Man Eats 15-Pound Burger: Cool or Gross?

GiggleSugar — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 04:00:00 -0700

This dude downed a beast of a burger in just under five hours to win $400, some T-shirts, and the title of "Dude Who Ate a Giant Burger." The Beer Barrel Belly Bruiser (I'm not making that up) weighs 20.2 pounds overall, including the lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, onions, and peppers, and a cup each of ketchup, mayo, and relish. I'm kind of revolted and awed at the same time. Then again, if it were 15 pounds of nachos I'd be all over it faster than you can say "que bueno"!

Mmmm!

It's not just clothing fashions that change, but food fashions, too. Take this delightful recipe for Consomme Tongue Treat from a Campbell's cookbook circa 1968. Imagine whipping up this appetizer and serving it to your guests. "What exactly is in this?" "Well, a little unflavored gelatin, Tabasco sauce, and you know. . .cubed cooked tongue." (What kind of tongue, of course, remains unspecified.) This is the part where all your guests run out screaming.

Move Over Rachael Ray!

There's a new chef in town, and he's wearing very little besides white pants and a white headband. (And his EVOO? He just wears it on his chest.) This hot, crunchy hunk of a man can come over and teach me "how to make bread" any day of the week! (Please keep aerial flips to a minimum, though, mister. I have really noise-sensitive neighbors.)

Flashback: '60s Eat Rice Ad

"Va-rice-ity" is the spice of life. And if rice is too ~~plain~~ healthy, then why not dress it up with - oh, a little bacon, sour cream, or shredded cheddar cheese? I'm sure your man will love that.

Late Night Burrito Place: The Power Ballad

GiggleSugar — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 13:00:00 -0700

Did you just get fired from Radio Shack, did the woman you tried to pick up have a boyfriend who threatened to kick your ass, or did you just total your car? Whatever your damage, there's nothing like a late-night burrito place to provide the greasy goods to cure what ails you. God bless America and good night.

Lady Platnum Sings: Give Me the Food

GiggleSugar — Thu, 15 May 2008 07:00:00 -0700

Miss Platnum, née Ruth Maria Renner, is a Romanian-born singer now living in Germany. It really doesn't matter where she's from, though, because she's saying something all women understand in every language: "Give me the food if you love me." Mmmm. Deep-fried potatoes - Opa!

Ahhh! It's Bacon Me Crazy!

GiggleSugar — Thu, 15 May 2008 02:00:00 -0700

Last week, we reported on a dude who ordered a 60-slice bacon cheese Whopper from Burger King. The fast food chain lived up to its promise and made it his way, but bacon boy couldn't stomach the grease in the end and didn't finish. Lo and behold, we have a new ~~contender~~ dumbass in the race for high cholesterol. He cooked up a homemade heart attack - using a pound and a quarter of bacon - with intention to eat every last bite. Did he do it? Click here to find out. And please, don't get any ideas. Too much of a good thing is never a good thing.

Especially after the CheeseFest I just returned from. (Thanks, Fit!)

Dream Wedding Cake: A 42-Pound Cheeseburger

GiggleSugar — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 04:00:00 -0700

As a savory food lover and a fan of people with a good sense of humor, I love this story. Tom and Kerry Watts of Norwich, CT both love burgers and decided that substituting a 42-pound cheeseburger (the equivalent of 100 quarter pounders) for a wedding cake was the way to go. Tom, a firefighter, said of their unusual choice: "Not only did I get to marry the woman of my dreams but I also got to have the burger of my dreams in the same day." Love it!

Who doesn't love to raid the fridge dressed like a three-year-old? They're having so much fun!
