This shit just got real!

My arteries just contracted shut the moment I saw that. Still, it looks damn tasty! I bet that'd wash down nice with a chocolate milkshake!

A Luther Burger as served at Google's cafeteria in New YorkA Luther Burger is a hamburger (specifically a bacon cheeseburger), with a grilled glazed donut in place of the bun.

[edit] Origins
According to legend, the burger was named for and was a favorite (and possibly invention) of singer-songwriter and record producer Luther Vandross.[1] This origin is mentioned in a January 2006 episode of animated series The Boondocks, "The Itis", in which the character Granddad creates an entire restaurant based on the burger (and other soul food).[2]

[edit] Marketed products
Mulligan's, a suburban bar in Decatur, Georgia, serves the Luther Burger in addition to their "hamdog", a hotdog which is wrapped in a beef patty and deep-fried.[1]

The Gateway Grizzlies of St. Louis, from the Frontier League (an independent baseball league not affiliated with Major or Minor League Baseball), have started serving the Luther Burger, which, in their version, is a deep-fried Krispy Kreme donut filled with a black Angus all-beef patty, melted cheese, and two strips of bacon. Dubbed a cardiologist's worst nightmare, this burger is 1,000 calories, and aside from bringing in revenue from sales, it has drawn more fans to come out to the ballpark: apparently, attendance at games has increased and the burger is one of the most popular aspects of the park. The burger has met with criticism from burger purists and from people who are turned off by the thought of the taste and the health implications.

I don't know if I can handle this thread. I could deal with the FKC Sandwich, and the Luther...... That one was pretty rough to wrap my head around. Now DEEP FRIED Twinkies. I am going to lose all self control and start frying them in mass quantity unless you guys stop corrupting me like this. :?

nothing wrong with deep frying random food items, just let me cross a few off your list that i have tried and do not work out so well:


Mac and Cheese burritos[/*:m:q3k5gq2n]
ham sandwiches[/*:m:q3k5gq2n]
turkey sandwiches[/*:m:q3k5gq2n]
balls of rice pilaf[/*:m:q3k5gq2n]
Snickers bars (they do sell these at fairs and such but i have yet to make it work and not be a chocolatey mess)[/*:m:q3k5gq2n]


now something that does work and is quite easy:

String cheese, chilled, rolled in egg then Italian bread crumbs. Coat 3 times, deep fry until golden brown and shazaam! giant mozzarella sticks :mrgreen:

IT WORKED! It worked great!! yummmmm

I used funnel cake batter, and egg as well. The chocolate did melt during the frying process, but was contained in the yummy batter. You guys gotta try this, it is delicious.

Alright, so this thread has officially decided my first day's meals once I return from the NCO Academy here at Ft Huachuca. A Luther Burger for breakfast and a KFC thing for lunch with the fried ice cream for dessert (topped with fried twinkies and fried snickers of course). It'll probably all come back up later because of the grease and sugar, but oh well... it sounds like it would be worth it.

Well I went to KFC today after work and go one of these. That is a LOT of chicken!!! :lol: Kinda reminded me of chicken cordon bleu except with bacon instead of ham. I also feel like I just gained five pounds. I went with the potato wedges too. So it was ok not the greatest sandwich ever. Would I get it again yes but not very often.

I just was looking up stuff on this KFC sandwich. Apparently there is some controversy around it. If you ask me I think that is a load of crap because you choose what you eat and are forced into nothing...

and also, afterwards as i was getting gas i am pretty positive i saw captain Price from Modern Warfare walking past a 7-eleven. I went to grab my phone and snap a picture but it was too late, he was gone in an instant. I don't like leaving everything to imagination so basically this was what i saw:

"The fried Double Down has the same amount of calories as a McDonald's Big Mac and fewer calories than a Burger King Whopper (670 calories)."

Although I'm sure it's quite tasty, those look like Elephant turds stuck between two buns with melted cheese on them. I'm not trying to be a dick mind you I'm just saying not all food that tastes good necessarily looks good.
