feel blued-ed just from looking at it
I don’t know what “blue-ed” means but I’m pretty sure I’m too…
I Don’t know what “blue-ed” means
but I’m pretty sure I’m too…
Bloated?
I’m an American and this makes me want to throw up.
agreed. i am also embarrased. i would NEVER eat this. please believe me, rest of the world! we are not all like this!
I want to belive, but i cant. Sorry, really sorry.
seriously, this will only reinforce the stereotype that the rest of the world has on you o.o
*gag*
Burgers aren’t meant to go with sweet bread. Besides Krispy Kreme’s donuts are horrible.
They lasted less than 4 months in my town before they were forced to shut down due to no one wanting them.
Yes there are Americans that over-eat (and many that don’t) but anyone willing to eat this should be taken out back and shot…KFC’s Double Down monstrosity was bad enough!
Dude, I agree, this sounds nasty, and the Double Down literally made me sick to my stomach just thinking about it, but you would want to SHOOT someone for simply wanting to eat something? Jeezus…
You do know that over half the adult population is overweight, right? So you’re announcing that there is a minority of Americans who aren’t fattasses? Probably already a basic assumption…
You know what, I’m overweight and it’s NOT from eating crap like this. As a child I had asthma and none of the medicines really worked for long, save to keep attacks from becoming bad enough to put me in the hospital. Guess what the doctors thought would be a great idea? “Hey lets give someone with limited mobility STEROIDS! That should help bunches!”
okay i get your point that crap like that is not the cause for YOU being overweight, but i’ll bet at least 3/4 of overweight people are fat because of eating too much of this kinda crap.
also, wth would they give you steroids?
It was a specific type aimed at improving lung function, nevermind the negative side affects when it really didn’t help at all. I’ve got pictures of me at 4 adn 5 years old when the asthma first started to become serious and before the various tried treatments. I was a healthy weight.
They probaby gave him (or her) steriods because doctors now say the ability to breathe is also part of a healthy lifestyle.
Crazy, I know, but those damn doctors think they know everything…
snark win.
Because those steroids are anti-inflammatory. Thus far the only effective treatment for asthma. Not to be confused with anabolic steroids…
lol, which is probably exactly why this person would be confused by the doctor giving me steroids since most people don’t have any knowledge of them except illicit use of them by sports stars.
They probably helped the lungs yes, but not anything else. XD
those are awesome, ky state fair’10
Response FAIL.
Sadly, this is one of a few examples of something known as the Luther Burger…
Poster makes it sound like there’s something wrong with that. You rather go to England for a nice big slice of steak & kidney pie? Or France for calf brains sauteed with a mushroom that costs about $500 bucks because of its special “Creme de Merde” flavor?
How ’bout a run down to Ethiopia, where it’s been rocks on the menu for 50 years? Or Thailand for some yummy scorpion roasted over an open goat-crap fire?
I could go on, but I think I’ll just have that Donut Burger instead.
Says the country which invented Corn Syrup and Spray on cheese.
I’m sorry im going to be a stereotypical American and say spray cheese is the sh*t. Sorry for being fat both metaphorically and in real life, or kinda chunky at least.
90% of statistics are made up on the spot, so your numbers mean nothing.
Rose you obviously don’t understand humor.
Whoa, hold on. Ethiopian food is actually awesome, you xenophobe. And I’m not sure where you live, but most places in American have pretty great Thai restaurants.
Do you ever think anything you don’t say? You’re making the rest of us Americans look bad.
seriously, whats wrong with diversity -.-
The Thai and Ethiopian menus in America *are* edited to be suitable to American tastes. They do indeed use things like goat crap for cooking in some cases where they don’t have the benefit of electric stoves.
I’ll take good ol’ American “Thai” food over real Thai food any day. Not really into rotten fish sauce or freshly undead snake hearts, the plant that tastes and smells like pig feces that Thai people love, or anything like that.
like fattoler points out; it isn’t the unorthodox menu that’s the problem, it’s the “death by obesity” factor.
It is not the meal itself that is the issue. It is the vulgarity how it has been brought. This is an example of how a society has become to live for food rather than food to live.
Come to Portugal where you eat real food.
Not only that, but we also can distinguish dessert from the main course.
i deeply endorse this ad
@AndreGon:
Bolinhos de bacalhau… How are deep fried dough balls with fish in the middle any different? Ok maybe the glaze is the difference..
Hey wait, why I am I defending the donut burger? It is just one more step to our self destruction. I think they still server “pancake” sandwiches at major fast food chains too… American cuisine really makes all the jokes and arguments about other countries’ terrible foods invalid.
you mean the ones with the little chunks of “syrup” baked in?
Bolinhos de bacalhau are made with codfish, potatoes and eggs, that’s it. It beats Donut Burgers by a mile, flavor and health wise.
Went to the Portugese yesterday.
SO.YUMMY.
O, you must eat only “real American” food like pizza.
(P.S. Pizza is Italian btw, and Italy is in Europe if you didn’t know that)
Psst… it’s actually Greek in origin. And Greece is in Europe if you didn’t know that…
The first real Pizza was made by Italians in America, but like the other guy said, it had decent from Greece. People often get confused with the “Italian” Part.
Ok fair enough, but my point was that American’s don’t eat only American food…
What do those have in common? All healthy… cept the second two where your just making fun of the poor people in 3rd world countries. Now I know Americans are fat and unaware of the world.
