Good burgers

  While at physio for my wife the other day apparently her physio person and some of the others there were discussing this new burger place near us. It is known for this burger where they put 1/3 lb of cheese over the burger such that it forms a skirt around the burger and ends up all melty and crisp around it. Kind of a UFO shaped cheese ring that sticks out of the burger by a good inch from the looks of the pictures.

  I like a lot of burgers and a variety of things in them. Eggs, jalapenos, all sorts of veggies, cheese of most sorts (other than blue), sauces of most kinds. To me however this looked and sounded kind of horrible not to mention a huge increase in fat and calories for very little taste benefit. Not to mention they are charging around $8 for this and using kind of crappy meat in the actual burger (hoping to cover it up with the cheese I suspect).

  I wonder why people are so drawn to something just because it is new and are so willing to declare it as better. Some new things are but a lot of new things are not always better, just a way to get you to pay more for what you are already getting :| . Another thought on this, it is just before lunch and I'm now drooling for food. I really need to get something to eat. See you next time.
