Now i am sitting here pondering if my lunch of rotisserie chicken with baby greens salad and cottage cheese is even worth eating.
I want heart attack food.

how much chicken are we talking here. Iād argue polishing off an entire chicken or two (with skin of course) is heart attack food
Confession: Iāve definitely done this

Not that much chicken - maybe 8-10 oz.
I am fully capable of consuming insane amounts of chicken. I have consumed more than one chicken in a sitting before, and in a different sitting ate at least 12 chicken legs with all the fixins on the side.
Edit: Just realized 6 chickens had to die to me to eat one meal. I donāt feel bad about it, itās just an interesting thought.

My preferred heart attack food is a potato and onion soup, where, while cooking the potatoes and onions in oil and then cooking them in a dutch oven submerged in chicken broth until theyāre soft, you cook 5-6 SUPER THICK slabs of bacon in the oven, and pull the top off the dutch oven to pour all the bacon grease from the pan into the soup. Then you pull out about a quarter of the potato chunks and blend them with a cup and a half of heavy cream and return it to the soup. Once the soup is done, you crumble up the well-done bacon and sprinkle it on top with green onions.
Fuck.

Doubt it, in college I would eat 2-3 a week. Fridays were a holiday for me, Albertsons sold them for $7 with Hawaiian rolls. Iād buy 2-3 and eat them for dinner Fri, Sat and sometimes Sunday.

What about sticks of cheese wrapped in bacon that are then battered and fried?
LIving in the mid-west for some times, I experienced all sorts of deep-fried heart attacks.

confession: I find this somewhat hypocritical discussion of heart attack foods more productive than 90% of whatās discussed on this forum

I second this having grown up in the midwest.
If you have never experienced a fish boil - I highly recommend the trip to Wisconsin or Minnesota for one of those events. As much locally caught, fried lake perch and fries as you could possibly eat. Washed down, of course, with some great Wisconsin beer.
I like how āboilā creates a deceptively healthy facade for those who are unaware that the fish is being boiled in oil

shhhhhhā¦the italians are still after you for that
If i must - a bit too many carbs for me (i am diabetic), I prefer my heart attacks induced by cheese and grease.
Letās just say thereās a reason most Green Bay Packerās fans are carrying full size spare tires.

Nah. We talked. I had to change its name to a cutsie American mashup which implies nationality without actually claiming heritage.

Heart attack hamburgers (unofficial name given by my friendās dad): itās a hamburger patty (actually two) with bacon and cheese inside as well as on top. The two patties form one monster patty.
I know this is older, but Iām old enough to remember bacon strips, bacon strips, bacon strips, bacon strips.

Thereās a place in my town that does a cheeseburger atrocity that Iāve only seen attempted and never completed. They get super deep dish pizza from the joint next door, the pizza is probably 2-2.5inches thick and plenty doughy and use that as the buns on a generously portioned burger patty.
I confess that thereās a coach on here who has been off putting in his interactions with others and now I find myself ignoring his work. Iāll see the title of an article and think āOoo, thatās exactly what I want to achieve.ā But then I see the author and the thought changes to āOh, itās by himā and I move on.

That much real estate leaves open the possibility for like endless toppings and combinations.
I love pizza burgers. I make my own every so often, much more modestly, and only using a nice sized bun, Peperoni, cheese, sauce, usually some spinach. It gets crowded pretty quickly though.
