Turned tables
Overheard in a Northern Virginia Outback Steakhouse:

Elderly man surveying one of two Bloomin’ Onions just brought to his table, to five of his same-aged male buddies: “Good God. Can you imagine how many calories are in this thing?”

Sadly, I know. Kinda. I did a post about the insanity of calories and fat in food at Chili's and wrote, in part, "One Awesome Blossom with Seasoned Sauce contains 2,710 calories and 203 grams of fat."

Mmm! Keep your local ER on speed dial!

Ooh, I wish I hadn't read beth's comment. I'll console myself by believing that fried pickles have fewer calories.

Multiply 42000 grams of fat by 9.

If I live long enough to be described as elderly, I promise I won't be worrying about fat content.

He should be more concerned about how much time he and his five friends are going to spend in the bathroom after they finish their Bloomin' Onions.

It would be funny too if they all ordered Diet coke with their "Jack and cokes" ...
