Another Sign That the American Empire Is In Its "Decadent Decline" Phase

At the North Carolina State Fair:  A Krispy Kreme bacon cheeseburger.

 

 

Yes, you heard me.  A burger with cheese and bacon, with two Krispy Kreme glazed doughnuts in place of the bun.

But hey, there's lettuce.

Eric,

It's innovation like that that makes American great! One of these days one of us needs to blog about the symbols of progress in state fairs.

WHAT? NO MENTION OF THE TWINKIES?

[Jeff Yates]

As I blogged on recently - food innovation has always been an important part of our country's progress :-)

Next thing you know, someone will propose eating sausage, eggs, and cheese together at breakfast.

Orin, that way lies madness.

Soon they will split a single Krispy Kreme donut much like a traditional hamburger bun annd thus introduce the "LITE" Krispy Kreme bacon cheeseburger.

The right way to do it is with a single donut, split down the middle. Turn the pieces so that the unglazed middles are facing outwards. That keeps your hands clean when you eat it. Even better, grill the donut a little bit.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Only an academic would see this as some portend of America's doom. Eating this once or twice a year at a fair won't kill anyone.
