DMfM's Senior European correspondent, and Vice-President Of Wacky Links, Tim, has reported in with news of a burger, so big, that they call an ambulance as it arrives on your table.
Check out the Six Pound Burger.
But enough of that American silliness. At least the Europeans have their technological research heading in the right direction, namely, a self-refrigerating beer glass :)

Posted by: John in Brizzle on October 19, 2003 04:19 PMThere's a deli called Eagles around the corner from my apartment that serves a six-pound burger with five pounds of fries. (It has some clever name that I can't think of, like the Bigfoot, or the Big Kahuna. Or Gary.) If you're brave enough to order it, several employees actually leave the grill to watch you eat it, and if you can finish, they put your name on a giant plaque on the wall, along with the weight of food you have consumed. They also have a ten-pound burger, which no one orders because it's fifty dollars.
And as for the self-refrigerating beer glass, it brought a tear to my eye. I wish I was joking.
Posted by: Jess on October 19, 2003 07:01 PMTypical American gluttony. The thing that disgusts me about that burger is not the thing itself (even though I'm a vegetarian) but the idea that the people who don't finish it may not take the rest home with them. What a colossal waste of food and life.
Posted by: Jodi on October 20, 2003 04:38 AMP.S. The beer glass, on the other hand (literally, perhaps), is quite lovely.
Posted by: Jodi on October 20, 2003 04:39 AMA woman named Lori Weiss almost finshed the six pound burger. Did anyone tape it? How close did she get?
Posted by: jen on May 1, 2004 11:00 PMShe ate all but the bottom bun! I don't know if she ran out of room, or time. I can find anything more than a couple of on-line blurbs about it...what a shame.
Posted by: richard on May 2, 2004 08:52 AMWithout some containment, it’s rather like trying to farm without scarecrows, on the theory that the hungry birds are part of the free market of the farm, or letting the irrigation go wherever it likes, without channels to keep it from seeking the lowest point of the field. Healthy systems have their boundaries.

Ok, I know it really does seem like Chicago is it's own state (and it wouldn't break my heart if we seceeded) but I think you
mean "Illinois State Senate."
