Last week we lamented a study suggesting Southerners have too many pill bottles in their medicine chests. From personal experience, one reason, we ventured, might have something to do with the mouth-watering sugar and fat-laden regional fare. Market research at a major fast-food company must be showing sustained popularity for that diet with the rollout of a new sandwich that would make a cardiologist shudder. I wonder if Joey Chestnut could tackle 60 or more of these babies.
