Not hungry? You will be.
Which is your favorite, and have you created anything like this yourself? I'm liking the girl scout cookies fried and topped with maple syrup.

Ah, one of my favourite picture aggregation sites. (Also the only one I regularly read.) Some of this stuff looks almost tasty if incredibly unhealthy, but then there are things like the Meta Meat Cake (http://thisiswhyyourefat.com/post/380234834/meta-meat-cake-four-types-of-sausage-bratwurst) or, I dunno, ice cream with fudge, chocolate and fruit sauce and three types of cookies and sprinkles and just for the hell of it topped with sugar cubes or whatever where it's just, okay, you're deliberately wasting food now.
Pretty sure none of even the unhealthiest foods I create would even remotely qualify.

I almost had a heart attack looking at that. I guess this is why they say vegetarians are healthier...

Pretty sure the cadbury eggs benedict could be made vegetarian with a little work and be no less unhealthy.

I'm not really a food person. All these pictures makes me feel nauseous instead of hungry. Am I a food heathen?
Okay, except this (http://thisiswhyyourefat.com/post/409309803/mountain-harbor-inn-brownie-stack-three-balls-of). That looks delicious.

It's interesting that you find the one that looks most like a penis the only one that's delicious.

It doesn't even look a little bit like a penis either. It's like pure penis all the way.
Viridis, is there something you want to tell us?
Also, I think the meta meat cake thing Meister linked looked pretty good.

I've heard of something like the Cheddar Pour (http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kytsg2qDU01qzvnxpo1_r1_500.jpg) before. Looks delicious.

See, to me that just looks silly. Why even have a burger? Just take some cheddar cheese, and some hamburger--maybe some cream cheese and milk to change the consistency, and make a party dip that tastes basically the same, is easier to eat, and isn't wasting half the cheese.

Looks like someone's been sick on a burger.

Yeah, most of that stuff is nauseating to me. And I EAT foods that would kill a normal man. It's like, man, all of it looks so sloppy and wasteful. We eat with our eyes before we ever eat with our mouths. Presentation is key here and I'm not seeing a good deal of it in a lot of these.
Not that I'm a professional chef by any stretch, but when I do make food, it always looks good. Half of those look like someone hurled on a photograph and posted it.

I felt slightly gross after having a sandwich made with battered fish and a little mayonnaise and relish.
But this. This is a whole new level of gross. This barely qualifies as food in my mind. Lots of red meat + grease + sugar does not equal a meal fit for consumption.
Although the poutine sandwich looks okay- I prefer poutine on its own, though. I'm half French Canadian so I can't help that. ^^;
Edit: I have to agree with Blues here. The pleasure of eating isn't in stuffing yourself with as much grease and corn syrup as possible. What ever happened to enjoying a variety of delicate flavours?

I will just say that battered mars bars are the best thing every. Seriously, try one. Eat it as soon as it's cool enough and you will love it. Let it cool down too much and it's merely ok, but eat it hot and your taste buds will think they've gone to heaven.
Nothing on that website is food.
Edit: The mars bar cake might make a good dessert, and the bacon turtles were kind of cute but I think the Reuben Balls are the only thing on this website I might try and those would more than likely be a lot better if they weren't deep fried.

I made something like this recently. It was a hamburger, right, with lots of cheese and greasy fries and dressing and wheat buns, but I also squeezed an omelet in there. About 2 inches thick with plenty of cream, cheese and sausage.
And I had four of them.

Is it just me, or does the idea of putting sugary things on meat seem really gross? I prefer to keep my sweet and savoury separate, thanks.

The bacon turtles at least look great, but the meat cake is at a point where it's gonna taste like little else but salt and grease. I guess a slice of it on a sandwich could be good, though. Sliced such that the one pictured would feed around, I dunno, 20 people.
Geminex

Definitely.
Huge amounts of food, sure, fine, as long as it's possible to eat it, but maple syrup on meat? Frosted bacon? Hell no. Keep desserts to desserts.

Also the bacon and chicken narwhal. Probably because those are some of the few things there that aren't just everything in the fridge deep fried and smothered in anything else. The spaghetti and meatball cake would probably taste okay too, since it only looks like spaghetti. :p

... maple syrup on meat? ... Hell no.You put some maple syrup on some sausage right now and know what it feels like to be wrong.
Meister

I only have hot dogs here and I'm not running to the store for bacon just because the internet tells me to. Even so, that wasn't bad. Maybe I'll try another later and fry it first.

Sausage and bacon are awesome this way.

Just drink directly from the syrup bottle, that'll make you happy.
Weirdos.
I'll try the British Canadian breakfast, though. (That is to say, the english breakfast smothered in maple syrup).

Yeah, but as penises go, that is one tasty looking penis.

That reminds me - I'm going to make myself a real breakfast tomorrow morning.
Scrambled Eggs
Bacon
Biscuits
Sausage Gravy
Hash browns
Some good old fashioned Southern cooking.
Mmmmm...

Y'know, this morning I just finished playing five hockey games in 36 hours. I rewarded myself with a Meat Lovers skillet, which was a 1.5lbs of shredded hashbrowns, cheese, eggs, sausage, ham and bacon. I felt absolutely terrible and guilty and had resolved to not eat another bite of unhealthy food for a day.
Thank you, NPF. I don't feel so bad now, because I look way better by comparison now.