What the hell is wrong with a nice bit of steak and kidney?
whats wrong with steak and kidney pie?
at least it knows its savoury and sticks with that. wth is with this doughnut burger?
gourmet
delicatessen
connoisseur
none of these words define what I saw up there.
Who do you think you are saying that British steak and kidney pie is ridiculous?! It’s just pie with a different filling, but you consider it ‘objectionable’?!
Bloody hell, man! THINK! France serve toad’s legs! If something looks too awkward to be served then why is it being served?
…Yeah, that’ll get you thinking.
Also, what is wrong with using goat waste as fuel? Haven’t you heard of ‘methane’?
No toad’s, FROG’S legs, wich is why we french are called “frogs” by British. Btw, it’s delicious.
I’m American, and this made me lol.
thumbs up all the way. xD
It’s funny because Americans are fat. And now to wait for the hate mail.
yes, each and every one of us is fat… now why don’t you reveal your country of origin so we can generalize you, since Americans all do that too….
You mean the Double Bypass Burger?
You’ve probably never heard of it. It’s not in America.
You are win.
Even if it were in America, it’s doubtful that they would have heard about it LOL
Oh, yes REAL mature and a great way to represent the common person of the American population. Idiot!
What about the ones that kicked America’s ass? They must be the s**tty ones, right?
…to which are you refering?
Hey, how’s that Osama hunt coming along? Didn’t find him yet? Or did you just give up?
“Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of humankind.”
Think about the above quote with your stereotypically low I.Q. and get back to me on it. Bye.
And this is why the rest of the world hates America.
I would STRONGLY suggest people like you stick a foot in your mouth and just shut the hell up before you make the situation WORSE.
And that is why people think Americans are stupid.
I love this attititude that America is the centre of the world, so if you haven’t fought a country then nobody cares about it.
Think about it, the smallest country in the world is Vatican City, which has a population of 800, therfore 800 people plus their family and friends (Plus tourists and Catholics) care about it.
The next smallest country is Nauru/Tuvalu, which both have a population of 10,000…You should get the idea.
There is no such thing as a ‘S**tty little country nobody cares about’. Get over yourself.
Vietnam. You didn’t save their asses, you got kicked in the ass by north vietnam, AND its not a s**tty country considering that it’s in any social studies textbook: something you should read once in your lifetime.
Each and everyone of you, no. But 30% of you ARE and you lead the world statistics, i.e. the fattest nation in the world. I am sure donut burgers don’t help the matter at all.
This is actually the first time I’ve heard of this disgusting thing. Krispy Kreme’s Donuts are actually quite disgusting, they’re so sweet. I swear they put sugar in the bread dough and not just on the topping.
What people don’t think of when they talk about how many americans are overweight and such…the state of Texas alone is 74000 square miles larger than Spain. America is a Big country with a big population.
Once again i have to point out the fact that America is NOT the ‘fattest nation in the world’ we are actually 5th i believe.
Actually, you’re third – American Samoa is first with a whopping 93,5% of the population being overweight. Kiribati is second with 81,5%.
Both American Samoa and Kiribati have a population of less then 100.000, by the way.
First of all, that sounds like a horribly dated sample, i’m pretty sure it’s either Austria, or Australia, or A something is at the top.
Second, i’m really starting to care less and less since i’m not actually fat.
What does chunky fall under? Your not skinny but your not really obese?
No hate mail here.
You couldn’t PAY me to eat that thing.
Or that KFC “2 pieces of chicken, with cheese and bacon inbetween” thing they call a sandwich.
And I’m a fat man from the south, in a city that regularly serves a dish that can best be described as “Take whatever we have around and throw it in the pot” (known to the rest of you as “Gumbo”).
lol. btw, it’s called a “double down.” i know this not because i have had one, but because i have spent all my free time since its release ridiculing it.
There is probably a great inside joke about how “Double Down” got its name.
So the rumors of the Colonel, the pig and the cow were true?!
Hey, I tried that KFC thing and it was tasty. Artery clogging, but tasty.

lmfao. this made my heart smile. Oh America. ^— the very reason i’m never moving back.
Wow, i thought the people who responded negatively to this troll were bad, but you actually AGREED WITH A TROLL.
I can’t even fathom how horribly horribly failtastic that is.
lolol! bcuz evrythin n amurica iz bad!!111one!
America!! F**k Yeah!
There’s plenty of European cuisine that’s worse for you than that. Their food is just better presented. But, hey, let’s keep that America-bashing bandwagon rolling, you bigoted f**ks! I’ll also point out as usual that America may be the highest percentage obesity rate, but only barely.
this hasn’t been true for a while. No longer are we the heaviest!
I like how it says “Fresh – Never Frozen.” Like anyone who would purchase that thing is going to care.
Oddly, I’ve done a few dinners using Krispy Kreme as a starch base. It works out quite well, especially if you want a biscuit sort of effect.
However, it’s necessary to get them unglazed (which you can any time the ‘Hot Now’ sign is on.) From the picture, the donut burger seems to have glazed, which sounds amazingly gross.
‘merica
F**k yeah!^
More specifically, Wisconsin. MORE specifically, the Wisconsin State Fair.
