Burger King Japan and the 7-patty Whopper burger? by Krizia from eatsmartagesmart
Krizia’s post dated 24 October 2009 captured a great deal of attention in the blogosphere (over 19,593 views) and sparked some interesting comments from Krizia’s new readers.
This is taken from her post: “I guess a regular whopper is not bad enough …since Japan’s Burger King restaurants put out a Whopper to end all Whoppers: the 7-patty Whopper burger. The idea is to honour Microsoft’s new Windows 7 operating system, but honestly this is just setting a bad example when it comes to nutrition.” Krizia, 24 October 2009
Comments range from “I WANT THAT!” from someone called Fat Bastard to
“I didn’t even eat it in Japan…I got it from a BK in Waterville, Maine and if you decide you want to try it, just go to your local Burger King and ASK for one. And if you can’t eat the whole thing, at least you gave it a shot. Trust me, it’s worth it, especially if you get a slice of cheese between every patty.” from someone named Jordan.
Thank you, Krizia, for pointing out an excellent example of:
Must-Know Habit for Staying Young – from the Inside Out #48: Don’t expect everyone to like the same things you like. Allow people to be different from you.
Give up trying to change people. If they’re determined to follow a particular path, get out of their way and find something more interesting to do…like looking up “gluttony” on Wikipedia.
Well done, Krizia!

Interesting new site: RoommateFail.com – stupid roommates make good stories
This is a place where you can complain about your roommate. Former, current or other people’s roomies – doesn’t matter – as long as it’s a good story. Bad roommates suck, but at least they make for good stories.

BLOG – 4 – CAUSE
Last, but most definitely not least, I’m pleased to announce “BLOG-4-CAUSE”, an e-book proudly compiled by Joanna Sutter from Fitness & Spice and Lance Ekum from Jungle of Life.
BLOG-4-CAUSE
Joanna explains, “Over 150 bloggers from around the world united to write an e-book to support breast cancer awareness and research. Writers were asked to submit their favorite work to be included in this collection of articles. Together, we created “BLOG-4-CAUSE”. Inside, you’ll find articles that will inspire and tickle your mind, body, and spirit. Not only that, the book contains links to each and every writer so you can read more works from your favorite authors.”
Including mine! Yes, I am delighted to say that one of my posts was selected for inclusion in “BLOG-4-CAUSE” (page 192).
This is no ordinary e-book. Please visit the Susan G. Komen Blog-4-Cause website to learn how you can support the mission to end breast cancer.
