Slog - Comments on Deep-Fried Bacon Double Cheeseburger: Too Far? http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/05/deepfried_bacon_double_cheeseburger_too You thought deep-fried bacon cheese hot dogs were off the charts, but check it out: This guy beer-battered and deep-fried a bacon double quarter-pounder from McDonald's. (He is, somewhat surprisingly, Australian). The end result--a puffy fried sandwich resting in a pool of grease beside a pile of double-fried French fries--actually looks sort of pretty, but I have trouble believing this guy ate the whole thing in one sitting. For a photographic play-by-play, go here....

Although I shouldn't be surprised, considering your past history of totally destroying English grammar.

I was a little jealous at first cuz I thought that other countries had double bacon cheese quarter pounders. But, it looks like he had to make his own.

You have to let the bacon fat soak the bun first.

Last week it was Cheez-its, now I want fast food.

Curses!

I know girls who are way more obsessed with fried things than I am... (looking at ECB, for example)

ps when the web page is signed "-kath." i would assume that it is a lady signing. I can't think of any guys' names that begin kath-
kath-ander?

Monte Cristo sandwich, with the exception that it has that nasty cardboard tasting beef that McDonald's uses.

It cuts grease in your mouth and throat better than syrupy sodas.
