They were grabbing the lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, meet, everything with their dirty fingers. Usually they wear gloves, right? Guess not.
Gross.

The Pizza Burger: A 2,500-Calorie 'Fat Bomb'
Burger King is set to launch the Pizza Burger - a two-in-one dish that contains more than 2,500 calories and is four times the size of the chain's Whoppers. Skip related content
The meal will delight fast-food fans when it is exclusively introduced at Burger King's Whopper Bar in Times Square, New York, next month.
Besides the beef and a 9.5-inch sesame bun, the Pizza Burger is topped with pepperoni, mozzarella, Tuscan pesto and marinara sauce.
It also comes in six slices, just like a pizza.
According to blogger Me So Hungry, it is the perfect mix between a pizza and a burger.
"The visual highlight was the New York Pizza Burger... it's not bad. Tastes kinda like pizza, but also like a burger," the blogger said.
It has been dubbed the "fat bomb" because, for $13 (£8.40), customers can bite into 2,520 calories - the recommended daily intake is 2,500 calories for men and 2,000 for women.
One Pizza Burger contains 144g of fat - 59g of which is saturated. It also has 3,780mg of salt, which is more than double the daily limit for adults.
John Schaufelberger, Burger King's vice president of global marketing, insisted the Pizza Burger is "intended to be shared".
But he also admitted that it "demonstrates the type of menu offerings our guests can expect".
According to Mr Schaufelberger, the Pizza Burger is a homage to New York, the home of Burger King.

He explained his diet once and he eats lots of whole grains, does exercise etc. And even when he does his challenges he doesn't eat anything the day before and only drinks water. Not quite so glamorous when you look at it.
I did not know that. It is nice of him to take as much care as possible of himself.

He exercises regularly and yet still looks pudgey. That means the food he eats on the show is so full of calories it negates the exercise!
I remember seeing the show which flashed back to the very first challenge on the first show. He's definetely put on weight.

He has gained weight but he was always a bigger guy. He actually slimmed down when he first got the job since he was going to be on TV. I also think a lot of the weight gain is probably due to all the traveling he does rather than the food challenges themselves. It's pretty common for people to gain weight when they travel due to an inability to maintain a regular schedule. He's now travelling over 30 weeks out of the year so it can't be easy for him.

Ah I see. That's what I would do.

Well, there goes my respect for the man.

Beef Taco? Not Quite. More like "taco meat filling"
To be beef, or not to be beef, that is the question in a lawsuit against Taco Bell for what one Alabama law firm claims is the company's dubious pronouncements of ground beef. The suit says the fast food purveyors are misleading customers by advertising its ground beef offerings as such.
Terrible puns aside, the case Beasley Allen of Montgomery, Ala. brings up is a pretty interesting one, as reported by WTOL in Toledo. Beasley says that what Taco Bells calls "ground beef" does not meet the USDA's definition of beef -- "flesh of cattle" -- and should instead be dubbed "taco meat filling."
The suit claims that Taco Bell's meat-like offering is filled with extenders and other non-meat substances listed in the lawsuit like water, "Isolated Oat Product," wheat oats, soy lecithin, maltodrextrin, anti-dusting agent, autolyzed yeast extract, modified corn starch and sodium phosphate as well as beef and seasonings. Yum!
As the USDA definition in the lawsuit says, to be called "ground beef," the product must "consist of chopped fresh and/or frozen beef with or without seasoning and without the addition of beef fat as such, shall not contain more than 30 percent fat, and shall not contain added water, phosphates, binders, or extenders."
So, the beef-like offering that isn't beef has beef in it?
Taco Bell tests out taco shells made from Doritos
said:Watch out, KFC Double Down! There’s a new contender for the title of “World’s Craziest Fast-Food Item.” A Taco Bell representative has confirmed the existence of Doritos Locos Tacos, which feature taco shells made entirely out of Nacho Cheese Doritos. No longer will college kids have to stare down at their Taco Bell value meals and opened bags of Doritos and wonder “What if?”
Sadly, this cheesy creation is not available at all Taco Bell locations. It’s currently being tested at a handful of restaurants, including one in Toledo, Ohio, where GrubGrade got these shots of the taco’s Day-Glo orange shell.
Taco Bell couldn’t tell me exactly how long the new tacos have been in the testing phase, although the YouTube video dates all the way back to July 14, 2010. We can only pray that Cool Ranch-flavored Doritos Locos Tacos are on the horizon.
Oh Taco Bell has nothing on Burger King. Introducing their latest monstrocity, just for Japan, The Meat Monster (make all the jokes you'd like Leo) - http://newsfeed.time.com/2011/04/14/gluttony-not-just-for-americans-burger-king-launches-meat-monster-in-japan/
The burger consists of two hamburgers, a chicken breast, two slices of cheese and three slices of bacon – with just a few veggies, of course, to balance it out. It also comes with lettuce, tomatoes and onion.
