eating a Triple Classic meal.
