A Hamburger Today
Believe It or Not, This Is a Burger
AHT readers know about The Counter, the SoCal burger joint where you build your own burger using a checklist (right). Most readers would probably never consider checking EVERYTHING on the damn list, though.
The resulting burger is pictured above. Yes: That's a burger. (I thought it was an ice cream sundae when I first clicked to this page.) The gargantuan behemoth monstrosity cost dude about $84 pretax. Here's a rundown of what those greenbacks bought:
Now how many toppings does this burger have? FIFTY-FOUR. We're talking more than the number of states in the US. That's 10 types of cheese, 27 toppings, and 17 sauces. And oh yeah, a 1 lb beef patty with a honey wheat bun. For anyone who's ever gone through a drive-thru window at a fast-food joint and joked, "Let's order every single item on the menu!" this is pretty much the same thing...."
