    After you eat the pure bacon burger you can freshen your breath with Archie McPhee’s bacon breath mints – REALLY!

    You have to check the menu out. Apart from all the bacon infused everything they have Chicken and Pancakes which is described as:

    Fried chicken topped with bacon-infused country gravey with two pieces of thick cut bacon along with a sunnyside egg in between three pancakes smothered with real maple syryp.

    Damn, since it’s California I suspect it will come with a side order of lawsuit.

    Great. But only in Cali.

    Everywhere else it’s DIY. That ain’t too shabby, tho; just a little more work!!!

    Oh man. I think I just found the first reason I’d ever consider visiting Kalifornia. Not that I can actually get there, but if I could, I’d be all over one of them things in a heartbeat. After eating it, I’d realize just how much I missed being in the United States, so I’d leave, but I’d have a smile and a full belly.

    From the article linked at Daily Caller:
    “The ‘merica burger — a patty made of 100% ground bacon topped with a slice of thick cut bacon, a sunny side up egg, a new “bacon island” dressing and a heavy slice of bacon cheddar cheese.”

    It must taste like crap if they have to put all that junk on it. Their 50% ground beef/50% bacon burger costs $10 by itself with no fries or drink. Hate to see what the ‘merica goes for
