We’re Getting Heartattacks

A new sandwich place is coming our way in Urbana Champaign. Actually, it opened last week. I saw it in a sports blog, of all things. This place is called Fat Sandwiche Company, and the sandwiches are as big as footballs. Well, at least one. This one:

giant freaking sandwich

The real reason I’m mentioning this seemingly insignificant news item is because FSC has a sandwich that could kill you. And you know I love food that’s so over the top that it’s deadly. For $25 you can buy a sandwich called “Big Fat Ugly”. It consists of two rolls, four cheeseburgers, a double cheesesteak, a chicken cheesesteak, gyro meat, grilled chicken, bacon, sausage, mozzarella sticks, chicken fingers, chicken nuggets, mac n cheese bites, fried mushrooms, jalapeƱo poppers, pizza bites, onion rings, hash browns, American cheese, mayo, and ketchup. Eat this six pound, football-sized monster in less than 15 minutes and your sandwich is free.

Airport Food

Sunday, May 18th, 2008

Thursday I got the pleasure of connecting in Midway airport. No biggie as I didn’t have to go through security again (ahem. fuck you ohare). While hanging out in my terminal i got the burning desire to eat. No really, my throat burns if I don’t have food for too long. The selection was slim pickins, but I had the good fortune of eating at

Holy shit french fries. The fries were made right then and there, and the burger was on a Kaiser roll. The burger itself sort of blew, but everything else rocked. The extra mile? THE RIGHT CONDIMENTS:

Heinz!

Sorry for the lack of updates, I’ve been away from the internet a few days.
