It's national onion ring day...and some random thoughts on 29,000 calorie gluttony

First, a bit of housekeeping. Today is NATIONAL ONION RING DAY, which is fairly self-explanatory. So we ask you: Best onion rings in the Mohawk Valley can be found at ______________________?

Don't be shy. Coincidentally, fried onion discs can also be found on the Boilermaker Burger.

Speaking of shy, this guy certainly wasn't. Mississippi death row inmate Gary Carl Simmons Jr. was sentenced to death for chopping up his best pal. This extremely bad man was finally executed this week, but before he received the needle, he ordered one heckuva last meal:

 

Inmate Simmons requested the following as his last meal: one Pizza Hut medium super supreme deep dish (thin crust if available) pizza, double portion: tomato sauce, mushrooms, onions, jalapeño pepper slices and pepperoni. Regular portion: 3 cheeses, olives, bell peppers, tomato, garlic and Italian sausage. Ten (8oz) packs of parmesan cheese, ten (8oz) packs of Ranch dressing, One (16oz) family size bag of Doritos nacho cheese chips, 8oz jalapeño nacho cheese, 4oz sliced jalapeño peppers, 2 large strawberry milkshakes, two (20oz) cherry Cokes, one super-sized order McDonald’s French fries (extra ketchup and mayonnaise) and two pints strawberry ice cream (any brand).

 

The Daily Mail estimated this haul at 29,000 calories and 2077 grams of fat. However, it is unknown how much Simmons Jr. actually ate before his execution.

Word is he stuffed down at least half. Needle or meal, either way this guy wasn't long for this world.
