The Blooming Onion is 20

I think I'll just shut it down for the day. When a college football blogger dunks on you in your own gym, celebrating the 20th birthday of the Bloomin' Onion in terms far funner than you might even have imagined, it's time to focus on not quitting your day job:

Not only did Outback have the audacity to take a 27 cent onion, slice it in an innovative flower shape, coat it in no more than two cents of batter, salt, and pepper–oh, and their secret blend of yuMmy Spices and inGredients!– and baptize it in the sweet roiling fury of a deep-fryer, friends. No, Outback goes a step further and charges you over twenty times what they paid for it in the first place and serves it with mayonnaise, motherfucker.

Read it all, if you dare.

Fast food is not only dangerous but it's also an evil empire targetting the most innocent minds - our children's. Say no to fast food!

Holy Crap!
If that description of the Bloomin Onion doesn't say it all, I don't know what does.

That single entre covers nearly 2 days of many peoples required calorie intake without really giving anything good back to your body.

Thank you for the blog.
I love your style
