girLie-men can't finish this burger


THE UNBEATABLE BURGER

Feeling hungry? Feeling really hungry? Then how about ordering one of these gut-busting NINE pound burgers!

This whopper of a snack doesn't just contain enough meat to feed a football team, it also comes fully-loaded with all the 'fixins'; namely a half-head of lettuce, two whole tomatoes, 12 slices of cheese, two entire onions, a full cup of peppers, plus a 'river' of mayonnaise, ketchup and mustard.

For the price of $23.95, brave - or foolish - visitors to Denny's pub in Clearfield, Pennsylvannia, can take up the challenge that has beaten the appetites of many a hopeful before.

Amazingly, the pub's all-time burger-chomping champ came in the slim form of 90-pound Lori Weiss. Lori came close to eating one tenth of her own bodyweight, but unfortunately the hard-eating lady couldn't find room for the bottom of the bun.

1. That makes me ill just looking at it.
Imagine eating 9 pounds of burger in one shot. Yuck!

But then, I'm very anti-cow eating (and drinking for that matter) because of our Ag Dept utterly (no pun intended) failing to adequately test for Mad Cow in this country, and white washing the BGH business.

4. I'm surprised it's only $23.95
The raw ingredients would probably cost $40 or more at the ole' Stop & Shop.

I'll be in Clearfield, PA, in a few weeks. Can I become the next

WORLD BURGER CHAMPION!!!

10. That's even bigger than the "Ol' 96er"

Do you, like, win something for eating that cholesterol giant?
