Ever heard of a hamdog? Now THIS is gross!

[bif]

The Hamdog is a hot dog wrapped in a beef patty that is deep fried, covered with bacon, chili, cheese and onions, and served on a hoagie bun topped with a fried egg. Served by Mulligan's in Decatur, Georgia, which also serves the Luther Burger, it has garnered national attention as a result of the national obesity epidemic and the South's infamous distinction as the "Stroke Belt,". As Nicholas Lang, a professor of surgery at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, told an Associated Press reporter, "If you choke down, you might as well find a heart surgeon because you are going to need one."

1. Holy Jesus.

Also, in case someone doesn't click the "Luthor burger" link, it's a hamburger served on a donut instead of a bun. No, seriously.

5. That sounds thoroughly disgusting.

I bet Elvis would've loved it. All it needs is a little peanut butter.

9. I'd like the hamdog, with a side of angioplasty.

I do have to admit that looks pretty good though. Heh.

10. I would vomit if I ate that. Seriously.

My body wouldn't even keep something like that down.

:scared:

12. Looks like someone already did.

22. What the hell is in the top of it? A comb?11?

Wouldn't suprise me.

11. Mmmmmmm

I wonder if you could substitute ground veal for the ground beef . . .


:hide:

[anarch]

13. why substitute?

Just wrap the whole thing in some sliced veal, then deep fry it again! Or maybe stuff it into an entire pig and deep fry that. And garnish it with more eggs.

15. if it was real southern cooking

you'd have to roll it in cornmeal at some point.

14. that's a pretty doodoo lookin' hoagie bun

but aside from that, I say it looks mmmm-mmmm good. Can I get that egg runny-side-up, so the yolk runs down into the chili?

[KamaAina]

19. I was wondering how a place in Georgia would get a hoagie bun

guess they're bogus. Does that make them "boagie buns"? :-)

16. There's only one thing wrong with this meal.

I'd substitute a hot sausage for the hot dog. Other than that, bon appetit! :D

Okay, I wouldn't eat this in any of its permutations. It looks gross.

18. It'd be better if the breading was Corn Flakes.

Just sayin'

20. WHAT??? No maple syrup?
