No Favors

“Andrew Puzder, CEO of CKE Restaurants, which owns Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s, is bucking the nutritious eating trend by insisting what consumers really want is “a big juicy burger.” Carl’s Jr. today will unveil a beef teriyaki charbroiled burger featuring teriyaki sauce, Swiss cheese, a slice of grilled pineapple and a calorie count of 1,060″ — MSN Money article
I just had to post this because it really irks me. Yeah, America might want a big juicy burger, but if a heart attack goes along with it….are you really doing us a favor?
This is why I don’t eat at Carl’s Jr.

WOW, that is insane. Heartattack and obesity, nice combo to help America. WTH are these places thinking. If they could make convienent HEALTHY food in regular portion sizes they'd probably make even more money. Why not help keep your customers around longer instead of trying to kill them off faster? I don't get it. Thanks for posting this!