This makes me sick, The United States has the potential to be the source the the worlds finest cuisine, it has all the major climate zones and fertile lands from which the best ingredients in the world can be produced, but no. Instead they squander their potential by processing the crap out of everything making it bland and tasteless.
And yes I know that’s a generalisation, but seriously, a DOUGHNUT BURGER???!?!?
Also, as a Brit I admire America so don’t think of me as some Frenchy Anti-American
And why should it be French people that automatically hate America???
I didn’t say all Frenchmen hate America, it’s just the classic European anti-everything American related person is depicted as French.
I find that the average anti-American on teh interwebz lives in America, and rambles on about how great Europe is and how they’d move there… IF THE EVIL SHADOW ILLUMINATI GOVERNMENT DIDN’T STEAL ALL THE MONEY!!!11
I thought that was Russia? Oh wait, other way around.
What? Quite a lot of American action movies have a Russian as the bad guy. Sometimes a Russian organisation. And the bad guy dies. Most of the time… don’t kill me!
I’m an American and I support what you say. One main reason why. I hate what kind of greed our government represents and their lax nutritional regulations, (and don’t give me the “Oh this other country does this.” crap,because a country as technologically advanced as the USA should have better values. I digress, Americans are not ALL fat, myself and my family included, but then again none of use eat fast food. We process the crap out of our food, “to save money”. God I hate that reason. I mean, McDonald’s Chicken McNuggets are coated (before they’re cooked, makes it worse) with a chemical that’s used in breast implants, but no one seems to care about that, or the fact that their hamburger meat is not only unhealthy, it’s not even meat! It’s just some processed by product with a little caramelization and flavor thrown in. Now, I could say more, but please, let all replies to this be heard, I will read them all, no matter how long.
Long Live Teh Interwebz!!!1!!
I know, it’s pretty sickening. People are not willing to change. Anytime somebody wants to change America for the better, they have the media and the government calling them communists or terrorists(this pretty much sums up the way FOX news and CNN have been treating Obama). I think I’m about to lose all faith in humanity Unless SOMETHING gets done to change all of this.
Unless I’m mistaken, the government doesn’t have the right to control the nutritional content of food, though they do have the right to make the producers display it. If they could force people to make food healthier, they wouldn’t have to reorganize the food pyramid every six months or so in another desperate attempt to get the public to pay attention to it.
I’m not sure what the level of tech has to do with nutritional values.
… Why can’t I eat what I wanna eat? Why is it so bad that we eat processed crap? Is it affecting you across the pond? Now, I’m not fat per se (I’m maybe 10 lbs over what I should be and I’m exercising to try and get rid of it), and this burger doesn’t look particularly appetizing. But I’d try it (like I did the Double Down… not bad, too expensive). Is that a bad thing? No, it’s how you discover new things. I forget what it’s called but there’s a style of dish that’s like ham or some meat served with raspberry sauce. I’ve never had it but I hear it’s damn good, but somebody had to try the unorthodox first.
tl;dr Why’s it such a big deal for me to eat what I wanna eat and you never know if it’s bad-tasting until you try.
Ah yes the Monte Carlo/Cristo
Quite good but not something to have very often.
2-3 kinds of sliced meats, 2-3 kinds of cheese, in sandwich bread of some sort then battered and deep-fried or grilled. Served with Raspberry preserves or jam.
Whoever mentioned Europe here? We’re not pointing you out, it’s just a little humor added to the stereotype. Read that last word out to yourself and you might get it.
Actually, yes, the government, through the FDA reserves the right to control the nutritional content of food. The reason they are so lax is because, as with Aspartame, which, I’m going to say it just basically isn’t good for us, they were paid off to approve it.
What I meant by our level of technology, is as far advanced as we are in everything else (medical technologies, computer technologies, etc.) we should be able to recognize that food like this is detrimental to our health, but they of course are going to let us eat what we choose, because they can’t affect free will. They do however need to implement more strict guidelines as to what we should have as our everyday diets.
One more thing I’ll add to the first part of my comment, they can control what goes into food, including natural sweeteners which have no real detrimental effects on our health, but they don’t because the companies say it’s cheaper to just develop new ones, even though they know it’s no good.
You have the best tech and geniuses in the world residing their but doesn’t make the general population any smarter, also i think have the government having to take such measures as to only permit healthy foods then the population are already in mortal stupidity.
Exactly. Just take an average person, and realize that 50% of the people around are dumber than they are.
Uhm…Everything!!!
hello, what the h*ll do u think they use to process the food in the first place? Technology duh!!! Of course the level of technology available to a country has everything to do with how they manufacture and treat their food. If anything It would do America a hell of a lot of good if they went back to the stone age and force everyone to fight for their lives.
Survival of the fittest and all that. Weed out the weak and leave the strong kinda thing, but for America, and probably most other 1st world countries, that wouldn’t leave much so…
Actually it is meat. By law they can’t claim it’s beef unless it actually is.
who comes up with this sh*t? WHO?!?!
Some greedy ass who works for the failing Krispy Kreme folks, probably inspired by catering to mouth breathers who frequent places like that one burger joint I forget the name of, but you can order a burger with like eight patties, eight slices of cheese, half a hog worth of bacon and a jar of mayo on it. You get the idea – people who will be lucky to live past 50 years of age.
