While we were trying to compartmentalize and analyze the food trends of the past year, we came across the top fast food trends of 2010. Here is what we unearthed. The list contains those highly sought after; calorie high treats that are tasty and deadly at the same time.

These are mostly the results of those many experiments that have been happening in the field of food. The simple pasta has been deep fried; the calories are forgotten in the name of creativity and experimentation. Below is a comprehensive list of what we believe is the worst fast food trend of 2010.

Chips as an ingredient

The simple, healthy sandwich has been changed into a crunchy calorie filled meal. Chips have been used as the filling for a sandwich. This is a recipe that has been spelt disaster. The sandwiches are filled with nachos, chips, cheese flavoured chips and the likes. Though it is an enjoyable, crunchy creation, it aalso packs in a lot of salt and calories.

Deep-Fried Pasta

Sometime ago, there was a change in the eating out scene in USA, when the restaurants were going vegan and organic and staying away from fried items. But that is now parse, more and more restaurants have come up with stuff like fried pastas. Though deep fired fish and cheese sticks have been available for long, this adaptation of the healthy pasta into something like this is surely not a done thing.

The High Calorie Salad

There was a time when salads were all about the simple vegan or boiled food that helped you keep tab of the calories consumed. Of late restaurants have been selling salads that have more calories than a drive in burger joint. The next time you order a cheesy juicy salad; do check the calorie count.

Ice Cream for Breakfast

Now a lot of folks top their pancakes and French toast with ice creams, for breakfast. This is not friendly to your waist line. Food like these served with maple syrup, cream topping and ice cream has more calories than what you need for a whole day.

New Food Creations

The latest creation that we hared of is the New York Pizza Burger, to help people who can’t make up their minds about choosing one over the other. This is a 9.5 inch pizza which is topped with a burger, bun and bacon. This concept of combining some of the most popular foods to create something as outrageous as this is ever growing. This means, one is chewing double the calories and the fat in one order.
