Yeah, I’ve heard of that place and there have actually been a few heart attacks on premisis if memory serves.

Ate at a hole in the wall in Wisconsin one side that had two aluminum trays (kind you see on some salad bars) full of butter sitting on the fryer. Patties sat inside one till time to cook then once cooked moved to the other.

I had a double with cheese - thought I’d pass out it was so good.

But you do have to pay the price in exercise after.

The closest fast food eatery to Virginia Tech is a Burger King. It closed this year.
That’s how bad the food was.

-butter on a steak-

A lot of high end restaurants serve it that way.

I think it's 710 calories but still way too much for a single food item.

My calorie count through breakfast and lunch is 580 - consisting of whole-milk yogurt, blueberries, sardines, and a handful of raw hazelnuts. I'm not even hungry right now and I just walked from Canal Street to 48th Street (in Manhattan) - about 55 blocks.

I love hamburgers but I'm not thinking this Burger King version is exactly the kind of hamburger I would have (1/4 pounds grass fed beef topped with sauteed onions, jalapenos, garlic and thick slice of bacon).

A lot of food has been ruined by garlic

I do the same whether I broil or grill a steak. I use real high grade butter.

I love BK but I will stick with their whoopers. Those are the best. Just had one for lunch yesterday.

So it's tempting..........

Yes they do. Although I’ve also had a steak in butter at good small local restaurants.

On the flip side: a lot of food has been saved by garlic.

Real butter or fake? My bet is some butter flavored margarine with 20% real butter.

You mean that there is actually a Wendy’s where the
burger meat doesn’t taste like it was steam
cooked and unseasoned?
