But we found a dessert that requires a signed waiver before you partake.

Step into the 5 Spot on Queen Anne, and you realize immediately it's not your average cafe.

But these days, you can gain a pound just be reading about their newest dessert -- a banana, battered, rolled in sugar, deep fried, served with ice cream, whipped cream, and macadamia nuts.

It's appropriately called "The Bulge."

5 Spot co-owner Jeremy Hardy says the sinful surprise has a definite purpose.

"It was created to make a statement about frivolous lawsuits and accountability."

The Bulge is the 5 Spot's response to recent lawsuits where restaurants are sued over customers fat intake.

"It's just, just absurd," says Hardy.

And to illustrate his point, all who order the Bulge must sign a waiver.

"Nobody gets it without a waiver, no exceptions."

It's the real deal -- and is designed to stand up in court:

"I, release the 5 Spot from all liability of any weight gain that may result from ordering and devouring this sinfully fattening treat."

It goes on to release the 5 Spot in the event eating the Bulge causes love handles, saddlebags, or junk in the trunk.

Despite the waiver, Hardy says he sells between 40 and 50 a day. He hopes all who partake are getting the real point.

"People are accountable and responsible for their own choices and decisions," he said.

Just sign your name, and you too can have The Bulge...and eat it too.
