Food Fights: The Biggest Culinary Scandals Of 2011

The name "Grilled Cheese BurgerMelt" hardly does justice to this psycho-brilliant monstrosity, which amounts to three sandwiches morphed into one: First, there's a Friendly's Big Beef burger, but instead of a bun, there are two (count 'em, two!) grilled cheese sandwiches. Open wide.
More after the jump... Cue the requisite gasp of shock as we roll out the numbers: 1500 calories (870 of those from fat); 79g of saturated fat; and a whopping 2090mg of sodium (trouncing the Double Down, which weighs in at a paltry 1380mg of salt).
Stay tuned -- the brave souls at Slashfood will soon be trying this salt bomb (and shelving their skinny jeans for the following week).Cue the requisite gasp of shock as we roll out the numbers: 1500 calories (870 of those from fat); 79g of saturated fat; and a whopping 2090mg of sodium (trouncing the Double Down, which weighs in at a paltry 1380mg of salt).

In Lakeland, Florida, is a neat little Sports bar called BEDROCK'S that has a "Roethlesberger" -- a GIANT hamburger, a sausage patty, cheese, fried onions, lettuce, tomato, and once I thought I saw a fried egg too. Burn the fries and you've got damn good eating (make sure you take your medication before eating it but it is sooooooooo good).
6-24-2010 @8:32AM trippin said... Any burger properly called a "Roethlisberger" would have to have a higher proportion of pig meat. A liberal dose of ham, a few slices of head cheese... you know, that sort of thing.
6-24-2010 @12:09PM Michael said... If you drink beer while eating the Roethlesberger, does it rape you?
6-24-2010 @2:46PM Ev said... HAHA!
6-23-2010 @8:41AM gobo said... That's interesting, martha -- at its heart, all this is is a cheeseburger on buttered toast. But somehow thinking of it as "a burger between two grilled cheese sandwiches" made it revolting for you. I wonder why that is!

6-23-2010 @4:46PM John said... First, how do you know Leo410's daughter isn't 30 years old or older? don't make your self look stupid by assuming it was a six year old or whatever. And its none of your concern what others do, in other words, mind your own business. Dont eat it if you dont want too.
6-24-2010 @8:40AM poochytown said... If Friendly's had paid agents slipping PR into online comments boards they would read exactly like this. Hmmmm... and why not?
6-23-2010 @12:44PM Madison Aikers said... OMG, I gotta try this! I'll be absolutely HUGE if I lived near a Friendly's! :D
