"Like other Hardee's burgers, the Monster Thickburger features 100 percent Angus beef patties. In this case, it's got not one, but two 1/3-lb. charbroiled patties, topped with no less than four strips of bacon, three slices of American cheese, and some mayonnaise -- all on a buttered, toasted, sesame seed bun."

That is disgusting. Not to say that giant burgers are disgusting but there is a line between normal, disgusting and too big that it's gotta be great.

mmmmm I love big hamburgers.

If you feel too fat, you have shoes and a road. Run it off.

I'm sure this burger will wet the appetiates of many. I know I would at least try it but the problem is that americans rely on fast food these days for lunch and/or dinner. Hell, about 60% of the american population is obese. Not fat or overweight but f'ing obese. Do you think these people work out?

Fast food chains are part of the problem. Its not really their fault, its the persons. Who could turn down great tasting food at low prices? Why cook when you can eat out. Your food will be ready in 5 minutes. Not enough? Want more? Super/King/Biggie size it! Eat up you fat bastards.

mmmmm damn, gotta get me one of those.

Actually, it's more along the lines of 20%. Not that that's exceptable but your numbers are way the hell off.

I dunno about that. I know I was reading months back that the number was 60% and rising. I'll do some research and find out what the media is coming up with.

EDIT:

Ok, I did some reading and I did get my facts confused. Over 60% of americans are overweight and more than 30% are obese.

Look around you america and realize that 6 out of every 10 people in this country is obese....amazing.... Yeah right, 60% of Americans are not obese, that would mean about 150,000,000 people in this country are...and i doubt those numbers.

Yea, it's all the fast food restaurants fault for making everyone fat. Okay, so maybe they're partly responsible but very very little. People control their own lifestyles and it's always someone elses fault. :rolleyes:

Anyways, that looks pretty damn good. A little too much for me, but it still looks good.

I'm not saying that the fast food industry is completely at fault but they're not helping. I did say its the persons fault. There are other factors to american obesity, not just eating the wrong foods but lack of exercise is also a big problem. So along with partly blaming fast food chains, we can also blame computers. How many of us work at a computer? How many hours a day do you spend sitting at a computer during your work week. I know I spend about 10 hours a day, four days a week sitting in front of a computer doing work.

monster burger has been out for like 5-6 years now at hardees/carls jr.

they have been making the monster burger for like 5-6 years now at hardees/carl's jr.

News to me. Although I never had a Hardee's where I lived. I just saw this on the news this morning.

Heres what the article says; "First there were burgers. Then there were Thickburgers. Now Hardee's is introducing the mother of all burgers -- the Monster Thickburger(TM).
"
According to the article, they once had it on the menu. Then they started the Thick line menu. And now they brought back this monster and added it to the thick line menu.

True. But I'm sure they will soon have their own versions of the monster burger. Its all about keeping in pace with the competion.

the monster burger and monster thickburgers are different things.

the old monster burgers were double quarter pounders.

YUCK. My maximum daily intake of fat is a self imposed 90g. That is fucking disgusting.

Oh god, I'm gonna have one of those every day for lunch now. :smokin:

That's alotta cow.....

Man I love the thick burgers but DAMN 107grams of fat! and 1400 calories! WTF I will never eat one. But then again I don't have a weight issue either.

The Big Mac and Whopper USED TO BE much bigger, by the look of the picture. It was hard to finish one, but they gradually shrunk them down to the tiny things of today. How can a Burger called a Big Mac be only four bites?

its funny how they always look soo much bigger in TV, but ones ur order one, its like TINY!

so it's not just here that we're paying 5 bucks for a burger the size of my palm?

Thick burgers, Hmm.... I like the sourdough thick burger with bacon. I run 3 times a week so I eat what ever I want. Marine Corps biatch!

*drool* That's a whole lot of cow.. for a guy that's trying to gain weight, that burger looks mighty good. I'll take 2.

The commonly quoted figure is ~ 30%. 60% refers to the proportion that is overweight.

Anyway, i love burgers, but 2/3 of a pound? That's just wrong :disappoin

man, i love being 6'1 weighing 150 pounds and being able to eat whatever the hell i want!

Skinny guys unite!

Lets just say all americans are fat and obese,then let the normals be counted, by far the easier option.

Thats one big ass burger. I'm no small person (250 ish) and I don't know if I could eat that thing :uhoh:

Damn and i thought that the Big Harv was fatty. But damn thats a good burger, and this one looks damn good too.

"Harvey's website suggests the Big Harv - its new burger with a six-ounce patty - contains the highest protein count of its sandwich selection - 35.6 grams - and its highest fat content, at 33.5 grams. And that's before cheese and any garnishes are piled on top."

Lets just say all americans are fat and obese,then let the normals be counted, by far the easier option.

Sounds good. But you have to do the same for England since the obesity rate is almost the same as the US. :rolleyes:

"A further 32% of women and 46% of men are overweight, meaning that most people in England (58%) are now either fat or obese."
