What do they all have in common?
They all weigh about 140 pounds.
The amount of sugar the average American consumes in 1 year.
In the interest of health, HOTR is going to post a recipe that has. . . . . more sugar than you can imagine. You don't really need it, but you really want it.

Wow. That is a great All American Line up!!
Those brownies might be to die for, literally.
I love brownies! I'll have to try this.
Never heard of Wilson Combat, but the photo looks like a solidly built weapon. Too many AR clones feel like they're made of cardboard and plastic. An M-16 is lightweight, but solid. I have yet to find a clone that measures up to the original, although the Remingtons are pretty close.

Candy Bar Brownies
One box brownie Mix (I used the dark chocolate one) Pick one that makes a 13 x 9 inch pan.
Make according to direction but use less oil. 3 Tablespoons. Regular amount of egg and water.
Spread in pan, pour one can sweetened condensed milk over the top evenly before baking (NOT evaporated milk). Top with 14 fun size Mounds bars, chopped in small pieces and 1/3 cup chopped toasted almonds.
Bake at 350 (even if the brownie box says 325) for 36-39 minutes (my oven, 40 minutes was it).
Gotta' pass Ma'am. The Irish demon, hypoglycemic as all getout.
Perfectly healthy as long as I stick to lots of meat, fish, and green veggies, and I've learned that turnips really are a good substitue for spuds if you do them right. But next to no carbs except what comes in the green beans or cabbage, buffered by all the fiber.
I do manage one or two Guinness or Ten Pennies a day, but that's it for stuff made from starches, and no sugar at all.
I picked up a medieval Irish cookbook, a series of recipes from back before the potato(e) was forcibly introduced, and wheat possession was illegal. Actually, I got two copies, and you'll be licking your chops at some of the stuff inside.
Send me the address of a post office near you and I'll send the spare copy general delivery.

Holy smokes Brigid!! What are you trying to do to us?! The picture alone is 500 calories!!!!
Just when I had learned to love rice cakes and celery, THIS had to come along.
:)
139 lbs of sugar per year?
If you keep posting these temptations that'll probably increase. :-)
Or you could shoot the antelope while driving to the range in your Shelby *with* the AR!
Looks mighty tasty
Imagine that, a Mustang designed to be lightweight...
Anyway, those brownies look awfully good. As in, a-waist-is-a-terrible-thing-to-mind good.

As a recovering Catholic, I can say with reasonable certainty that those brownies are likely a serious venial sin.
And worth every minute of penance. :)
I can feel my arteries hardening already.
I've had a dark chocolate jones lately anyway, this is just an excuse to satisfy it.
Thanks!!
That's a lot of sugar...and I'm drooling.
Wow! Those look great.
Racing antelope... reminds me of the time the hubby and I took the Harley to Taos for the weekend. There was a stretch of barren land on the way of nothing but open road and antelope. Let me just say those speed goats can run!
Ohhhhhh boy!
I'd have to triple my does of Metformin to eat one of those!
I couldn't handle those, just too sweet for me. Believe it or not, I can live just fine without chocolate, or sugar. Sure, it's good, but I just outgrew the taste of it. The one thing I do like is white chocolate, but it starts me coughing every time I eat it. My tongue loves it, but not my throat... Go figure.
Holy Smoke, Brigid! My heart stopped just looking at the picture, and my sugar count rang the bell! I will be trying these out, though, I know my girls will love 'em...
I'd love a chance to shoot something like that, but it's tough when you live in a state that thinks anything bigger than a peashooter is "evil". Gonna have to change that, one of these days!
Cheers from MD's Eastern Shore!
Interesting statistic :D
Now Im hungry for brownies.
Sugar and I have a love/hate relationship...I love it, but hate the way it tends to increase the size of my arse. However, Papa Bear is a diabetic, 1/2 the kids don't like coconut and the other 1/2 don't like nuts...so me and my arse will take one for the team and keep the whole pan for ourselves :-).
Since I am a certified Brownie-a holic, those beauties have me visibly drooling.
But.....I am currently on a dedicated journey of weight loss and physical conditioning,
Soooooo, I will, at this time, by my free choice, turn down your wonderful appearing offerings,
But.....at an appropriate time, I will venture forth and indulge myself with these delightful looking brownies.

Don't race the antelope. You'll lose (and if the game warden sees you you'll also go to jail!) Antelope are a gift to man. Beautiful, challenging, and very tasty if the meat is taken care of properly. Sweet as milk-fed veal. I miss Colorado.
Greyhawk must go to detention for never having heard of Wilson Combat! He can get out if he knows who Les Baer, Ed Brown and Larue Tactical are. Extra credit for identifying Milt Sparks and Mitch Rosen.
And, ahh the sin of those brownies. Simply beautiful.
Ohhhh, drool!
140 pounds of sugar in one brownie? Sounds like something I would eat. lol
See Ya.
One can go into a diabetic coma just looking at those brownies!
Thanks!
H the IH
Somebody's lying here; a half pound of sugar a day. Either they spill an awful lot when the make snickers or somebody's eating more than there fair share.
That is the kind of brownie recipe that really, really makes me mad that I now have (under control thanks to meds, exercise and diet) Type II diabetes. Ah well. Brownies are a weakness for me that I can still indulge in once in a great while without fear. I may have to give the recipe a try and donate most to my friends at work. Then again, cheesecake brownies come to mind, too. Maybe baked with a sugar substitute so that I can have a second helping ... Hmmmmm. Thanks again for the inspiration!!
That is pancreas abuse.
