If you actually consume this entire two-for-$7 deal* you'll be taking in more than 2000 calories, fully half of which consists of fat- and a lot of that fat is the saturated kind. And I'm being generous and assuming that the drink is a calorie-free diet soda. It's basically an entire day's worth of calories for an active adult- and don't tell me that anyone who would actually ingest this crap is making this their only meal of the day.
I suppose this would be ok as a once-a-year treat, but Sonic isn't selling this as a once-a-year treat. Sonic would like you to see this as a perfectly reasonable meal option. Never mind that it's only reasonable if you are struggling to gain weight or have just given up on life altogether. This kind of "food" would leave me completely exhausted minutes after eating it, and very very hungry only a few hours later. In short, it's a bad deal all around.
*And don't even try to tell me that Sonic expects two people to share this meal. There's only one drink here. Nope- if two people waddle into Sonic for this deal, Sonic expects each person to hand over $7- plus a few more bucks for the two drinks not included.
