Human breast milk cheese. That pretty much says it all.

(Thanks Hollon for the tip, and Sarusa for the line: “Try some with the bread raised by her own yeast.”)

There is a £10 breakfast that is free if you manage to eat the entire disgusting mess in under 20 minutes.

Mario’s Cafe in Westhoughton do a big breakfast for £10! Eat it all in 20 mins without a drink to wash it down with and you get it free!

It’s 10 eggs, 10 bacon, 10 sausage, 10 toast, 5 black puddings, tomatoes, beans and mushrooms.

Kentucky Rendered-Beef-Fat-Cooked Chicken

The Consumerist: El Pollo Loco mocks KFC for using beef ingredients in their grilled chicken

Of course, anyone expecting genuine chicken flavor from Kentucky “Battered in MSG and fried in trans fats” Chicken probably would be disappointed no matter what they did.

Incidentally, this led me to finally look at their ingredients statement, and basically the only things on their menu which don’t contain MSG are things like “Caesar salad with no dressing or croutons,” which I think is more properly called “a bowl of lettuce.”
