Extreme Pigouts: Pico Rivera Edition

Alright so this morning, or I guess afternoon when I finally got up from bed, I walked to the living room and my sister was watching the travel channel. The show she was watching was pretty god damn interesting, it was called "Extreme Pigouts." The show is pretty much what its called, it just shows a bunch of hot food spots around different cities in different states around the USA that are famous for crazy ass dishes of food. The showed like the Ben & Jerry's factory in Vermont, and how they have this special thing called the VERMONSTER, which is pretty much an extreme ice cream sundae. If I remember correctly, it consisted of 20 scoops of ice cream, 10 scoops of crushed walnuts, 4 spoonfuls of whatever toppings you want, a couple squirts of hot fudge, and it is topped off with a layer of whipped cream and sprinkles. Then there was this other one that showed off a 7-pound super breakfast burrito somewhere in Denver, and if a female finished it completely, she would get to eat at that restaurant free FOR LIFE.

Anyways, the show made me really hungry and got me thinking, "Where in my town, or somewhere nearby, has an extreme pigout dish that I can eat right now?" And not too long after, I called up friend Bill and we were headed to a local favorite.

This is Jim's. Welcome to it.

I didn't know they still made newspaper porn.

Now this right here is the dish this place is known for. This is Jim's Famous "D.U.I." If you can't tell what it consists of solely from the shot above, let me tell you about it. It starts off with chili-cheese thick cut fries on the bottom, and piled above them are big-square chunks of carne asada, and finally topped off with thick, deli-sized strips of pastrami. More like, Jim's Famous "Heart Attack on a Platter."

Tastes better with some ranch.

Someone doesn't know how to use a fucking fork.

Aftermath of it all.

I dunno why I put this, but Bill handed it to me, showing how Downey made it to the front page of the LA Times (lol for a bad thing though), and how it is above Obama. Yeah, Downey is so much more important than Obama. But I didn't give a shit of either of the two, I was more interested in that crazy ass underwater worm creature pictured right there. DA FUCK IS THAT?!
