Emergistani dietary habits:

The official food of Emergistan may well be MacDonalds.  In fact, there should be a special meal, the 'McEmergency Meal.'  It would have large fries, two double cheeseburgers, two milkshake and two large sweet teas.  The idea being, when you take a friend or family member to the ER, you'll want to eat.  And so will the patient!  I mean, a person can't be expected to wait around with 10/10 abdominal pain but without a snack, right?  Anyone who works in Emergistan has observed this phenomenon.  Followed by the negative labs, negative CT and most important question:  'How much longer?  I'm starving!'  (Meal would include a work-excuse prize, or coupon for disability evaluation.)
