I found it gross, as I read on in the forum, that he fried the bacon in
BUTTER :P that's just downright NASTY - yuck. Not that the sandwhich
in itself was anything I would eat...

And yes - I have to agree on the calorie count. If he deep fried the
onion rings and corn dogs (and whatever else) He really can't count all
of the oil used, which I think he did.
