"Basically this was a work of love inspired by a Transformer character call Superion, which is basically a giant robot comprising 5 smaller ones."
Hi, there,
I would love to share my creation with my fellow burger and serious eats friends, and I think you will be very interested in having it on your site. Lets just say I am the creator of it, it weighs 14 lbs, and it will make you believe in love. Please advise on how I get get this creature out to the masses through you.
Always,
Dr. Pizz
------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Dr. Pizz,
We would be interested in hearing more about your 14-pound creation, especially if it will make us believe in love. Can you send us some more info and photos? :)
Hi Robyn,
Basically this was a work of love inspired by a Transformer character call Superion, which is basically a giant robot comprising 5 smaller ones, so it got me thinking, and what came about was the 14-pound behemoth. In short it has over 14 layers, comprising eight layers of cheese, four double cheeseburgers, two pizzas, french fries, Burger King chicken fingers, onion rings, and jalapeño cheese poppers.
It is a work of love of all the most luxurious ingredients on God's good earth! I wish you could bless your palate with this creation of mine. I will attach a picture, but I have more pics available if you guys are interested in my tale of love. Let me know.
See? Mutant foods get no love. Foodists make me sad for the culinary world. This type of daring innovation is what we need to end lunchtime boredom and droll dinners.
Too me, it looks alot more appetizing than similar "thisiswhyyou'refat" hybrids that have gotten more positive feedback. I think everyones being a tad on the negative side. I'll bet it might be tasty. I couldn't ever even think of eating such a concoction because I'm old and ate too much crap when I was younger. To your creativity, I say Bravo ! Now pass the bong.
@LikesToEatJunk and RossS: I agree; people totally have their "mutant burger love" switches turned off today. If you take this stuff seriously, ur doin it wrong. Any burger creation inspired by a Transformer is fine by me.
If someone were to sell this in restaurants under the assumption that it is an entree for a single individual, then yes, this would represent what is wrong...blah...blah.
However, it was created by some random guy inspired by a movie. He had an idea. He made it a reality. He took some pictures and wants to share them. He's not asking you to create a Nexus. He's not asking you to eat a Nexus. He's not marketing the Nexus to children. So relax, admire the creativity, and move on. If it helps, thing of it as art, not food.
am i the only one that is just a little disturbed by the frequency at which this type of stuff is appearing these days? glorification of horrible food/eating habits & glutony?
all the bacon stuff started me into this train of thought and it has really come to a head wih the Man Vs Food program. There is something incredibly distasteful about a bloated american running around seeing how much he can stuff in his face.
kind of a shame too because outside that nonsense his features are not that bad and he is relatively entertaining. Saw the Ed Mitchel feature last night for instance, killer.
"@ Abe Forman: Hey man, if it bothers you, you don't have to watch it."
::yawn::
yeah and you don't have to react to my observation and blah balh blah....
I am a media hound, and comment on the things i see. in this case, some trends I would concider "disturbing" or at least dubious resulting from the glut (pun intended) of food related media (blog/non-pro included). obviously everyone in that bus is looking for an angle/hook to bring in viewers, and i have no issues questioning taste in cases like this (the show's, not the viewers).
and I'm not saying I am "right", just observatin'...
This fad is played out, tired, boring, etc. I am Surprised SE gave this guy any recognition and published this. Guess if I put a Subway footlong meatball and cheese between two Dominoes bacon pizzas, I can get my "bacon cheeseburger" up on AHT.
@Big B: I'm going to defend our friend Dr Pizz here.
First off, seems like everyone is missing that his creation was inspired by a robot made out of smaller robots. Making a huge pile of fast food crap for the sake of making a huge pile of fast food crap is not special. If Dr. Pizz sent us these photos with the message of, "Hey look at this pile of burgers and crap I made," it wouldn't really strike a chord...
But making a huge pile of crap with some thought put in to how it's layered and calling it "a work of love of all the most luxurious ingredients on God's good earth!" (tongue placed firmly in cheek) and naming it "The Nexus" (and printing out a name card for it) is different. In my opinion.
It's still a "pile of burgers and crap." You can call it anything you want. I don't care if it was inspired by the Virgin Mary, I believe most folks here are looking for GOOD QUALITY BURGERS and where to find them. I go along with Big B above, let's all go out and throw enormous amounts of junk together, add a burger or two, slap it between pizzas, or hubcaps, or whatever, and call it a "burger creation inspired by dancing nymphs."
