Last year, Planet Earth sorrowfully asked mankind "Why, dear peoples, why?" after the invention of something sinister and bizarre: KFC's Double Down.
Well, congratulations, 2011: You are the mind-fuck of a fast food year that actually found a way to add to the Famous Bowl, to create McDonald's mind-control television, to create a soda that's "not for women" and to literally, actually vilify vegetables.

[slow clap]

Who knows what they'll do in 2012? Maybe Pizza Hut will build new restaurants actually encased in cheese, and you have to eat your way to the door. Or Taco Bell will synergize with the March of Dimes and create a street made entirely of reinforced taco shell.

For now, though, we're pointing the finger at you, This Year. We're targeting the most insane, over-the-top conceptual abominations (to health and society) and trends released by the fast-moving food industries.

1. That's like trying rank...

...which of my shits are the ten worst smelling. It's an exercise in futility, because they all stink.

Hell, even the salads at fast-food places will kill you:

2. I'm officially anti American: none of that stuff looks edible at all.

There seems to be some sort of perverse contest going on at Evil Corporate HQ about how much fat, preservatives, non food substances, salt and probably corn syrup they can jam into the food of the lesser classes to kill them off quicker.

3. The Famous Bowl looks delicious.

4. I think

the only thing I might try is the Trenta at Starbucks. And with that, it'd be an unsweetened iced green tea. And that would last me all day.
