Minor League Ballpark Offers 4,800 Calorie Deathburger
We have an outrageous new contestant in the running for the title of world's most wasteful burger. The West Michigan Whitecaps are adding a 4lb, 4,800 calorie burger to the menu at their ballpark in Grand Rapids. It's called the Fifth Third Ballpark Burger ... but I'm calling it "The Deathburger" -- catchier name, right? Leave it to America's favorite past time to dream up the world's most wasteful burger.
The $20 burger is made up of five beef patties, five slices of deliciously over processed American cheese, nearly a cup of chili, and a liberal quantity of Fritos and salsa stacked high on a 8" sesame seed bun. Apparently, if you can eat the entire thing in one sitting, you get a free t-shirt -- and most likely a trip to the emergency room. Wow, what a deal.
At a time when even unrepentant meat pushers like Burger King are looking to foster a relationship with vegetarians, it seems kinda ridiculou to offer a 4,800 calorie burger. Judging by its ingredients alone, the Deathburger has to be tied with the Bacon Explosion on PETA's watch list.
