Krispy Kreme Krapburger

I couldn’t watch this without going “Ewwwwww!”

Ok, so it’s “only” 500 calories. Two points:

1. The vast majority of people already eat too many calories… and too many empty calories at that.  All those “only’s” can add up… fast.
2. If you’re going to have a 500 calorie treat… why eat some gnarly, grease-ball hybrid fair-food monstrosity created solely to be outrageous? Go have something wonderful, instead.

I loved “Doghouse Riley’s” description of this thing:

GREETINGS from the Land of the Doughnut Burger, which, in case you’ve been living under a rock, is the Taste Sensation That’s Sweeping the Indiana State Fair, and God Knows It Needs Sweeping. That’s David Letterman’s line, and if I recall correctly, the Indiana State Fair was what inspired it in the first place. Here’s the recipe:

1. Find a cow which died of something.

2. Grind up all the parts no one would eat if they were recognizable.

3. Form into patties. Fry if there’s time.

4. Serve, replacing the traditional bun with Krispy Kreme™ doughnuts, which, so far as I can tell, are just like real doughnuts, except in place of a doughnut fryer they use Petrie dishes.

Hee-hee!