Damn, that was one long run-on sentence. Sorry.
lol, but it was every bit worth hearing. if Krispy KRAP had a pair of balls, i’d swing an axe it. ahahaha!!! how disturbingly delectable! unlike the simply disturbing food. >:(
I love Krispy Kreme. I know my Krispy Kreme. Those are not Krispy Kreme.
They’re using Krispy Kreme colours and dotted background. I figured they had a trademark on the theme. *shrug*
It even says “made with “Krispy Kreme Donuts”
o.O
So YES it is Krispy Kreme
F**K YEAH
Its things like this that make me sad that I’m American.
lol, hey if its gonna kill u, u might as well enjoy it! better than dieing eating a piece of parsley and half a glass of water
That’s not dieting, that’s crash-diet-starving and it would be stupid for it would mess up your metabolism and the way your body uses the energy you intake.
(yes I realize you were being a bit sarcastic but still…)
He wasn’t trying to say ‘dieting’, he was trying to say ‘dying’
Well he failed at it..
only in america would they spell doughnut without a u. wait that wasnt the fail?
They also left out the “gh”.
As an American, I’m saddened by this.
Someone ate the g and h.
+ 3
and then … regurgitated?
That’s an alternate spelling, nothing wrong with it. Not sure who coined it or when, but “donut” is fairly common.
but doughnut makes more sense; do you know what dough is?
^Is in agreement. I prefer the traditional English spellings to the American ones..
they spelled it “Donut” because its easier, and you cant really expect people to drive by saying ” d-o-u-g, DAMNIT! passed it!”
We leave u’s out of many different words (like color vs. colour)… e’s too, or we reverse our e’s and r’s (theater vs. theatre). We do it just to annoy the Queen. Oops, perhaps I wasn’t supposed to tell anyone.
You have angered me.
Off with your head!
Danke, mein hard-hatted friend!
(Get the reference, you get 10 points)
lol, I always end up spelling it Theatre…it fits better in my head that way. Well, maybe I’ll stop letting spell-check correct it.
The English language f**king sucks. As far as I’m concerned every word with a silent letter, or any other ridiculous rule applied to it is wrong.
If I put my mind to it I could probably get this point across with half as many characters.
Besides, they made something and gave it a name, its not like they were trying to get it right. If you’re making a name up for something you can spell it however you want.
English sucks? You should try Dutch. Billions of silent letters and ridiculous rules…
England birthed your language. Stop bastardising it, and it is NOT okay to speel leik dis cus simple iz.
And i’m pretty sure that the ‘english’ language is just a bastardized version of german and french.
Language evolves, get over it, you don’t even speak the original english language anyways so i don’t see your point.
Your comment is in English. If you hate the language, and can’t be assed to learn another one, just don’t speak again, ever. All languages have “ridiculous rules” and silent letters. Think before you post, buddy, unless you think in English too, in which case, don’t think, you probably aren’t good at it anyway.
Reminds me of a Jim Gaffigan joke: We’re never satisfied when it comes to food. “You know what’d be good on this burger? A ham sandwich. Instead of a bun, let’s use two donuts. That way we can have it for breakfast. Look out McGriddle. Here comes the donut-ham-hamburger!”
With half of an avocado to make it seem healthy and trendy!
avocado’s are the best thing ever.
I’ve never had it but i’ve heard its really really good. but i still dont think i’d ever try it.
but… if you had a sweet doughnut with a savory filling. I mean that just would not taste good. amirite?
I can kind of justify the Double Down – it’s just a chicken sandwich sans bread, I don’t see why everyone lost their minds over it. This… On one hand, it’s still the same sandwich setup and content, just with sweetened bread in the place of regular old buns. On the other hand, it seems like it would taste like complete crap. Sweet does not go with bacon and beef. :l
As for the “lulz ‘merica!” joke, it’s hilarious in this case, I don’t see why someone could get butthurt over it. But it seems odd that people seem to pretend that the US is the only nation on earth with strange or fatty foods.
It’s not a question of justifying it. You don’t have to justify what you eat.
But it’s 1500 calories, dude. It’s not “just a chicken sandwich.”
That much? Had no idea, still haven’t tried one myself. But I’m still intrigued…
At least the Double Down doesn’t have me automatically gagging. I just don’t like that much meat all at once in one meal. If I was going to have that much meat I’d have a nice quality blu-rare steak.
Compared to a lot of other countries, America’s food doesn’t seem that strange.
Here in Britain we have steak and kidney pie and black pudding (England) and deep fried mars bars (Scotland).
But you have to admit, not even Britain would have something like this. Some of the food invented in America isn’t just fatty, it’s a heart attack on a plate.
It’s a shame, because this sort of thing feeds the stereotype of fat America.
What’s in black pudding, exactly? And don’t feel bad, I’ve seen deep fried… Everything at the Mexican restaurant near here. From Snickers bars to ice cream, they’ll deep fry anything for you.
It’s cooked pigs blood…
Ah, deep frying, started as a tastier way to cook chips, ended up as a way for people to get fat twice as fast.
And who eats black pudding? I’ve never met anyone!
Neither have I have, but it is part of the traditional english breakfast, so someone probably does eat them somewhere in the country.
Indeed, sweet wouldn’t go well with beef and bacon at all. Then again I never liked Krispy’s Donuts anyways. They came into my hometown and lasted roughly 4 months before they had to shut down since they couldn’t compete with the local ‘mom-and-pop’ donut shop.
