Only In America!

Sure, magazines are telling people to stay skinny, not eat, induce vomiting and not have the strength to make it through the day. On the other hand, fast food is fast becoming the only kind of fucking food available to us, so the overweight factor will remain a staple of our everyday lives for a while.

Keeping that in mind, I introduce you to the Moby Dick:


Named after the famous whale (from a book, not based on a true story), this sandwich is comprised of:
• Five quarter-pound fish filets.
• Eight slices of cheese.
• Six ounces of clam strips.
• A third-pound of french fries (nod to Primanti Bros.?*)
• A cup of cole slaw.
• "Gobs" of lettuce, tomato, pickles and tartar sauce.
A fried-fucking-fish sandwich. With eight slices of fake, processed cheese. Unclear amounts of vegetables.

And what is it the Americans are upset about? Who can claim to have put fries in a sandwich first:
Stew reader @masirovitsm point out that Panini's in the greater Cleveland area makes sandwiches with fries on them as well. He prefers the local establishment to the one from Pittsburgh. "Cleveland, represent," he says.
Shit, Europeans have been putting fries in their merguez sandwiches for decades...
