The unhealthiest food ever

Posted by Brett Singer at 6:30 AM on October 3, 2008

Are you ready to be nauseous?

This item – canned pork brains in milk gravy – has a whopping 3500mg of cholesterol. That's 1170% of the U.S. recommended daily allowance.  OVER ONE THOUSAND PERCENT.

For comparisons sake, let's look at some other cholesterol-laden foodstuffs:

McDonald's Breakfast Items

Sausage Burrito and orange juice: 130 mg, or 43% of the U.S.R.D.A.
Egg McMuffin and orange juice: 260 mg, or 87% of the U.S.R.D.A. (that damn orange juice! It'll getcha every time.)

The poster who put the pork brains label up on digg calls it "Instant Heart Attack." I got chest pains just reading it.
