Last Friday the GS Supermarket chain in South Korea unveiled "The Greatest Burger" featuring a fried chicken patty (aw, where's the beef?) topped with tomato, cucumber, lettuce, and pickles, for a total weight of 600 grams (21 ounces) and a diameter of 25 centimeters (9.8 inches), according to The Straits Times. Each burger comes in a large cardboard box and is meant to be shared between six people (like Burger King's Pizza Burger). The regular price is 12,000 won ($10.70), but it's being sold for only 5,000 won ($4.50) until Thursday. The burgers sold out on their first day.

For those who read Korean, there's more info at edaily.co.kr, hankooki.com, and kyeongin.com. (I'd give more details, but the powers of Google Translate can only do so much.)
