The Quad Stacker
This weekend, I ate lunch at a fast food joint whose name rhymes with Kurger Bing. It's been a while since I've had eaten there and it was a bit of a shock. Did you know they recently added a burger called the Stacker?
Hanging above the counter was a sizable banner advertising the sizable burger that comes in three sizes: double, triple or quadruple (which also refers to the type of bypass surgery one will need after eating it). Due to its sheer scale and repulsiveness, I couldn't tear my eyes away from the picture of the Quad Stacker.
According to this blog entry from Fast Food Facts (where you can get nutritional info about any item offered by places with names that rhyme with McRonalds and Starducks), the Quad is "4 beef patties, 4 slices of American cheese, 8 strips of bacon, and [KB] Stacker Sauce (featuring high fructose corn syrup!) all on a sesame seed bun". Um, yummy?
As I stood there, I tried to imagine eating one, but couldn't wrap my mind around how I would even fit the thing in my mouth. I finally gave up on that warped mental exercise and ordered something I hoped would be healthier: a plain old chicken sandwich.
