Does anyone wonder why I love King of the Hill:
When the Arlen City Council bans the sale of foods containing trans fats, Sugarfoot’s Restaurant goes out of business. Hank, who feels the ban is an infringement on freedom, encourages Strickland to fix things. Strickland’s solution to the problem is to sell his delicious, trans-fatty foods on a lunch truck so he can evade the law. Bribery and police corruption ensue, and Hank begins to have second thoughts on his activism to repeal the ban. However, before he can back out, a rival lunch truck (Rooster’s Roost) terrorizes the Sugarfoot truck, and a turf war develops. The fierce competition convinces Hank to stay on board with Sugarfoot’s until they can shut Rooster’s down. With the help of a reporter, Hank puts his best investigative skills to the test and becomes determined to unearth evidence to bring Rooster’s down and show the city council that sometimes the world just needs tasty, unhealthy fare in the “Trans-Fascism” episode of KING OF THE HILL airing Sunday, Feb. 10 (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