How bout a candy bar on a hotdog bun? I call it a “Snicker Dog” and its ohhhhh so good! Then when your done you can brush your teeth with Cool Whip.
I would love to watch somebody who eats stuff like this having a heart attack. I wouldn’t even call an ambulance. I’d just laugh and say, “I’d let you use my cell, but what’s the point? Your fingers are too fat to press 9-1-1, or even 0.”
Then I’d laugh more and take a picture of them to put on a demotivational poster.
I really hope you’re joking. That was an absolutely horrific statement. Absolutely horrific.
You know my father just died of a heart attack a month ago (the results of a combination of diabetes and high-blood pressure) and I don’t offend easily but The Queen Is right, that is a horrible thing to say and even worse to suggest that you’d actually do.
And then someone would see said poster, go to your house, and shoot you. Then when your neighbor comes to see what the noise was, he’d just stand over you and say “I’m not calling 911. It’s not like you’re going to help society.”
And then we’d make a horror movie based on it.
Well, I am sorry. That was indeed well over the top.
My apologies.
And then Darrell, you would get promptly charged with accessory to murder for not helping another human being in mortal peril. Posting it online would then earn you another few years to the sentence.
there are no laws in the United States requiring him to help another human being in mortal peril.
its the luther burger!!!
Are all you liberal a$$holes planning on living forever? For the love of Karl Marx, please say no.
are you implying that this is a conservative’s meal?!?! your honor, I OBJECT!!!
I mean really, if there gonna make such a sandwich why the hell would you even bother putting lettuce?
it’s like the whole “diet soda” thing; somehow, it apparently “balances out”
I’ve never understood the math of that sort of thing. If I eat a Big Mac, I know that the lettuce and pickles and stuff combined don’t count as a full serving of vegtables.
Not to mention the type of lettuce used (iceberg) is just empty calorie junk anyway and the hybrid tomatoes used have little to no flavour, so they’re just as useless.
The lettuce is put on because it tastes different with it off, seriously try eating the average burgers at restaurants that have lettuce, without the lettuce. I can almost guarantee it won’t taste as good, unless you don’t like lettuce.
Nothing to do with ‘healthy’.
paullertheballer, im so glad you said that. it IS the luther burger.
Why are you hating on this?!?!?!?! i think its funny, take some time to laugh if your american, laugh at the terrible econemy, laugh at fat people, laugh at yourself. why be all like, “as an american people i know are fat and im not going to do anything to help change anything because i wont try or just stop whining.” JUST SHUT UP, OR LAUGH PLEASE!!!!!
i wouldn’t go so far as to say i hate it, but it is rather annoying to be misrepresented. sure, i’ll laugh at my shortcomings and i’ll take life with a grain (or cup) of salt; but this isn’t MY shortcoming, and it sure as hell doesn’t represent MY way of life. if i went out to a bar with some friends and “that one guy who’s a complete douche to all the girls,” i wouldn’t want him to become our circle’s representative, and i’m not just going to laugh it off.
Most americans don’t hate on the joke. It’s fairly funny, although could have been done a little better. The problem is all these euro-tards who actually take this seriously and think that it’s true about everyone in america.
I’m a great lover of junk food, but doughnuts do not go with burgers. Gross.
I’m really sick of the American=fat jokes. I see a whole lot of skinny women everywhere. There’s a great percentage of the population male and female trying to look like supermodels, as in, way too skinny.
I work with a bunch who spend the whole day eating slices of one stinking apple as their meal for the day cause they think being over 110lbs is fat. Then sometimes they snap and gobble up junk food, and then freak out about it. And they all are always, always cold, wearing hoodies (multiple) even when it’s 96 and humid out. And they look miserable and have that white fuzz anorexic people get. I can’t wait till winter when they find out our place of work is unheated and we aren’t allowed to wear coats, and you get yelled at if you shiver or let your teeth chatter in front of customers. “Always smile! Or else….”
Nobody’s saying all Americans are fat. It’s simply true (statistically verified) that the US is the country with the highest percentage of overweight people in the world, in all the history of mankind, AND that most of their culinary inventions are in the ludicrously high fat and/or sugar content division.
Yes, there are anorexics in America. Also one of the highest amounts in the world. I don’t see how having an abnormal amount of unhealthily skinny people would in any way counteract having an unhealthy amount of abnormally fat people.
actually, Germany is a close follow-up with overweight people – and too-thin young women. I’m blaming fast food industries and Heidi Klum. The former for producing all that junk food and the least for giving young women a false reality where the no 1 rule is: when you are over 5 ft 7″ you should fit size 36 or else you are a fat cow….
Actually, no, Germany is wayyyyyy down in the statistic. The follow up country is Mexico, and then the UK.
Woo go UK, I don’t see why Americans here get upset about this, why do you even care if other nations stereotype you? on a scale of one to ten measuring how much i care that the UK is number 3, I wish i could go sub zero.
Because I want to visit different countries and all I will get from them is hate for no good reason. They don’t know me, they just instantly go “Ooooh your American…huh” Like Britain, I want to go to Britain sooooo bad, but apparently like 90% of them hate us. It’s total bulls**t.
