GLAD YOU ASKED
Fast-food burgers pile on calories, fat
By JEFF ELDER Knight Ridder Newspapers

Q. Which fast-food restaurant's burger has the most calories?
A. Each of the big fast-food chains has its own Hindenburger
looming over the horizon.
And the truth is, I would LOVE to take a great big chomp out of
each one of them. But then my arteries would begin to clog up like a
freeway at 5:15 p.m.
Here's the grease de resistance, according to the chains' Web
sites:
-- Hardee's Two-thirds Pound Double Bacon Cheeseburger has 1,301
calories, including 864 calories from fat.
-- Burger King's Double Whopper with Cheese has 1,060 calories,
including 620 calories from fat.
