How many calories are in your favorite UW-Madison drunk food?
You may not remember what you ate in the morning but your body can not forget the calories
You have spent the night getting ready, putting on your makeup flawlessly, and picking out the perfect outfit, all whilst listening to your favorite music. The mood is set for a fantastic night.
The line for the bar was not too long, the bartender gave you some free drinks, and your favorite songs were played at least once each. Then, the bar lights flicker on and you are spun into a string of questions from your friends on where to go next.
Where do you go now? Now that your makeup is smeared, you have spent up almost all of your latest paycheck on drinks, and you are too drunk to realize how much your feet hurt in those shoes.
The only logical answer is, you go get food. Pure, beautiful, fully enjoyed, shameless, drunk food; but, the calories beneath the carby goodness are not so satisfying…
