How Would You Label the Caloric Content of Fast Food?

Seems the government is looking for comments from the average Joe on how we would like to see the caloric content of food reported on labels at fast food restaurants.

I can think of a simple way to classify fast food items:
A) Fat Ass
B) Fatter Ass
C) Fattest Ass

Who needs to see calories? We all know that bacon-double-cheeseburgers go straight to our butts, right? And thighs in my case. Seriously, for those folks who eat these colossal burgers that so wonderfully come with large fries, do they really care how many calories are in them? Probably not.

BUT, if you are concerned about knowing how many hours you'll have to sweat at the gym to work off your whopper, and have a great idea on how the restaurants should report the info, visit this website to chime in:

Go to Regulations.gov electronically
