1. I ate one of those burgers. True story.
Well, actually I only ate 1/8 of it, and could barely finish that much. The future Mrs. GOPisEvil was our waitress, too! :D

7. I don't like this picture of your Future Betrothed as much as I like
Edited on Thu Nov-16-06 08:50 PM by Bunny
the other pic - the one Richardo had. The one I got her to autograph and send to you?

Even though I took it, this pic here does not do her justice - she's a cutie! :D

19. Yes!!!! That's the one!

:thumbsup: Richardo!

Edit to add - I think the burger she's holding is the one we ate. Well, not that *exact* burger, but one that size. I think it's the 9-pounder that we had - I know we didn't get the 15-pounder!

16. And I'll bet you didn't want another burger for a LONG time after that.
I like a burger every bit as much as (or maybe even moreso than) that next guy, but enough in this case it just too damn much. And revolting to boot.

15. Well, it's made for a group to eat.
That's the way I'd eat one, anyway.

17. That's obscene.
Something like that couldn't have originated anywhere BUT America, which says something about how essentially fucked up our culture is.

24. I agree with you.
The first time I saw that huge hamburger was on the Food Channel.

It turned me off of hamburgers for awhile.

31. Actually, it is considered evidence of estimation of worth by volumetric
analysis.

What FReeps and a fair number of dems say about atheists is considered evidence of bieng fucked up.
..... and national sales of junk food does not do wonders for your reputation - and the Pretzledent didn't exactly polish things either.

Oh yeah and your literacy and creationist rates are considered evidence too.

Oh yeah, and your obesity rates. (We're second in the world!)

But not the hamburger.....

Ok actually the hamburger does a bit, I have to admit. Just because of the amount of starving people in the world.


But we all know not all Americans are like the stereotype. :) So don't worry.

20. I ate a BLT once with a pound of bacon on it.
that was a damn good BLT. They also had a Reuben with a pound of corned beef.

22. Isn't that like a month's RDA of saturated fat in one sitting?
I can see me slowing down in a fast way if I ate that.

And I'll bet the person who does eat that weighs 149 pounds or something.

26. Some places have a "if you can eat it all", you don't pay policy.
I've seen several articles that have shown the people who actually finished one like that in one sitting. Ironically, two people whose pictures that I've seen have been young, small, college age looking females. The others I can't remember.

28. ew!
:puke:

Does anybody actually consider something like that appetizing?

Even if you like ground up cheap cuts of meat, the outside is going to be dry and the inside is going to be raw. That much cheese is going to cement your insides shut and you'll be in the bathroom pushing out your insides for a week. The amount of starch in that huge bun is going to have you wired for days.

29. I wasn't serious...
...just HUNGRY. That's since been taken care of. :)

Then again, they do give you something like $350 plus the cost of the burger if you can finish it.

30. Actually, the meat part is baked, so it's cooked through, but it is amazingly flavor-less.
They didn't seem to add any sort of seasoning to the meat, it was very bland. But the bun and toppings were quite tasty. It's definitely not something that should be consumed by one person, though. That would be gross! :hi:

32. Hi Bunny!
:hi:

I don't eat meat, and haven't for almost 2 decades now, but I love to cook and I do occassionally cook meat for friends. I can think of so many ways to improve that burger. It just seems like a waste.
