Super-Sized Meals are No Bargain


Yes, you know super-sized fast food meals are terrible for your health, but you still can't resist upgrading for a few extra cents to turn your carton of fries into a tub, and your cup of soda into a bucket to help wash down that giant, greasy cheeseburger.

The upgrade from a standard meal into a "super-value" or "super-sized" meal seems like it makes the biggest bang for the buck. So you always plop the additional 67 cents or so for a bigger meal you know is terrible for your health, but who can resist a bargain?

But is this bargain all it seems?

A new study reveals what may be a more convincing reason to pass up a "super-size" opportunity—your wallet. While you get about 400 more calories, or 73 percent more food in a super-sized meal over the standard meal.