I’m British, and although 90% of the people I know have used a stereotype for americans, we know that it’s only a stereotype, not real. We don’t hate you ^^ (Most of you anyway) but I can’t speak for the rest of the country.
Thank you very much Rose, way to be a good person. Here’s a hug monster
We’ve been to England twice, the second time in 2010. The English are wonderful people (of course there are exceptions, but exceptions exist in every country, including ours). There is absolutely no reason for you to be concerned about being an American in England. God knows I’d go back in a heartbeat.
be that as it may, i agree with … uhhh … The Great Cornholio in saying the whole “Americans are fat” jokes is getting tiresome, if not so already.
with that said, the statistics you’ve pointed out are indeed true, but the problem i see in the statistics is that they’re PERCENTAGE based. percentages (and fractions for that matter) tend to paint a misleading picture, even if derived from fact.
Actually, Mexico passed the US recently, and NZ, OZ, and UK are getting there too.

It’s a worldwide problem. I blame the Internet and comfortable chairs.
And Halo.
And plastic food (that over-processed sh*t)
Lack of exercise is half the problem, the other half is we’re eating too much. Even if you banned all the fast food in the world (and I pray that day comes) it still wouldn’t stop people eating portions of food that are too big.
I don’t think you ever will either.
This is just another example closed-minded stereotypical dumb@sses trying to be funny by making a joke about so called ‘fat’ Americans.
FYI: You could eat one of these every day for the rest of your life and not be fat.
…but you also couldn’t eat anything other every day for the rest of your life and not be fat….
Yah, all i have to is excercose after. The problem is that the market this product targets is hardly the excercise type
haha typo >)
If you eat one of these for the rest of your life you may not get fat because you’ll be dead very soon.
okay Blank lets skip through the stereotypical fatness and jump to them being stupid!
exhibit A- YOU!
Yeah, because the rest of your life would be about two days on a diet of that monstrosity..
If I was about to die though, I would definitely eat one of those
This guy is right, fat food is only bad if you eat it every meal in large quantities without any type of exercise.
Can feel my arteries clogging up by just looking at this *shudders* It’s right in line with fried Mars bars…
The first time I saw a fried Mars bar on a menu was when I recently moved to England. I used to live in the Bahamas, and visit Miami annually, and never saw one. Second day in England, and it’s right there in the kebab place, underneath the ridiculously large order of greasy-coated fries.
Really? I’ve lived in England for my whole life, and I’ve never seen a deep fried mars bar being sold.
Me neither. I’ve only heard about them being up north and in Scotland. Never seen them in the midlands.
Exactly, it’s a scottish food, but I guess Jonn was either very lucky to find one, or he was up North.
I live in the South West and I’ve never seen them here.
You mean DEEP fried mars bars.
In Obese America- You attack your heart
In Soviet Russia, you attack borscht with spoon.
(And then you drink yourself to death with vodka because the grim state of the country has sapped your will to live.)
and americans are the racist ones huh
Not racism this is constructive criticism
you fail at the definition of criticism
Criticism is the judgement of the merits and faults of the work or actions of one individual by another .
Ponder upon these words troll. Ponder hard
A person’s appearance is not “work” or “actions” – it’s appearance.
Im American. I am NOT racist. And sorry but it’s true.
American isn’t a race.
I get stomach acid just looking at that thing. Even if one was willing to eat it and risk clogging their arteries with this s**t, how are they going to digest it? I mean… ew.
I’ve seen this burger on a TV show titled Man V Food. The shows’ host, Adam Richman, makes a living by visiting restaurants around the US that tend to serve what most would consider fairly unhealthy food items, huge portions, unbelievably spicy food challenges and other challenges consisting of immense portions. Some of the things he’s eaten successfully have been impressive, to say the least. Most are just downright scary. You should see the “Alaska” episode. He makes it seem as though every restaurant in Alaska serves breakfasts with a pound of bacon, a half dozen eggs, three pancakes the size of door mats and an extra pound of game sausage. I don’t believe Alaskans eat those meals every day anymore than I believe the average American living in the “Lower 48″ does.
He also went to a place that deep fries everything. Everything meaning Twinkies, Mars candy bars, etc. To my knowledge, there may be a few places here in the US that do this sort of thing, but most of my friends overseas believe we ALL eat this junk, all day, every day. Yep, burgers – morning, noon and night.
I don’t mind that people all over the world believe that all Americans are fat because we all eat things that only a few actually do. After all, I used to think that all French people were jerks until I spent a little time in France. I used to think that all Germans were uptight, conceited pricks until I was stationed there for a couple of years. And I used to believe that all Asians were skinny until I spent 2 years in Korea. You wouldn’t believe how some of them balooned up after they hosted the Olympics.
I visited the US a copuple of years ago and I was quite ready to be served giant portions in restaurants at every meal…didn’t happen once to my surprise. The portions and food items were pretty much what people eat everywhere else with just one exception: hash. I don’t understand why people want to ruin a nice tasty breakfast of bacon and eggs, sausage, whatever by adding a portion of pretty tasteless mush to it. (Just my take on it.) Apart from that the food in the US was great…particularly at the chain restaurants such as Bubba Gumps and Tony Roma’s…..as for cajun food…awesome every time.
Seriously, I don’t know if we have a surplus of potatoes over here or what, but you can’t order breakfast anywhere without getting beaten over the head with hash and hash browns. There’s a Huddle House near here that makes some pretty sweet omelets, but good luck finding them underneath all the hash and toast.
