Discussion about

too bad people are allowed to eat things they want too but perhaps shouldn't... hope obama will take time out of his busy redistribution agenda to eliminate choice

Deathburgers are only fun when you can do the drive-through, and stuff your face at 80mph. This walk-in crap they have in New York: too many calories gone to waste.
