Supersize Me

Ok, you win.
I am weak. I am human.
I have succumbed to your calling.
Congratulations, McDonalds!!!

Call me a hypocrite. I know I have dissed McDonalds for coming up with their crazy line-up of supersized burgers. But look what we got here. A Mega Mac.

But to set the record straight, I only had one bite - because I actually had a double cheeseburger instead (and some fries and some nuggets, Haha). Who am I kidding. A burger is a burger is a burger.

Zach was actually the one who finished the Mega Mac (while I was drooling with envy hahaha). But you know what, it's not really as big as I thought it would be. In fact, I can definitely easily eat one if I wanted to.

By the way, I never thought curry sauce would go well with chicken nuggets. What a revelation. Only in Singapore! (or in India as well?).

I'm sure you are all thinking what the hell am I doing eating all these junk fast food when I'm trying to lose weight. Well, it goes to show I am weak. And that's the reason why I am forever trying to fight the bulge. But I am very happy to say that now, I am able to run for 8 minutes straight on the treadmill (a feat I could not do before). I have been back at the gym at least 2-3 times a week and spending at least an hour on cardio (either spinning class or the treadmill) and 40 mins on weights. So there. Scold me.

Supersizing Singapore

Just days ago, I was flabbergasted by Heart Attack Grill in the USA, but what do you know, Singapore is also being supersized.

I was on my way to work today and saw this sign on my usual walking route to the MRT...

Please, NO ONE deserves a mega mac, for crying out loud!!!

Goodness Gracious Great Balls of Cholesterol. I really thought such humongous burgers would never penetrate the local food market because Singaporeans (I believe) are generally healthy-eaters. But it looks like McDonald's now has their own version of the quadruple bypass burger by Heart Attack Grill, they call theirs the "Mega Mac". A big Mac itself is enough to clog your arteries but times 2??!! I can't believe it.


And, there's even the "Mega Sausage McMuffin" to kick-start an early cholesterol-laden day. Did you know that Mickey Dee's Maple Syrup-injected-McMuffin is one of the worst burgers/muffins you could ever eat? If I'm not mistaken, it is even worse than a Big Mac.

BUT WAIT!! There's more! Just when I thought Mcdonald's has gone extreme with their burgers, this is what I saw on my way back to the office from a client...


It seems like there's this warfare between Burger King and Mcdonald's on who can make Singaporeans fatter, faster!! And they call theirs the "BK Double/Triple/Quad Stacker". Doesn't that sound reaaallllyyy similar to the double/triple/quadruple bypass burgers by Heart Attack Grill??!

To anyone who is willing to gorge on any 2 variants of these heart-attack burgers, let me know. My Treat. Seriously. Read more on "Supersizing Singapore"!
