I don't think much needs to be said here.. but.. for interest sake..
From my local paper..
The Heart Attack Grill in Las Vegas lived up to its name again this week after the second person this year collapsed while huffing down a bypass burger.
On Saturday night a woman was taken to hospital after suffering an apparent heart attack while eating a double-bypass burger, the joint's owner told ABC News. She is now recovering in hospital.
In February, a man at the same restaurant had a heart attack while finishing off a triple-bypass burger.
The hospital-themed restaurant makes light of the negative health-effects of its high-calorie fare. The waitresses wear nurse uniforms, and the restaurant promises to cure anorexia and heaps piles of flatliner fries onto its hungry customers' — or patients' — plates.
Customers over 350 lbs. eat for free and a prominent sign reads: "Caution: This establishment is bad for your health."
A year ago, the grill's 575-pound spokesman died at 29 because of complications with pneumonia.
Owner Jon Basso says customers are risk-takers and they know what they're getting into.
Asked for comment, he said: "She was doing what more people should do, enjoy themselves!"
