Hmmm, Donut burger, it's a concoction that Homer Simpson would truly love.
For those looking to fast track their children in the obesity department or wishing to challenge their cardiologist in a duel of wits, the Gateway Grizzlies of Sauget, Illinois (near St. Louis, Mo.) offer you their latest snack item.
The minor league baseball team has created the ultimate in concession stand staples, "Baseball's Best Burger", a 1,000 calorie, artery clogging delicacy that combines hamburger and cheddar cheese, sandwiched by an original Krispie Kreme glazed donut sliced in half. Priced at $4.50 the baseball club hopes to sell between 100 to 200 burgers a night. Considering each burger contains 45 grams of fat, that works out to 10 cents a gram.
Minor League teams are always looking for ways to bring in more income for much needed supplies for their teams, and we suspect that the Burger is no different.
Mind you, we think they should spend the money on those portable cardiac paddles many sports teams are purchasing these days. Never mind the need to help out the ball players, eat too many of these and the fans will be needing the assistance!
