Ok so I got one of these things right.

I mean, I am into big foods, you might say I collect Big Food Experiences, so this was pretty much a no-brainer. Now I've had the previous regular omelette sandwich before -- it was ok, a little bland and the grease made the bread fall apart, but otherwise entirely palatable, and fairly impressively Large for a fast food restaurant.

So anyways I go in and I order this thing and first of all I could see it through the paper wrapper. There was so much liquefied animal squirting out of this thing, it had almost entirely dissolved the paper. Keep in mind that this paper is already waxed but the wax could do nothing against this sandwich's organic onslaught. After unwrapping it I didn't even try to eat the thing with my hands; it would have been like trying to stuff a live eel in my mouth. So I went up to the front and asked for a knife and fork which after some explaining they were able to find for me.

The first bite was like nothing I've ever experienced. Mostly I was bracing myself for the taste of fat-impregnated bread, but I'd forgotten one of the cardinal rules: fat has much less flavor than you expect. In fast foods you can often taste the grease because there's little to no other flavor to get in its way, but in this case I was dead wrong. The taste of sodium nitrite and artificial smoke flooded my mouth like a sewer explosion -- I nearly gagged with it, and was barely able to choke down the lump of foulness in my mouth.

The rest of the sandwich wasn't bad though, and I might try one again if I'm ever really hungry some morning.
