Iconic?...how?




This is a picture of one of the most well known celebrity in America, Paris Hilton eating an enormous cheesebuger. This is iconic because at one point this ad was a commercial for Burgerking and at one point it was extremely talked about. This is iconic because everyone has seen paris on tv and know what she is like will know that she did not eat this burger because she is a twig. This comes to show how ads are so false on there advertisement. A "perfect burger" with a "perfect girl". when in reality woman who look this good will never touch a burger that big and look so perfect eating it. Its really sad how some people accually fall for something like this..."oh if paris eats it then i can to"...sorry but no you wont.

Shake your salt habit

Fast food used to mean fried food, but today food franchises are offering people more health-oriented alternative than ever before. Chef salads, grilled chicken sandwiches and frozen yogurts are just 3 examples.
Tips: Beware of topping burgers with cheese, creamy sauces and bacon they add saturated fats a calories. Pickles, onions, lettuce, tomato, and mustard add flavor without the fat. Steer clear of fried fish sandwiches. A baked potato might be a healthier option, but have it with low fat sour cream instead of butter.
Instead of a jumbo cheeseburger try a grilled chicken, sliced meats or even a regular 2 oz. hamburger on a bun with lettuce, tomato and onion.
Fact: A regular cheeseburger has 360 calories and 180 calories from fat.
