Think Twice

Oh my goodness. I found this article and I could not believe my eyes. This really makes you wonder what is being put into your body. I love all of this food too! I guess not anymore huh!

Top 20 Worst Foods in America

20. Worst Fast Food Chicken Meal - Chicken Selects Premium Breast Strips from McDonald's (5 piece) with cream ranch sauce. 830 calories, 55 grams fat, 48 carbs. Add large fries and regular soda and this seemingly innocuous chicken meal tops out at 1,710 calories.

19. Worst Drink - Jamba Juice Chocolate Moo'd Power Smoothie (30 fl. oz.) 900 calories, 10 grams fat, 183 carbs, 166 grams sugar. The beverage contains as much sugar as 8 pints of Ben & Jerry's butter pecan ice cream.

18. Worst Supermarket Meal - Pepperidge Farm Roasted Chicken Pot Pie. 1,020 calories, 64 grams fat, 86 grams carbs.

17. Worst "Healthy" Burger - Ruby Tuesday Bella Turkey Burger. 1,145 calories, 71 grams fat, 56 grams carbs.

16. Worst Mexican Entree - Chipolte Mexican Grill Chicken Burrito. 1,179 calores, 47 grams fat, 125 grams carbs, 2,656 mg sodium.

15. Worst Kids' Meal - Macaroni Grill Double Macaroni 'n' Cheese. 1, 210 calories, 62 grams fat, 3, 450 mg sodium. It's like feeding your kid 1 1/2 boxes of Kraft Mac 'n' Cheese.

14. Worst Sandwich - Quiznos Classic Italian. 1,528 calories, 92 grams fat, 4,604 mg sodium, 110 grams carbs. A large homeade sandwich would more likely provide about 500 calories.

13. Worst Salad - On the Border Grande Taco Salad with Taco Beef. 1,450 calories, 102 grams fat, 2,410 mg sodium.

12. Worst Burger - Carl's Jr. Double Six Dollar Burger. 1,520 calories, 111 grams fart.

11. Worst Steak - Lonestar's 20 oz. T-bone. 1,540 calories, 124 grams fat. Add a baked potato and Lonestar's Signature Lettuce Wedge and this is a 2,700 calorie blowout.

10. Worst Breakfast - Bob Evan's Caramel Banana Pecan Cream Stacked and Stuffed hotcakes. 1.540 calories, 77 grams fat, 198 grams carbs, 109 grams sugar. Five Egg McMuffins yield the same caloric cost as this stack of sugar-stuffed flapjacks, which is truly a heavy breakfast, weighing in at a hefty pound and a half.

9. Worst Dessert - Chili's Chocolate Chip Paradise Pie with Vanilla Ice Cream. 1,600 calories, 78 grams fat, 215 grams carbs. Would you eat a Big Mac for dessert? How about three? That's the calorie equivalent of this decadent dish. Clearly, Chili's customers get their money's worth.

8. Worst Chinese Entree - P.F. Chang's Pork Lo Mein. 1,820 calories, 127 grams fat, 95 grams carbs. The fat content in this dish alone provides more than 1,100 calories. And you'd have to eat almost five servings of pasta to match the number of carbs it contains.

7. Worst Chicken Entree - Chili's Honey Chipolte Crispers with Chipolte Sauce. 2,040 calories, 99
grams fat, 240 grams carbs.

6. Worst Fish Entree - On the Border Dos XX Fish Tacos with Rice and Beans. 2,100 calories, 130 grams fat, 169 grams carbs, 4,700 mg sodium. Perhaps the most misleadingly named dish in America. A dozen crunchy tacos from Taco Bell will saddle you with fewer calories.

5. Worst Pizza - Uno Chicago Grill Chicago Classic Deep Dish Pizza. 2,310 calories, 162 grams fat, 123 grams carbs, 4,470 mg sodium. Downing this "personal" pizza is equivalent to eating 18 slices of Domino's Crunchy Thin Crust cheese pizza.

4. Worst Pasta - Macaroni Grill Spaghetti and Meatballs with Meat Sauce. 2,430 calories, 128 grams fat, 207 grams carbs, 5,290 mg sodium. This meal satisfied your calorie requirements for an entire day.

3. Worst Nachos - On the Border Stacked Border Nachos. 2,740 calories, 166 grams fat, 191 grams carbs, 5,280 mg sodium.

2. Worst Starter - Chili's Awesome Blossom. 2,710 calories, 203 grams fat, 194 grams carbs, 6,360 mg sodium.

1. The Worst Food in America - Outback Steakhouse Aussie Cheese Fries with Ranch Dressing. 2,900 calories, 182 grams fat, 240 grams carbs. Even if you split these starters with your friends, you'll have downed a dinner's worth of calories before your dinner arrives.


Sorry for the disappointments

New Addition





This is the newest addition to the Fink family. This is Daisy Fink. She is 11 weeks old, Jack Russell Terrier and more than a handful. We got her at a puppy store by Clints work on Friday the 18th at 1:18pm.

I went to my cousins on Thursday and they had a jack russell and right then i knew i wanted one so i met clint at the pet store during his lunch break. We both decided that at this time we wouldnt get her. The very next day Clint called me and said i had to come pick up the dog from his work because he bought her behind my back.

So far she has been a good pup. She is going to the bathroom outside every couple of hours and she is very rambunctious. Cash and daisy so far are getting along really well. They like to play and run around the house. Their new favorite game is tug of war. She holds on to the rope as Cash pulls her around the living room. She has some cute little habits too. Whenever she yawns she squills. It is the cutest thing ever. I decided to paint her toenails pink today because I have always wanted to do that but I have always had boy dogs. We are loving her already and we are excited to teach her some good tricks like wishbone the dog!
