Kanye West To Fatten Up Chicago With New Burger Chain
Just what fat-ass Americans need more of...

Kanye West wants you to know that if you’re looking to pack on the pounds, he’s more than happy to assist. The 31-year-old rapper is the proud new owner of the rights to 10 Fatburger Restaurants in the Chicago area. The chain, which features such items as the “Fatburger”, “Baby Fat Burger”, and “King Burger” is very popular on the West coast scene. We might also add, thankfully, that a “Veggie Burger” from Boca also exists on the menu.
Still, it’s rather unfortunate in a time when Americans could use better nutrition, we’re instead treated to further crap from places like Fatburger; not to mention the impact on the planet of ingesting more meat and building up factory farming.
Kanye West has always been a bit of an enigma — after all, this is the same guy who ordered takeout from the UK last year for a meeting he was having in New York City. Sure, he participated in Live Earth, but with business ventures like this one, it’s pretty clear that PR was the only thing on his mind at that time.
Chicago, we’re sorry. We hope something a bit more healthy pops up on the scene soon.
I’m sure Chicago already has plenty of alternate choices for those who are looking to eat healthy. IMHO burgers, “fat” or not, are less of a problem than all the empty carbs we consume. At least a burger fills you up!
This man is an embarrassment to all black people is what my dear Haitian friend said and she’s right. What a fricking loser sporting his fur coats. Maybe he’ll be mistaken for game.

Quit trying to be everyone’s mother. We have the freedom to eat healthy and the same freedom to eat crappy food. If people want Fat Burgers let them have it. And to Erin this has absolutely nothing too do with race. It just a friggin hamburger!
This is so not healthy.I would not choose something that is not healthy because it would destroy you.Kanye West what is in your mind are you trying to bring more obese people?
Become thin.
