INGREDIENTS OF THE DAY:  Apocarotenal

When I begin to entertain the thought that fast food couldn’t get much worse than it already is, some restaurant chain comes up with some new, ultraprocessed concoction that greatly exceeds the norm.  A little over a year ago Wendy’s introduced the “Big Bacon Cheddar Cheeseburger Triple,” apparently part of the "Made to Crave" menu, i.e., sandwiches designed to satisfy food addictions.  In this episode I explore the nutritional profile and the ingredient composition of this health-threatening sandwich.
