A Monster Thickburger bought by a reporter Monday at a St. Louis Hardee's was presented appealingly enough, wrapped neatly in light paper and standing a whopping 2 1/2 inches tall inside a box. But the double-pattied behemoth, bought as part of combo with French fries and a drink, stretched the mouth and stomach, too much for the reporter to absorb in one sitting.

I find their ads offensive. A woman sticking her fist in her mouth; a woman filling her mouth with straws. Yeah, we get it.

I love it! Personally, I don't know if I want to eat this thing, but I don't think people should be in any kind of an uproar. If you don't want it . . . don't eat it! If you do want to, suffer the consequences. This is nothing more than a case of food Nazis!

Makes you want to get in a big-assed SUV covered with GW '04 stickers and drive across town and enjoy one.

Before I die, I'm going to eat the HELL out of one of those!
Of course, considering the caloric content of that burger, it may be the last thing I do before I die...but at least I'll die happy!

I don't understand what is the big deal. This hambuger is 2/3 pound. This same company (Carl's Jr.) has been selling a one pound "Six Dollar Burger" for some time.

After eating College dorm food for the past 4 months, looks damn good to me.

Um, first of all it's a guy putting the straws in his mouth.
I think you may be implying that there is a sexual reference in these commercials. I think the goal of the commercials is that you CAN fit something large in your mouth . . . the monster burger, not what you are thinking.

The person salivating the most? John Edwards.
(Well, okay, Elizabeth Edwards.)

We had a drive in back home that made burgers like that called Zombie burgers...the waitresses weren't hard on the eyes either...
To: Next_Time_NJ
Tried one already. It was mediocre, and not worth the cost. Get their 2/3 pound burger with all the fixin's. Now that's good.

Man...I can't stop looking at that picture of those burgers and drooling. It's like...food porn.

I was a little peeved re: their radio ads equating eating at McDonalds to using a condom; both are methods of birth control because women don't like men who eat weenie burgers from McDs.
I'm getting old. I swear I was more socially liberal a few years ago.
