Eating a 2.5kg (5.5lb) Beef Shank is no small feat. Chris and Mark thought they'd have a crack at it, but didn't quite make it. There was still room in the dessert column though!

Wendy's have an offer on their drive through board that says "Double the beef just add 89c". Now for most humans that have a basic comprehension of the English language and math, you would simply multiply the number of pattys by 2. When Ryan tried to double the beef on his Triple Classic though, all sorts of trouble ensued! Fight on my Supersized brothers, fight on!

The first major battle in my second war with Wendy's was fought yesterday. Megan Kennedy, Andrea Grant, and Mike Lilly backed me up as we took on the manager of the Wendy's on the corner of Pensacola and Ocala [map]. You see, it all began a couple of weeks ago when I was ordering at the "pick-up window." I noticed the line, "Double the Beef just add 89¢" [see image below]. Though I am not as well versed in the technicalities of English grammar as I would like to be (or as I have led some to believe), I do know that "double the beef" means no more and no less than twice as much beef. It was clear that if I bought a Classic Single and choose to double the beef for a mere 89 cents, I would have two patties. But what about invoking the "double the beef" offer for the Classic Triple?

Cooks in Serbia Sunday put together a huge hamburger. By the time the pressing and processing was completed at the 16th barbecue competition in Leskovac, the monster hamburger patty weighed more than 62 pounds.

So it was hamburger night at home, and I stopped by the Numero Uno market to get some tortillas for general kitchen supply, and I picked up some additional items for burger night, and things kind of got out of hand. See the notes for details on the various layers.

OAK PARK, IL—Fearful of the prospect of class-action lawsuits, seven of the nation's largest fast-food chains voluntarily agreed Monday to place cheese limits on their own sandwich items.

"With Americans becoming increasingly health-conscious and litigious, the restaurant industry felt it necessary to protect itself with a self-imposed cheese cap," said Paul Conklin, president of the National Association of Fast-Food Retailers. "Gone are the days when we could load a burger with seven slices of fatty, cholesterol-laden American cheese without fear of reprisal."

Looking at this sight, it is funny, that - it is the case that you admire gently but After all, as for knowledge and information, being the case that it is different. You do not know that it does not try doing many things. Recently especially with emotion unstable feeling something. .

What happens when you take 25 guys and give them enough cash for 100 cheeseburgers? It's Operation Centiburger! These guys were determined to consume (as a group) 100 cheeseburgers in one sitting. As suggested here, it would have been pretty kewl if they had've made a giant burger or something...

So on the way back from a boyscout trip, my friend Collin ordered nine double cheeseburgers from McDonalds with $10. While he and two friends were clogging their arteries with that greasy cheesy goodness, we started to think. "Why stop at nine? What is the limit? Are you gonna eat those frenchfries?" Then we thought, "What about one hundred?" and thus operation centiburger was born.

This looks like a damn tasty burger

If you think you had a big burger just because you went to Burger King and had the three pattie Whopper you have not reached the top of big burgers yet. If you want the ultimative burger experience go to Granddaddy’s Subs on W Taylor St, Chicago. There you get this burger: This 6 - six - pattie burger is the top of the big burgers! And this burger also has only 3500 calories and comes with fries and pop. If you are not afraid of the size it’s worth trying it - but be careful because you act at your own risk!