Must give kudos for the Superion reference. But I fear this will make me pray for death more so that believe in love. Unless that love is the love I will be feeling towards my toilet as I lean my head against the side of it after chundering from eating this sandwich.
Sorry Robyn, I am not buyin it. Camp references and high production value don't make something blogworthy in my opinion.. well, not worth of *this* blog, which usually doesn't run just any story.
Holy crap, some of you are idiots. This is obviously all in good fun, and is meant to be absurd and FUNNY. If you don't like it or somehow it offends you (WTF?), why waste your time and ours commenting on it?
'This stack of burgers makes me angry! I must disagree! I protest!'
Dr. Moreau? You're Dr. Dufus! Obviously all of the people that made negative comments here have prehistoric palates and/or digestive systems. Go make munch on some quinoa or another ancient grain you cavemen.
If you were offended by this post you probably are upset because dr. pizz doesn't love you. I drive a trans am and watch movies on my laptop while it lays on my chest.
@ resisionrepies why are u even here? ur website has a disgusting reciept for zuchini and cornuts gratin? what's wrong with u? the only thing that shoudld be gratin is cheese all over some nachos.
attention: power brokers @ AHT, please banish this site to the nether of the internet http://www.recessionipes.com/ absoltluey disgusting!
NickP - if this is called stupidity, what is it called when you spend your time reading about it and commenting on it? More stupidity?
jkdrummer - thinking is a good thing. Try it.
RossS - I salute you.
Buckethead - Take the bucket off your face and realize you're reading a post about burgers. What did you expect? On second thought, put the bucket back on.
JudgeFudge - Richard Simmons called. He wants you to return his glitter shorts.
Chefhorn - Move on from this site ... soon. You don't have the stones for it.
Abe Froman - Yes, you're the only one.
Big B & Oneiron - You can legally get married to each other in Hawaii now. Book your tickets. Move along.
TattooedCheese - A night that does not end up somewhere near the toilet is not a good night.
For all the lazy haters out there, if you hate this creation so much, beg your mommies to return your Wii Fit, and waste your time there.
This creation is for purists .... for men ..... viva la SUPERION ... for tonight, WE SHALL DINE IN HELL!!!!!!!!!
@oneiron: It would be one thing if all we published were crazyass burgers. We don't. If you're looking for "quality burgers," there are plenty of them here.
My goodness. You are all ridiculous. This conversation has been going on forever, and why? Because some people can't deal with what others post. If you don't like it, move on! Look at something else! The internet is a large place. Just because it's there, doesn't mean you have to comment on it! This guy did something interesting. It involves burgers. Therefore, a website about burgers should post it. Whether or not you AGREE with it being posted is another matter entirely, and one you should take up (VIA EMAIL) with Serious Eats staff, who I am certain would love to hear from you. So, you either say, "Wow that's pretty cool!" or "Not quite the burger for me, but thumbs up for the guy who took the time to create that!", or type those fingers onto a different website, and get a life. I think that this is pretty cool. Sure, we have seen similar things before, but without AHT, I wouldn't have known someone took the time to create this...and I think it's pretty darn awesome. So thumbs up to you AHT for posting this, and thumbs up to this monster's creator!
"So, you either say, "Wow that's pretty cool!" or "Not quite the burger for me, but thumbs up for the guy who took the time to create that!", or type those fingers onto a different website, and get a life."
snap, is THAT what we are supposed to do?
sorry, the interwebz iz fer big boyz n big grlz and a motherload of opinions that get thrown around. to suggest these should never be negative is naive (amongst other things).
honestly, if you are to sensitive to observe criticism from afar it is you that needs to find greener pastures.
honestly, if you are to sensative to observe critisizm from afar it is you that needs to find greener pastures.
or you can stick around, because I have an AWESOME idea spawned by this one: I'm going to DOUBLE the size of this bad boy and pour THREE large streawberry milkshakes over the top.... get it??? GET IT?!?!?

No thanks, you keep it. Ugh. It's like everything that's wrong with our attitudes about food in this country in one photo.

How is that 14lbs? My guess is maybe 5-7lbs of food max. I think someone needs to notify Adam from Man vs. Food that he has a new challenge.

And as anti-fast food as I am, and yes I agree this represents all that is wrong, blah, blah, I can still laugh at it. Meh. :)

I wasn't really feeling it until it got to the jalapeno cheese poppers.
But now all I can think of is how can I make one of these from scratch... and serve it as a dinner for four.

wow i am floored with your degree of n00bness. he didn't mean it measures 14 lbs of weight, but 14 lbs of love.
open your eyes n00b. the world is more than the metric system.
what weighs more, a pound of matter or a pound of love? a pound of love because it has cheese in it.
