Well, this is why I should be fat.
Does anyone remember that website, thisiswhyyourfat.com? Don't bother looking for it, they took it down. Still, I remember spending hours of my life on that site, flipping through pictures of deep fried bacon and tacos so big they used a large pizza as the shell.
And you know what? I drooled over it. Certainly, some of the things were disgusting, but many made my mouth water.
Today, I've been having the worst cravings for fatty foods. This started with me revisiting the AFK Tavern's facebook page. I wrote a blog about the AFK Tavern previously ( http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=230650 ). It is quite literally my favorite restaurant, though more because of the people than the food. Still, looking at some of their menu items from their recent Warrior Night makes me drool:

THE WARRIOR'S APPETIZER! - four massive slabs of Prime Rib wrapped in Fireball whiskey caramelized bacon, with au jus and horseradish...
THERE SHALL BE FOOD! OH YES, THERE SHALL BE FOOOOOODDDD!!!!
Warrior night is on Saturday. WARRIOR!

Our KING SLAYERS FEAST! FOR WARRIOR NIGHT! One POUND of flat iron STEAK TWO HUGE TURKEY LEGS! Garnished with honey, balsamic, and rosemary LAMB CHOPS! With BACON,CORN and POTATOES just to round it out! Also a side of Lamb and Potato Chowder.
Hell, even their League of Legends themed menu that they had for last week made me drool with their Amumu wrap.
Amumu Wrap: Bacon wrapped sirloin steak and mushroom strips and green onions with tots.
Mmm... seriously, who wouldn't want to devour that cute little mummy if that's what he's made of?
Of course, going on and on about how I wanted some bacon wrapped wonders to eat, I got linked this: http://www.bbqaddicts.com/blog/recipes/bacon-explosion/
![[image loading]](http://www.bbqaddicts.com/blog/images/bacon-12.jpg)
Four pounds of sausage and bacon, all wrapped together and smoked with spices and BBQ sauce. It makes my heart ache to use it to give me heartburn.
Some women may crave chocolates, but I crave bacon and smoked meats. Mm... I think one of the main causes of this food craving is I haven't had a steak in over four months and it's finals week. I guess I'm getting a little tired of ramen and pizza.
Well, I hope my food raving didn't make anyone else hungry... or sick.
;D
Oh, also, speaking of the AFK Tavern, I will be in the area next week through the 3rd, so if anyone wants to grab a beer and chill there (and watch me devour fatty foods like it's my last meal), then just say so!

You're a god amongst women. From whence does your constitution come from. Every other girl in my life faints at the merest whiff of bacon. You totally should be fat girl, but somehow YOU'RE TOTALLY NOT! Omg don't play, you ain't fat girl.
Think I hit everything, feel free to fill in the rest if I missed something. 4/5, I like your costume blogs more.

You can still access the tumblr for thisiswhyyourfat.com as far as I'm aware. Being from the UK the size of some of the portions is still really surprising to me. Plus there are so many combinations of food I'd never have thought of. However, I spend most of my time now checking diet blogs ;_;

Aw, to each their own, I guess, but it looks absolutely delicious to me!

Ah those pictures look so good...mmmm bacon :L
I have to hold back so much lol. If I had it my way I would probably constantly be eating. I can't help loving food so much ffff. Seriously I should be fat as well....more than fat...like obese.

This restraunt looks incredible, making mental note to try to enjoy one of these dishes in the future.

Ahhh, thank you!

Admittedly, while I am a total monster when it comes to eating fatty foods, I can tell you some really tasty things to eat that are healthy for you and won't pack on calories. As I was an avid athlete in high school, I had to balance healthy foods with massive calories intakes (you'd be surprised how much a 135lb girl can eat when she's working out 9 times a week).

Well, did you know that eating snack-size portions throughout the day is healthier for you than eating big meals?
;D
That's what I try to do, I'll take food with me everywhere and snack on at least cheese and crackers between meals.

Just the salt. Food looks good. I love the taste. But JUST the salt- I can't imagine my pulse after eating something like that.
Lamb is my favorite thing lately. Just brazed lamb shanks with mashed potatoes with a good beer. -_-
ugh

I'm a sodium addict, I can't deny it.
Also, good beer is awesome all of the time. :D

I didn't read, I only looked at the meat.
Maybe if you put pictures of bacon in all your blogs they will get higher ratings.
|
Yum Yum Me want bacon : )
|
Nothing puts a bigger smile on my face than when cooking way too many strips of bacon in the morning on a weekend.
Also wow that AFK place looks incredible.
|
That second image... my god.. I'm in love.

Glorious mountains of meaty wonder with sides of excellence. I really wish Alaska had a fraction of the cool things I've seen on this site. I think I have to go on vacation just to visit this place. I bet they put on an amazing BarCraft :D

Godamit Riku, I just ate and now I'm hungry again, T_T.

So hungry and no food at home. Damn you!

OMG if a man sent me bacon roses.... /love

None of those meals sounds particularly unhealthy. Bit too much salt and fats but nothing a bit of movement won't cure. The lamb/turkey/steak one is actually what I consider healthy food.
Bit huge but I assume they're not for 1 :D

Haha, I know!
To satisfy my craving I was a good woman and made sandwiches with grilled chicken, bacon, ranch, avocado and tomatoes for my man and myself.

I was really enjoying a red bell pepper when i read this blog. Now it seems lackluster.

BACON
MORE BACON
JUST COVER EVERYTHING IN BACON
WHY?
BECAUSE YOU'RE FUCKING SMART THAT'S WHY.

I actually made a bacon explosion once, epic deliciousness.

Yes, one day. Because it will probably kill you the day following. >_>

You should go to Fogo de Chao.
First you stuff your face with delicious lox from the buffet, and then spend the next hour or so torturing your stomach with all manner of delicious meats brought straight to your table by gorgeous waiters.
Best. restaurant. ever.

That DOES sounds amazing!
Hm, closest one is Beverly Hills... that's where I want to be!

Expected food pictures.
Did not disappoint

Bunch of grilled meats piled together with sides of mashed and gravy - I assume this costs more than 25$ and feeds a company of 3-4 ppl. Not even bad or disgusting, hopefully all of it is grilled to order, not just assembled warm (somehow I get this vibe). Other stuff in this blog does induce vomit, I don't know why people hate themselves to the extent where they eat garbage in copious amounts, making it rot in their stomach for 12 hours and then brick out semi-digested.

Obesity is a serious problem in the United States. May I recommend a lean diet of bok choy and tofu with rice every day. You will end up skinny like a sapling tree with breath sweet as a lamb's.
+ Show Spoiler +Just kidding. Protect plant life, eat meat instead.

I'm definitely not going to shock anyone on TL with a Japanese joint, but if you ever visit Cape Cod, go here - http://www.misakisushi.com/. It is neither local flavor nor Cape's signature spot, but it rapes everything in a 70 mile radius. As far as I'm concerned 1 full roll and 8 piece sushi (chef's choice) for 20$ should fill you up no worse than a pork chop with mashed does, I think it comes with miso too.

It's cooked to order.
