The guys over at Fancy Fast Food have done it again... Although the 1st photo does look super fancy (and quite inventive!), I actually might prefer to eat this meal in it’s before stage. I still think Wendy’s Baconator is sexist and you know how I feel about pureed meat so this is certainly not the fancy fast food feast for me. 
There’s a catch—it comes on a fast food burger. And you all know I don’t eat fast food burgers. But you never know, maybe they’re really good. Best way to find out is for free (with purchase of any soft drink). Try Arby’s BBQ Bacon Cheddar Roast Burger before Monday (expires 7/13)!
We all know sex sells. So what could possibly make bacon sexier? I think it’s pretty damn alluring on it’s own... but Carl’s Jr. (who caused one woman to call 911 to enforce her bacon cheeseburger) has Top Chef’s Padma Lakshmi to make their Western Bacon Thickburger even more appealing. I haven’t seen the ads as there are no Carl’s in the NYC area. According to an LA Times article, Lakshmi is practically fucking the burger. Hot woman + hot burger? I can see how men can enjoy this. Is it objectifying women & sexualizing fast food? I personally think it's awesome to see a sexy, slim woman eating a greasy, bacon-laden burger. It’s certainly a change from the baconistic commercials we’re used to seeing. I often lust after the most unhealthy of food choices (and then proceed to eat them). However, I doubt I’ll ever have the desire to eat a fast food burger—no matter how sexy it is.
