1. My sister would call that a Glory Bowl. It's what she also calls that
monstrosity that Kentucky Fried Chicken is marketing now. 690 calories -- more than a triple Whopper with cheese, but less than a double Quarter Pounder with cheese . . .

:dead:

3. I saw that on TV...big bowl of mashed potatoes, fried chicken

nuggets or something over it. Then gravy on top, and I think they capped it with ~blech~ cheese. Seriously, I thought it'd be more than 700 calories.

4. Actually a Triple Whopper with cheese has 1230 calories
82 grams of fat. :puke: I probably go over 2000 calories half the time, but there's no way I could fit 82 grams of fat into one day. Ugh...

I mean, even their veggie burger with cheese has 470 calories. I've eaten fast food once in the last five years or so. It was the middle of nowhere upstate NY, late at night. We stopped at Burger King, because ironically, it was the most reliable vegetarian option for us.

13. Oh, my god. What a dunce. I was looking at "weight (grams)"--not calories.
:dunce:

14. There's gravy in that meal in a bowl
is it customary to eat fried chicken and gravy?

I don't eat it, so I wouldn't know.

Wouldn't it just make the coating gloppy?

15. Fried chicken & gravy? Heck yeah, in the U.S. South.
I don't like it, but a lot of folks do. My beloved (native Tennessean) taught me how to make chicken gravy from the grease of fried chicken. Dee-lish. But again: :dead:

18. Hell, in the south you put gravy on damn near everything...
But I love fried chicken, smashed 'taters, corn and pan gravy. And biscuits. Gotta have biscuits.

And the gravy doesn't have to get the chicken soggy. You can pull the chicken apart and dip it in the gravy. Or, if you make the gravy thick enough (more flour to the grease), it won't make ANYTHING soggy.

(use a little cayenne pepper in the flour you use to coat the chicken, too)

2. I just ate something similar...
...browned some ground beef, slipped in chili powder, salt/pepper and some canned salsa. Cooked up some pasta, tossed the whole thing with grated cheddar.

A little less healthful, yours, but not much. ;)

8. Yea but I drained the fat.....
And used only two servings of Sausage....

It had a total, for the whole thing, about 1500 calories.... 40 grams of fat.....

We split it .....

Celebrating a new job for the mate....

5. Serious question: Why do they put cheese on EVERYTHING you buy in a fast..
food joint? Who's exactly is bribing whom?

That shit ain't real cheese anyway. I don't want it. DO YOU HEAR ME CORPORATE POWERS THAT BE? NO EFFIN' CHEESE, ALREADY!

6. I could easily put cheese on everything.
I don't though. Well sometimes I do. It really depends on how bad my sinuses are.

16. That does sound pretty spicy!
As well as creamy....but once or twice a year is not going to kill you!

I'll bet you had fun celebrating!

Good times, good times!