Because hash browns are the greatest breakfast food on the earth when made right, and they only become ‘tasteless mush’ when done wrong.
Look out McGriddle-here comes the donut-ham-hamburger!
Needs bacon.
It’s there, you just have to look REALLY hard!
That is absolutely disgusting. What was the person who created this monstrosity smoking?
Even though everything (including produce with all the pesticides and crap) in America tends to be processed these days, I’m so glad I’m a vegetarian. SO glad.
So ,you include pesticides in produce(which tends to not be much of a problem if you wash your fruits and veggies) yet you’re glad to be a vegetarian.
Eh, so long as you don’t have that smug sense of superiority some get.
Darwin FTW. And it isn’t limited to America…
JIM GAFFIGAN JOKED ABOUT THIS, SAYING THAT SOMEONE WOULD MAKE A HAMBURGER WITH 2 DONUTS INSTEAD OF BUNS
IT HAS COME TRUE! ALL HAIL GAFFIGAN, PROPHET OF THE DONUT-HAM-HAMBURGER!!!
This item was invented and is still served at the Gateway Grizzlies stadium in Sauget, IL.
As mentioned above it was on Man vs. Food, among other shows on Travel and Food networks.
And yes, you can get bacon on it here; along with every other thing under the sun.
An odd statement, “America.” “Thin is in,” as they say, and for each fat person in America I can show one who is far too thin. People who don’t live here shouldn’t presume to spread stereotypes like this just out of petty hatred.
Here are some American values for you – the freedom to pursue happiness and the right to property. Obviously, some people choose that product to be their own and to pursue what they choose to be their happiness. Enjoy!
I have eaten one of these before. I love hamburgers, and I love variations on them. It was…. interesting. Good to try, but not something that I’ll try again. And yes, the entire time I was eating it, it was thinking “mmmm America”. Its not something you eat everyday- just something you try once for the fun of it.
Although I will say the best variation on a burger I ever had was from a street vendor in Belgrade. It was amazing.
America-Still stealing ideas from the black folks….
Look it up…..And those who are ashamed of this s**t should move to england…USA USA USA!!!!!
As a British-born American Soldier, who has been around the world twice, eats his vegetables and is training for a marathon, I have only one, simple addendum to this: F**k Yeah!
The funny thing is, never in my 18 years of existence have I seen anything like this being served…. and I live in Texas. Nobody that I’ve ever met has ever heard of something like this being served. I would never eat this. Nobody I know would ever eat this. So no, this is NOT part of American cuisine. And to suggest that it is a part of our cuisine is hypocritical to say the least, because every nation has its share of odd or unhealthy foods. So you can take your stereotypical comments with a grain of salt
im an american and this is just insulting. so incredibly insulting. i cant believe people would assume that we actually eat sweet potato fries!
Actually I’ve had sweet-potato fries and they’re quite good but best in small portions.
I’ve had that burger. It is suprisingly good. I’m not afraid to try new things, and I keep myself fit. In fact I’ve never been even near chubby. I feel likepeople condemning this are just following this new fad of letting people belittle America.
Having been stationed several places around the world, yes people will give you problems at first maybe, but its the PERSON not the COUNTRY that makes them think disrespectful things. I live in America now. And when I see anybody acting like an idiot, I don’t care where they are from. I care that they are acting like an idiot, and that they need to stop FOR THEMSELVES, because they are disrespecting themselves and in turn disrespecting ME.
I love America. God Bless this land.
But I loved Lakenheath, in the UK. Bless you as well.
And, I loved Ramstein, in Germany. Bless you too.
And I certaintly loved dearly, Yokota & Misawa in Japan, Aviano in Italy, and Incirlik in Turkey though my stay was brief there. Bless you all.
Its about Respect. I’m sure that yes, my statement is faulty in someways because yes people do judge right away based on where you are from. But if you show them nothing but respect, that’ll change real quick.
I hope dearly that someone will give you all the oppurtunity to prove what YOUR country is made of. Be the change YOU want to see.
I think the comments on here are funnier than the poster. It’s somehow immoral that you can find a place that serves unhealthy food? WTF? I especially love the cries about how the gubment should do something about it. Yes, yes, well regulated gruel for everyone! Dolts.
The whole point of the poster was another dolt jumping on the America-bashing bandwagon. Nevermind that a lot of European cuisine is far less healthy than even that gem. Yes, America has the highest obesity rate, but barely. Mexico and the UK are very close behind.
Wow, this made me hungry. If I had any money, I’d run out and go buy one.
Hmm, I wonder if instead of ketchup, mustard w/e, what if you put MAPLE SYRUP on it?
50% mix of maple syrup and bacon grease.
Being a fat guy myself. I probably wouldn’t eat this. I enjoy a good burger but this doesn’t look all that good to me, regardless of health. It’s like someone stuck two things together without regard to how they’d taste in combination.
For example I like sushi. I also like cookies. I would not like sushi with cookies in it.
Still, to each his own. If you want to eat it, go right ahead. Free country and all. They got that part right at the very least.
