Of course, there's nothing inherently wrong with calories taken out of context of all food one eats. The Outback Steakhouse Aussie Cheese Fries with Ranch Dressing is a perfect complement to some diet, somewhere. For instance, if the only other thing we ate was grasses and roots that we dug up on the hllls, the aussie cheese fries might balance it out nicely.

I disagree-- NO ONE ANYWHERE needs 182 grams of fat in one meal!

Also, there's nothing inherently good in this dish. At least with whale blubber, you'd be getting heart-healthy fish oil - a lot of "good" fat.

SO TRUE!
