Just look at food trends in the last two decades. The healthy eating paradigm of the 00s had a huge backlash, where people went out of their way to create the most unhealthiest food dishes imaginable. Bacon, pork, fat, salt, sugar, pizza, wings, burgers.

The fast food industry loves this shit, hence the baconator, triples, doubles, meal deals with burger, nugs, fries and soda.
