    I bet even after all that the burger was still dry and flavourless.

    That burger doesn't even sound good...give me a 1/2 lb burger, greasy with cheese and bacon (greasy bacon) greasy tomatos, greasy lettuce, and even greasy ketchup. $5 top. And I guarantee it tastes better ;)

    McDonalds definitely would've screwed that one up! maybe Wendy's would've been a better choice.

    That's great for charity but I could eat 200 burgers for that much. Truffles, everybody in the gourmet world loves some truffles.

    I imagine $200 fries would be the fries that NEVER get soggy, even if you place them right next to a horribly greasy burger.

    ...okay I'd pay $200 for fries like that, too.

    The 99 cent Rodeo burger still sounds better. And I am shocked at the lack of any "MACDAAAAAAWWWWWNNNNNNAAAAALLDS!" comments.

    Using wagyu on a burger is the biggest damned waste of good beef.

    It should have been made with baby seal and dolphin meat.

    Yeah, it probably is a waste, but it tastes so good. Kobe beef FTW!

    Using wagyu on a burger is like ordering your filet mignon burnt-to-a-black-crisp well done. Totally defeats the purpose of the nature of the meat.

    It may still be delicious, but a travesty at the same time.

    Win! Wait... are we talking baby dolphins or adult ones? Because eating baby dolphins would just be cruel... but tender.

    I miss the veal sammich that BK used to have. :(

    I hear yah. The GF likes her steak cooked well-done or better (i.e. no hint of pink what so ever). We split a new york strip one night at a Lone-Star and quite frankly it tasted very meh. As for me I like some pink in the middle! Needless to say I'm not going to split a piece of Prime-Rib with her anytime soon.

    That should be every man's mantra. :lol 

    Before I got married the most cooked I got was medium. Viv complains if I even get that. It's either medium rare or nothing at all for her. Hence I have gone medium rare ever since we got married. :lol
