While Watching The Food Network This Morning

My wife loves the food network; it’s like her favorite channel. So this morning I thought I would watch some TV with her. Just when I thought I’d seen it all, the culinary version of a three-headed monster appeared on “Paula’s Home Cooking” this morning. She made this burger that she called the “The Lady’s Brunch Burger”. Lets just say that the McDonald’s McGriddles got nothing on this burger. With its ground beef patty, 2 bacon slices and fried egg sandwiched between TWO KRISPY KREME DONUTS, it should be called the “The Lady’s ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR FLIPPIN’ SOUTHERN FRIED MIND Burger.”

Here is a Picture of it from the Food Network page.

This thing just turns my stomach, just thinking about all those empty calories. Now this is just ball park numbers. This is what the calorie breakdown would be.

Item …………………………….. Qty …….. Calories …… Total

Krispy Kreme glazed donuts …….. 2 ………….200 …………400

Whole Egg Cooked, Fried ……….. 1 …………. 90 ………… 90 

Bacon Cooked, Slices ……………. 2 ………….. 70 ……….. 140 

All-American Burger Pattie ……… 1…………… 688 ………. 688

Which Bring us to a Ball Park Total Of: 1318

Remember these are just ball park numbers, as I couldn’t find a good site for the burger patty. Even So I think this thing would kill me from a massive coronary. Thanks Paul Dean for that heart stopping brunch idea.
