West Virginia: Hillbilly Hotdogs' 10-pound burger

There’s a reason chef Jamie Oliver picked Huntington, W.Va. for his eating makeover show Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution on ABC. With over 31% of the adult population qualifying as obese, the Mountain State clocks in at No. 3 on the list of fattest states. Huntington is home to Hillbilly Hotdogs and to, among other monstrosities, a 5-pound burger (pictured), a 10-pound burger, and a 15-inch hot dog.

Ingredients: 10 pounds of beef, bread, two heads of lettuce, two pounds of pickles, three tomatoes, three onions, 25 slices of cheese

Fat content: 10 pounds of hamburger meat clock in at around 800 grams of fat. That’s an entire day’s worth of fat for more than 12 women, without even counting the cheese.