Nothing wrong with eating stuff like this and the double down as long as you do a little thing that people don’t seem to understand the meaning of anymore, EXERCISE. Everyone bashes these types of foods and says they should just eat an apple and a cucumber sandwich for each day, when in reality i eat fast food like mcdonalds probably twice a week, usually two of some type of sandwich like the fish fillet or two big macs and im 180 lbs. People like to be able to stay thin just based on what they eat, but guess what you can enjoy unhealth but tasty food and still stay fit if you just run or do some sit ups or some form of workout every day. It’s not hard takes me 20-30 minutes each day and i can eat almost whatever i want and stay at my weight.
I’m the guy who took this picture, made this poster, and submitted it. I can’t believe how seriously some of you are taking this. Let me clear up a few things; first off I am an American and I took this picture at the Kentucky State Fair in August of this year. This isn’t a billboard, it was on the roof of the stand selling it. It is not a regular item at any restaurant I have ever seen, but a novelty item created to make some fast cash. I just posted “America” under the picture because I thought it was a pretty funny quote. What I meant was look how far down we’ve gone as a society that we are making crap like this and the KFC Double Down as marketing gimmics to sell s**tty food. I had also seen a stand selling deep fried butter at a different festival earlier this year. I certainly wasn’t trying to disrespect America or Americans. I am a fat bastard myself, so it wasn’t a slam against the obese either. And for the record, I did not try it. But some who did were on the news and in the paper saying it was really good. Here is a story from a local news station: http://www.whas11.com/news/health/Krispy-Kreme-Donut-Burger-Heart-attack-waiting-to-happen-101092469.html
Hope this clears things up. Stop hating and start laughing.
I probably would have found it funny if it wasn’t Krispy Kreme donuts that were used. I never liked them because they were so sweet and my automatic reaction to that picture was to gag. XD
Being at a state fair makes this make perfect sense. Our local city fair was last week and for the last three years I’ve looked at the booth with deep-fried candy bars but have yet to bring myself to try one.
Well that makes sense. I live in Kentucky but haven’t been to the state fair, but I hear stories, man. I’ve heard people make freaking chocolate covered bacon at those things.
Right on, have a chuckle and move on… this isn’t a Journalism page. XD
Sushi is not a country.
It’s because of your comment that I actually read his. Seriously, that’s hilarious.
I had them at my state fair…SOOO GOOD!! I wanted to get the one with bacon, but my boyfriend didn’t want to.
…How do I not weigh 400 pound…? I also had the deep-fried peanut butter and chocolate-covered bacon….
Deep Fried Butter.
That is the only thing I can think of that is worse than this.
D:
I was just about to post about that!
*shudders*
A theme park I went to this summer had it AND deep fried beer.
As horrifying as that is, I gotta give them some points for finding a way to deep fry beer o.o
Ummm, people it’s a PICTURE with a CAPTION, not “terrorist Anti-America propoaganda”.
While I wouldn’t eat it, I defend YOUR right to. As an American in a major city I am THANKFUL that I have so many diverse choices of food and dishes from all over the world. If you want to live longer, choose wisely. If not, I’m sure they can add bacon anddip that burger in chocolate for you for a small fee.
Jeez, isn’t America fat enough already. What else, Lard filled lard…
All right! Breakfast!
They also have a punch card. Buy 10 of those and you get a free angioplasty.
Actually… I’m starting to crave for it myself…
What’s really sad is that I would totally eat that. Lol.
I’m not American, but even I’d have put a “F@*k Yeah!” at the bottom.
This would be ok for the daredevils and just wants to try everything
I was far too lazy to read the American bashing/self bashing which constituted most of the posts here. So I apologize if what i’m about to say has been said.
The Big E is currently serving this in Massachusetts and CT has been showing commericials of little kids eating this thing. It’s amusing to see it on a billboard. It must be disgusting, although my aunt enjoyed it.
Arguing over FOOD? You’re all idiots, no matter what country you live in.
These america-bashing pics are old and boring. Ive seen more fat people in European countries in pictures (at least) than I have in the US. Besides its not like other countries dont have fast food, or fattening foods. Baklava? Tiramisu? Chocolate?
Get over yourselves you ignorant euro-centric bigots.
If the world outside of America thinks the majority of Americans would actually even step foot in this place, that’s the fault of their ignorance, and not our fault.
The laugh is on them, since stereotypes stem from about 10% truth, 90% failed humor and 62% incorrect math equations.
90 percent of statistics are made up.
But your look right, except the math equation is probably a lot higher.
Jim Gaffigan, eat your heart out (literally), now it needs a ham sandwich
Ahhh, those.
The Krispy Kereme stall at the State Fair was serving those. From what I hear, they’re delicious. Sadly, I had already blown all my money on maple cotton candy. Pure sugar > Heart Attack Inna Bun
Your comment is so hypocritical, i’m just going to leave it up to you to figure out how. Maybe you’ll actually learn something instead of regurgitating a stereotype that everyone else has been doing.
Because if its awesome, its obviously made in America.
No, wait a minute. i can do better. hm… Oh, I got it!
Beat that World!
This was at the Kansas State Fair, I remember it was like a big thing and upset a bunch of people…. I must admit I am angry that I didn’t get a chance to try one
And all that remains of this comment section is cluttered mess of comments, insults about each others countries, and several “interesting” talks about the double down
As usual! :-p
I’m American… And I faped.
They can take my God-given right to burden our health care system, after they take my (for defensive purposes only) chaingun.
