Tried to eat a double quarter pounder, once! Never again! :dead:
However, I have noticed that with better quality beef. Say something from ground sirloin, I can stuff myself easier.

Had the best burger I've ever tasted, recently. A place off the beaten path outside of Santa Fe.
Bobcat Bite! It was 10oz green chili cheeseburger! It went down, fast enough!

How about the new KFC mashed potato, corn, chicken, cheese, and gravy bowl? Looks like something I would make myself, but I can hear my arties clogging as I watch the commercials.

I was in the East Broad Street area yesterday and noticed a KFC that said "NEW" "Bisquit Bowl". I started picturing their mashed potato bowl with bisquits added. YUM! Has anybody heard of this yet?

The mashed potato bowl from KFC tastes great by the way.

this doesn't beat the Good Morning Burger

We take eighteen ounces of sizzling ground beef, and soak it in rich, creamery butter, then we top it off with bacon, ham, and a fried egg. We call it the Good Morning Burger.

Sounds like a combination of the hangover burger and a Culver's butter burger.......

The fast food joints got away from this type of thing after Supersize Me came out. Apparently they think people have forgotten about that movie. Just wait till Fast Food Nation hits the big screen; then they will be eliminating this kind of crap again... or maybe not.

Burger King doesn't care.

McDonald's and Wendy's had both started the trend towards healthy-option fast food in response to Subway's 6-gram/Jared campaign, this was years before Supersize Me hit theaters. Burger King sees a huge market and all its competitors pulled out. Over the past three years, BK has been pumping out TV ads left and right like never before, selling the fact that their burgers are bigger than everybody elses', have more crap on them that isn't good for you (but you'll love it anyway), and generally playing up the concept that BK's serving portions aren't only unhealthy, but they're also cheap and enormous.

It's worked, BK's never been doing better.

The fact is that BK has always had the most unhealthy burger in the business ... the Whopper. You could knock a 1,000 calories off of it by ordering no cheese/no mayo, but then, what's the point of getting one after you've removed everything that makes the Whopper the Whopper?

The bottom line is they could come out with a burger that has 16 all-beef patties. That doesn't in-and-of-itself make it bad for you ... it's the cheese on every layer and extra condiments that'll kill you, not the beef patty.

I think McD's and Wendy's are heading back into the "supersize" portions...I ate at Wendy's yesterday for lunch, and ordered a "large" size combo. It seems that there was a recent change, and their new "large" size combo is actually larger than their former "biggie" size. What used to be "biggie" size is now "medium" size. Makes no sense, but it explains why my meal was more expensive than I thought it should be...and the 1.5 gallons of pop that was served in the horse-trough was a little ungainly, as well.

I heard a while back that Hardee's was going to combine their Thickburger (I think that's what it was called) with a Philly Cheesesteak. Basically, take the Thickburger, in whole, then add the cheesesteak on top, including the cheese and onions and whatever else you get on your cheesesteak. Anyway, when I heard about it on the radio, the reporter said, "Hardee's has not yet apologized for this sandwich." And I was thinking, "Apologize for what?" It's not like they force-feed people into eating anything on their menu. If you don't want the 5 bazillion calories, don't order the flipping thing!

I think that since the country has become a "it's not my fault" place, and where lawsuits for their children being so fat become the law of the land, people have become total wusses. A restaurant should be allowed to serve a 5-gallon bucket of the skin off of pieces of fried chicken. And they should be allowed to cover it with bacon grease and serve it with a side of mayonaise. And if you eat all that, you shouldn't be surprised when you suffer 5 simultaneous heart-attacks.

This thread reminds me of the SNL commercial for the "Taco Time" taco:

A crunchy all beef taco smothered in nacho cheese, lettuce, tomato, and special Southwestern sauce; wrapped in a soft flour tortilla with a layer of re-fried beans in between; wrapped in a savory corn tortilla with a middle layer of Monterrey jack cheese; wrapped in a deep fried gordita shell smeared with a layer of special 'guacomolito' sauce; wrapped in a corn husk filled with pico de gallo; wrapped in an authentic Parisian crepe filled with egg, gruyere, sausage and portobello mushrooms; wrapped in a Chicago-style, deep-dish, meat lover's pizza; rolled up in a blueberry pancake; dipped in batter and deep fried until it's golden brown; and served in a commemorative tote bag filled with spicy vegetarian chili.

That's a great skit, but the stacker reminds me more of a Gillette Fusion razor. I think BK figured that if more blades could increase razor sales then more patties could increase burger sales. I wonder what will come out first, a six blade razor or five patty burger?
