Chow Bacon = Heroin

Gross, gross, GROSS.

  • Gross, gross, GROSS.

...and cheesecake = cocaine, in terms of addictiveness:

Bacon and cheesecake can alter the brain in ways similar to heroin and cocaine, according to scientists who say they have found the most compelling proof yet that high-fat foods rewire the brain and drive the development of compulsive eating.

More from the Vancouver Sun (which printed the repulsive photo above—it's a Wendy's "uber-Baconator" served in Edmonton for $35).

Somebody actually sells that sandwich? Gross! I like bacon as much as the next red-blooded American, but that is just too much.

If I'm going to spend $35 on bacon, it's not going to be at Wendy's.
