FL's Least Healthy Menu Item: Here's Where To Find It

FLORIDA — You might think that a Cuban sandwich, conch fritters, fried chicken or burgers would serve as Florida's unhealthiest restaurant menu item. You'd be wrong.

According to the Eat This, Not That website, the state's most dietary despicable place is Florida's own Fat Sandwiches at Muchies 420 Cafe in Sarasota.

Eat This, Not That is a blog consisting of doctors, nutritionists, chefs, personal trainers and dietitians who post on food, nutrition, dieting, weight loss and other health topics.

"When it comes to eating unhealthy in Florida, you have your work cut out for you, but one locale rises above," the food blog said. "Sarasota's Munchies 420 Cafe serves up a menu for anyone who got hit with strong cravings for unhealthy combos of fried chicken sandwiches loaded with melted cheese sauce or incredibly huge burgers. With a menu aimed at anyone facing late-night munchies, you know this restaurant won't pull any punches loading up their meals with carbs, salt, fat, and sugar. They do have salads if you want something fresh on the side."

The restaurant offers a variety of artery-clogging sandwiches. They include:

• Fat Sandy: Two cheeseburgers, mac and cheese, chicken fingers, onion hoops, spuds and cheese sauce.
• Fat Daddy: Philly works, cheeseburger, chicken fingers, cheese curds, spuds, lettuce, tomato, mayo, ketchup and cheese sauce.
• Fat Morning: Sausage, bacon, scrambled eggs, hash browns, peppers, onions, and cheese sauce.

The restaurant describes itself this way: "At Munchies, we're catering to the 420 culture with late-night, loaded-with-cheese eats, an eclectic and accepting atmosphere, and one of Sarasota's liveliest bars. Locals have gotten to know us pretty well at this point – we've been open since 2002 – and we even made an appearance on Man V. Food. ... Though our fun and alternative style may have earned us some notoriety, we're as friendly and welcoming as we've ever been."
