Yahoo Health's Worst Burger: Chili's Southern Smokehouse Bacon Burger





Think of every high-fat, high-sodium, and high-calorie topping, and this one's got it: maple bacon, smoked cheddar, mayonnaise, crispy onion strings, and ancho-chile barbecue sauce. With fries, the meal has 2,290 calories and more fat and sodium than you should consume in two days: 139 grams of fat (211% of the proper daily intake), 46 grams of saturated fat (230%), and a bloodcurdling 6,500 milligrams of sodium (271%).

Get the chicken fajitas instead - the whole thing sans tortillas is less than 500 cal.

Every once in a while it might be ok to go out and treat yourself to such decadence. The danger is when you make theses choices without being informed. Without the nutritional facts or numbers.

I'm not going to go out to eat, and pay top dollar for carrot sticks. Lol I'll eat them the next 3 days to make up for it. Lol
