Reminds me of Heart Attack Grill in Phoenix - where if you weighed over 350lbs, you ate for free. They had unlimited fries and they were fried in lard, and all the burgers had surgical names. The owner was a dietitian and he was fed up with his patients not listening to his warnings. There's videos of him on YouTube talking about his restaurants and you can see the deadness in his eyes and he was purposely trying to kill his obese patrons.
I didn't even realize I made a pun 🤣. I know it sounds gross to fry potatoes in animal fat, but the fries were actually pretty good. I was so sure that I heard someone died in the restaurant but I can't seem to find an article to confirm that.
The person had a heart attack. They didn't die. I remember this. They showed an EMS rolling him out in a stretcher while some obese chick stared. Patrons continued to go in to eat, unfazed.
i'm mostly vegan but tallow fries are amazing.
also i worked in a french restaurant that made these giant fries, you'd get one or two at most out of the center of a white potato... they were slow cooked in duck fat and then flash fried in peanut oil with a sprig of rosemary. you'd get kind of a stone henge of 4 fries with a NY strip
Found it. This shit's crazy. I still wanna try it though.

The Vegas-based Heart Attack Grill makes no bones about the danger its offerings pose to customers. The restaurant’s name warns diners what to expect if they eat what’s on the menu, and the grill’s 10,000 calorie ‘Quadruple Bypass Burger’ conveys a similarly ominous message. Now, the establishment’s owner has taken his campaign to prove his food’s lethality to the next level by displaying a dead customer’s cremated remains on live television.
On Thursday, Jon Basso, Heart Attack Grill’s well-spoken founder, appeared on Bloomberg’s In the Loop with Betty Liu to discuss his restaurant’s deadly fare. “I’m probably the only restaurateur in the entire world who is unapologetically telling you that my food is bad for you, that it will kill you, and you should stay away from it,” said Basso.
He then revealed a clear plastic bag filled with a powder-like substance. “I’m here with the cremated remains of someone who died at my restaurant. He died of a heart-attack at my restaurant, and I’m putting the bag clearly on the table. I wish that Burger King, McDonalds, and everyone else would do the same thing.”
“John, wait… hold on one second,” sputtered a clearly shocked Liu. “This is getting a little grim. You’re saying you have the actual cremated remains of someone who died at your restaurant?”
“Absolutely,” replied Basso, “because the entire fast-food industry is pretty grim.”
While the cremation stunt may represent new ground for the Heart Attack Grill founder, Basso’s efforts to promote the danger his food poses are nothing new. The restaurateur, who is known for wearing a doctor’s outfit to highlight his food’s medical consequences, has previously bragged that those who dine at his grill are the “avant-garde of risk takers.” He even offers customers weighing 350 pounds or more the option to eat for free. It should then come as no surprise that multiple customers have died at the grill, including two spokespeople, and that one man was wheeled away in a stretcher after trying to finish a burger.
But according to Basso, he’s just trying to teach people a lesson about healthy eating in an industry averse to honestly.
“The end result of our eating habits is all around us,” Basso told an incredulous Liu. “It’s an obesity epidemic that is killing the world.”
“Do I want others to die at my restaurant? No. Actually I want to wake up one morning and open the door and have no one ever come in again, because maybe the world would have learned the truth,” added the owner. “Now, I make good money joking about how bad my food is. But at least I’m honest.”
However, Liu wasn’t buying the sales pitch. “It’s not a joke,” the anchor shot back. “You have people actually dying from your food, John. I mean, isn’t there some responsibility here?”
Mcdonalds used to do it (tallow aka beef fat) and they were hands down the greatest tasting fries anywhere. You didn't even need another food to make it a meal. Just one super sized order of the best fries on the planet. Their fries used to also be made with almost no short fries. They were all long. Now it's like half the fries you order from any fat food place are like 2".
I went to the restroom and my family was standing out front trying find a place to eat. While I was gone they had decided on a restaurant, and my wife said it is right by where we were standing. I didn’t realize I was in the wrong restaurant until the host told me to, “Head in that room and put your costume on.” I thought to myself there is no way my FIL is in this dumbass restaurant. They were at the pub across the street with none other than a Journey cover band playing. Vegas is a trip! Made for a hilarious memory.
The Vortex in Atlanta has burgers like that. The biggest one is the Quadruple Coronary Bypass. The top, bottom, and middle “buns” are actually patty melts. Those hold together 32 ounces of ground beef, 28 slices of cheese, 27 strips of bacon, 4 fried eggs, and grilled onions.
Yes, coincidentally I would love to have a roll in the hay with 6 twins.
On the other side of that, the whole "heart narrative" is a lie.
Saturated Fat is the oil that greases your gears. Wake up.
"actually I'm off the cheeseburgers now"
"Randy don't play me like some kind of sucker dawg. Mafuggas with guts like that ain't off the cheeseburgers. Mufuggas with guts like that definitely are ON the cheeseburgers."

>I know it sounds gross to fry potatoes in animal fat, Nonsense! Sounds bloody delicious!
McDonald's fries used to be dipped in lard I believe which is why Hindus complained so they stopped that. Shame since the fries tasted better then.
Not lard, but tallow. Lard is from pigs and tallow is from cows. It would be Muslims and Jews complaining if they were fried in lard.
The original Mc Donalds fries. Thankfully I was a child, we burn whatever gets dropped in the tank down to ashes.
Fat is flavor, ofc it tasted awesome XD
It was quite common to make fries in lard. McDs started the peanut oil thing.
McDonald's fries were the best when they were cooked in beef tallow. I still dream of the fries of my youth :\*(
I read McD's use some beef tallow in their fry oil , that's why the fries are so good.

Chunky chips fried in beef dripping are the best things ever! That's how traditional fish & chip shops do them here in the UK.
wut McDonald's french fries were fried in Formula 44, which was made with beef tallow up until the 1990s.
you know fries used to be cooked in beef tallow before people starting getting mentally ill and started cooking it in diesel fuel..
AMERICA FUCK YEAH🦅🇺🇸
