I have been wanting one ever since I first read about it. I love Krispy Kreme Donuts and bacon cheeseburgers. What a great combination!

Craz-E Burger

It actually looks healthier than some state fair burgers (whose buns are deep fried). At 1500 calories I could fit one into my daily calorie goal pretty easily.

    I haven't, but I want to try it. I don't think I'd be able to take down an entire burger myself, so I'd need someone to split it with. Here in Minnesota, we have Eli's that makes them, but their website isn't working and their Facebook page hasn't been updated since the summer, so I hope I still have my chance!

    THE BUNS ARE GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I don't even like glazed ham that much, I'm not much for "sweet" and savoury combined, so this does not look good to me. The grilled cheese sammich burger, however...

    Thanks! I will check out Eli's Donut Burgers!. Worst case scenario is that we just buy our own Krispy Kreme Donuts to use as the bun for a Bacon Cheeseburger purchased somewhere else.

    Its like heaven and nirvana all rolled into one great sweet and greasy deliciousness! Just eat it after running at least 10-15 km and you're fine.

    Krispy Kreme + Juicy Lucy burger...

    Well, now I'm just going to have to workout longer today. I think I've gained a couple of pounds just thinking about what you can do to this beauty.

    Mulligan's here in Decatur, GA is supposedly the progenitor of this monstrosity. Though there they call it The Luther.

    Found a pic of the burger in question:

    Gack. For some reason the idea of that really puts me off. Those glazed donuts are so sugary, it would just be too much for one mouthful!

    ...and this is the lady who watches man v. food and basically make a list in her head of all the places she would go and eat on a USA roadtrip. I would come back the size of a house. They'd have to crowbar me out of the plane seat.

    The best one I saw was a beef sandwich that they dunked in beef gravy. Sign me up for that.
