For when too much is not enough

James Waterton (Perth, Australia) Health • How very odd!

Exhibit A from the United States. That 100 pattie burger looks tasty...

(Spotted on Marginal Revolution)

Exhibit B from the United Kingdom - wait a few seconds to be diverted.

Both sites for the epicureans amongst us, most certainly.

"Too much of a good thing can be wonderful!"

"I can resist everything except temptation"

That burger was looking good - until i got to the raw meat bit..... all i want now is something beefy and deep fried to got with it. Washed down with sugary caffinated drinks or failing that lots of beer!

OTOH, your British food nannies have found a new target.

As my old Russian lit professor used to say "Nothing exceeds like excess." Now I gotta get some superbrews into Texas.

The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling.

We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, 'Porcupines', Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.
