I sure would love some bacon-wrapped tater tots!

It is with a heavy heart and much sadness that I give you the following tragic foodie news: The Department of Health in LA has decided to ban the sale of bacon-wrapped hot dogs. Some representative reportedly said that "Bacon is a potentially hazardous food." Get this guy a hangover and some brunch and we'll see what he thinks then.

Vendors can continue to sell the bacon-wrapped delights, but only if they cough up $26,000 for a new cart. Without it, they aren't allowed to sell bacon. Makes no sense to me.

Because of this outrage, I feel compelled to share the following graph with you:



Time to heat up those frying pans!

Ladies Who Lunch. (And brunch.) (And eat donuts.)

It's official. Paula Deen is trying to kill us all. The Food Network star uses butter like it's going out of style, but I have (which I am reluctant to admit) been enticed by her shows including fried chicken, brownies, chicken pot pies and casseroles. After stumbling upon her Lady's Brunch Burger on the Food Network site, I was intrigued then repulsed.

The sandwich is basically a standard burger, except with a few modifications. Instead of hamburger buns, she recommends using glazed donuts. She also includes bacon and a fried egg. Whoever thought the Red Robin burger with the egg on it was decadent, this is a completely different level of unhealthiness.
