What The Cluck?By Chloe Dinnerrolly (June 21, 2011)
In helping fight the diabetic epidemic that’s stuffing-the-face of Americans across the nation, a KFC in Utah is donating $1 to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation for every Mega Jug sold at the fast-food joint. A fancy name for a half gallon of Pepsi, the Mega Jug contains 50 spoons of sugar, 800 calories and countless BBW dreams. For only $2.99, it’s a Biggest Loser application in a cup.
Oh, the savory twist of yummy tummy irony. A disease caused by high levels of blood sugar, diabetes is brought on by poor eating habits, lack of exercise, and watching Avatar. KFC’s famous secret recipe of 11 herbs and spices of artery-clogging goodness, is the last place next to the smoking sections at Disney World to condone healthy living.
However, not everything on the KFC menu will send Jillian Michaels breathing fire and flapping her wings in an angry food tossing rampage. If you’re watching your weight and concerned about your fully-clothed beach bod, order the coleslaw. Underneath the gallon of mayonnaise and cups of whole milk, there are vegetables there…somewhere.
Diabetes may make you go blind, lose your feet, and have you stabbing your finger daily to check blood sugar levels but the KFC Big Box Meal dinner of 2 drumsticks, popcorn chicken, mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, home-styled biscuits, topped with a 64oz Mega Jug’s mega sweetness, was so worth it.
Now that’s finger licking good
