How bad have things gotten?

It could be worse.  The cheese steak is actually looking like a nice alternative compared with these posted in USA Today:

•In Georgia, you can get what's called a Luther Burger, supposedly named after singer Luther Vandross. It's a ground beef patty topped with bacon and cheese, sandwiched between two Krispy Kreme doughnuts instead of a bun.

•In Iowa, there's a hot beef sundae, which made its debut at the Iowa State Fair a few years ago, O'Connor says. It's mashed potatoes, roast beef, beef gravy, cheddar cheese and a little cherry tomato on top to look like a cherry on a sundae.

•In Vermont, there's Ben and Jerry's "Vermonster," whi*****ludes 20 scoops of ice cream, hot fudge, bananas, cookies, brownies and any other topping you could possibly want.

•In Connecticut, diners at Doogie's can get a 2-foot-long hot dog on a roll with onions, chili, cheese and bacon and a side of fries.

•In New Mexico, recipes for a Frito pie vary, but most include Fritos corn chips, beef, beans, onion, cheddar cheese, lettuce and tomato.

Can you imagine even sitting in front of one of these.

Before surgery, I could imagine myself in front of ALL of them!  Especially the B & J ice cream!

Now, not so much...

Rob, Do people really eat this stuff ? Makes my stomach turn just to read it. See you lighter. Joanne

I'm with you Judy, before surgery it would be the Ben & Jerry's I would be filling my face with. 

Before surgery.....I also would have enjoyed some of the ben and jerry's ice cream.  The rest of the menu....turns my tummy. All pre processed, high fat, high sodium food that even the non gastric bypass person would feel sick after eating.  

Reminds me of a email I read of Oprah at a world's fair eating fried butter.  The things people eat.
