Burgers I HAVE GOT TO TRY!!!!

Who knew???

Stolen from ""Eat This, Not That!

10. JOHNNY ROCKETS ROUTE 66 DOUBLE TURKEY BURGER W/ GLUTEN-FREE BUN
Nutrition: 1,380 calories, 100 g fat (30 g saturated fat, 0 g trans
fat), 2,560 mg sodium, 50 g carbs (10 g fiber, 10 g sugar), 70 g protein
The picture only shows one layer of meat, but imagine this burger with
two ground turkey patties! This sandwich clocks in at a whopping 100
grams of total fat, nearly a third of which is devoted solely to
saturated fat. The gluten-free bun and the turkey patties actually hike
up the calories by a considerable amount.

9. THE CHEESECAKE FACTORY'S AMERICANA CHEESEBURGER Nutrition: 1,400
calories, 93 g fat (37 g saturated fat, 3 g trans fat), 3,370 mg sodium,
79 g carbs (4 g fiber, 25 g sugar), 60 g protein We all know The
Cheesecake Factory offers some of the most caloric pasta dishes and
cheesecake slices on the planet, so is this really any surprise that
their burgers are just as calorie-heavy? This burger alone comprises
just over two-thirds of your daily calories.

8. THE CHEESECAKE FACTORY'S MUSHROOM BURGER (GLAMBURGER) Nutrition:
1,470 calories, 102 g fat (40 g saturated fat, 3.5 g trans fat), 2,700
mg sodium, 72 g carbs (4 g fiber, 22 g sugar), 65 g protein This burger
from The Cheesecake Factory may not look like it's huge, but trust us
when we say it's loaded in calories, fat, and sodium. Or, better yet,
just refer to the numbers above.

7. JOHNNY ROCKETS' SMOKE HOUSE DOUBLE BURGER W/ TURKEY BURGER ON
GLUTEN-FREE BUN Nutrition: 1,490 calories, 100 g fat (30 g saturated
fat, 0 g trans fat), 3,690 mg sodium, 70 g carbs (10 g fiber, 20 g
sugar), 80 g protein This burger houses a whopping 100 grams of fat. For perspective, one stick of butter contains about 92 grams of fat-which
means you'd save 8 grams of fat by eating that rather than this meal.

6. FRIENDLY'S TRIPLE DECKER BACON BURGER Nutrition: 1,512 calories, 101
g fat (47 g saturated fat, 0 g trans fat), 2,981 mg sodium, 42 g carbs
(1.5 g fiber, 9 g sugar), 103 g protein Friendly's Triple Decker Bacon
Burger packs 47 grams of saturated fat, which is more than double the recommended daily allowance of about 20 grams. Ideally, you should limit
your saturated fat intake to just 13 grams a day to prevent heart
disease and stroke, according to the AHA. Also, this burger is just
large and far too excessive for someone to be eating in one sitting.

5. CHILI'S THE BOSS BEEF BURGER Nutrition: 1,530 calories, 107 g fat (42
g saturated fat, 3 g trans fat), 3,130 mg sodium, 49 g carbs (4 g fiber,
16 g sugar), 92 g protein This burger is truly an artery-clogging
monster with 43 grams of saturated fat and over 3,000 milligrams of
sodium. Not to mention, it packs over 90 grams of protein, which is far
too much for your body to metabolize all at once. In fact, different
experts say that the body can only utilize between 15-35 grams of
protein at a time for muscle-building purposes-the rest is used for fuel
or, at this hefty amount, stored in your body as fat.

4. APPLEBEE'S WHISKY BACON BURGER Nutrition: 1,650 calories, 102 g fat
(34 g saturated fat, 2 g trans fat), 2,780 mg sodium, 122 g carbs (8 g
fiber, 19 g sugar), 63 g protein Whiskey fans, we advise you to step
away from this burger-no matter how tempting it may look. No burger is
worth nearly 1,700 calories.

3. APPLEBEE'S QUESADILLA BURGER Nutrition: 1,650 calories, 108 g fat (40
g saturated fat, 2 g trans fat), 3,690 mg sodium, 102 g carbs (8 g
fiber, 7 g sugar), 70 g protein Imagine if a cheesy quesadilla met a
jumbo burger-this would be the result. Why have a standard bun when you
could have soft flour tortillas enclosing gooey cheese and bits of red
bell pepper and onion as the base? This burger packs 108 grams of fat
primarily from the mass amount of animal products and byproducts that it contains. If you're wondering just how much grams of fat that is,
imagine eating about 12 tablespoons, or more than 2/3 of a cup, of
peanut butter in one sitting.

2. THE CHEESECAKE FACTORY BACON-BACON CHEESEBURGER (GLAMBURGER)
Nutrition: 1,680 calories, 116 g fat (46 g saturated fat, 3.5 g trans
fat), 3,560 mg sodium, 77 g carbs (3 g fiber, 29 g sugar), 78 g protein
The second unhealthiest burger you could order is none other than the Bacon-Bacon Cheeseburger at The Cheesecake Factory. You could eat an
equivalent amount of sodium that's in this burger by consuming about 1
1/2 tablespoons of finely ground salt straight from the spoon.

1. BJ'SRESTAURANT & BREWHOUSE HICKORY BRISKET AND BACON WITH FRENCH
FRIES Nutrition: 1,700 calories, 99 g fat (36 g saturated fat, 0 g trans
fat), 4,280 mg sodium, 123 g carbs (7 g fiber, 37 g sugar), 76 g protein
If you learn anything from this article it should be this: any burger
that's topped with bacon is going to cost you-calories, fat, and sodium,
that is. And this burger from BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse is loaded up
with not just bacon, but brisket, too. The result is a meal that comes
in at 1,700 calories.


... After a good dinner one can forgive anybody, even ones own relations.
