If you look at the nutrition chart, she's just a little high on fat and salt and low on vitamin C so it doesn't look all that bad.

She's eating no worse then a 17th century British Naval Ensign.

Oh there will likely be a few In-N-Out trips as well, but sometimes when you're drunk you just really want 20 of something.

This thread made me curious about Inuit traditional nutrition (and how people can have a good diet in extreme situations):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inuit_diet

Because the climate of the Arctic is ill-suited for agriculture and lacks forageable plant matter for much of the year, the traditional Inuit diet is unusually low in carbohydrates and high in fat and animal protein. In the absence of carbohydrates, protein is broken down in the liver through gluconeogenesis and utilized as an energy source. Inuit studied in the 1970s were found to have abnormally large livers, presumably to assist in this process. Their urine volumes were also high, a result of the excess urea produced by gluconeogenesis.[9]

Traditional Inuit diets derive, at most, 35-40% of their calories from protein, with 50-75% of calories preferably coming from fat. This high fat content provides valuable energy and prevents protein poisoning, which historically was sometimes a problem in late winter when game animals grew lean through winter starvation. Because the fats of the Inuit's wild-caught game are largely monounsaturated and rich in omega-3 fatty acids, the diet does not pose the same health risks as a typical Western high-fat diet.[10]

Vitamins and minerals which are typically derived from plant sources are nonetheless present in most Inuit diets. Vitamins A and D are present in the oils and livers of cold-water fishes and mammals. Vitamin C is obtained through sources such as caribou liver, kelp, whale skin, and seal brain; because these foods are typically eaten raw or frozen, the vitamin C they contain, which would be destroyed by cooking, is instead preserved.[11]

I cannot eat more than 2 Mickey D's meals in a row. This girl could do this for such a long time with no apparent ill effects maybe proof that we as a species do evolve to suit our diet or living conditions.

Don't worry, I'm on the same trip. The first thing I did when learning our hotel locations is google map the nearest In'n'Out burgers.

If you want diarrhea.

Just go to the Tam's, it's a little east of the 405 and Manchester. Delicious Mexican food goodness. You're on your own after that though.

I really need to get my memory checked.

I full sized this video to watch, and by the end I was thinking "I should put this in the funny/cool thread on CalgaryPuck". When I close the video I realize CalgaryPuck is why I'm watching it.

Off to McDonalds to get a 10 pack.
