15 (potentially) killer foods to avoid

If you love fried foods, you gotta love Texas and state fairs. At either you can always find giant-sized versions of already-bad-for-you delicacies like "the hamdog" (hot dog wrapped in beef), with two friendly coats of artery-clogging, deep-fried love. While a fried Twinkie may seem tempting, are the health risks really worth the momentary thrill?

If you're curious about which foods will send your cholesterol and doctor into a tizzy, check out Asylum's deadly dish list of 15 dangerous foods.  Many of their featured and deadly food porn shots were (obviously) snapped at some of America's prized state fairs and in the Lone Star state.What do you think? Do any seem worth the artery damage? Deep-fried Diet Coke, anyone?

    what 15 " killer foods "? you only listed 1. where are the other 14? Hey Maggie Nemser....List the other 14 " killer foods " so your reading audience isn't left hanging wondering where are the other 14 listed items. Get your listings all ready to go before you put up the posting. You should have done a better job of listing these things. Try making a bulleted list or other list type. Then your readers would understand what was to be considered " killer foods ". Why don't " fix this small paragraph of yours and turn it into a list as mentioned above and then post it to here.

    donkey_reaper: if you read her post, you'd see that she posted a link to the list and asked people to check it out.
