The 50 fattest foods in the States



From health, Rhode Island: New York System Hot Wieners

In the late 1930s, when father-son team Anthony and Nicholas Stevens moved to Rhode Island from Greece, by way of Brooklyn, they opened a small restaurant in the Olneyville neighborhood of Providence. The popular fare—New York System Hot Wieners—is still a regional favorite, and is imitated by vendors and eateries throughout the state.

Ingredients: A beef hot dog drenched in yellow mustard, onions, celery salt, and ground-beef sauce

Fat content: 13 grams of fat for the hot dog and 15 grams of fat in a serving of ground beef. Plus, the ground-beef sauce is usually made with ultra-fatty shortening.

When I worked at Showcase Cinemas I used to gulp those Hot Wieners down by the dozen (not to mention my popcorn lunch and dinner). Christ, what have I done to myself?
