Every year, the Center for Science in the Public Interest gives out its "Xtreme Eating Awards" to the least healthy things chain restaurants are serving up around the country.  

Here are some of this year's winners . . .

1.  IHOP's Cheeseburger Omelette with a side of pancakes, at 1,990 calories.

2.  Buffalo Wild Wings' Cheese Curd Bacon Burger with fries, at 1,950 calories.  That's about the same as eating five bacon double cheeseburgers at Burger King.

3.  The Carnivore Pizzadilla appetizer at Dave & Buster's, which is the combination of a meat lover's pizza and a quesadilla, at 1,970 calories.

4.  Cheesecake Factory's Pasta Napoletana, at 2,310 calories . . . making it worse for you than eating an entire pizza.

5.  The loaded sweet potato at Texas Roadhouse, which might make you think you're adding a vegetable to your meal . . . but adds 770 calories.

6.  And the Flying Gorilla cocktail from Cheesecake Factory, which is a 950-calorie alcoholic milkshake.

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
