Or should I call these death burgers?

Donut Burgers

So a friend and I were watching some food show and saw these donut burgers being sold in a county fair and thought it would be fun to try and make them.

We went to the nearest In and Out Burger and got some double cheeseburgers (aka double-double), then went to Krispy Kreme donuts, which was conveniently next door.

We went home and assembled this monster. We simply took off the buns of the burgers and replaced them with donuts and put them in the microwave for a bit so the donuts would be warm and gooey.

These burgers were certainly...interesting...a sweet and savory thing...I probably wouldn't eat them again but it was fun to try it at least once.

Considering these burgers are certainly a prime example of excess..thought it was appropriate to pose them with some of the known gluttons of anime...

Wonder how many calories these burgers are...

Would you try this burger?

Snack Loot! lol

Since I'm all about health...I decided that instead of buying real groceries this week that I'd just buy snacks and candy. I'm real sucker for flavored Kitkats. These Royal Milk Tea ones are really good. My favorite will always be cantaloupe though. I haven't seen that flavor in a while...

When grocery shopping do you tend to buy more snacks than real food?

      I'm hooked on their raspberry filled donuts. So much better than plain jelly.

      To be honest I could barely eat half of it since it was little intense. I was just really curious what it would taste like

    Lol, I can't say that I would ever eat that myself, but I'm really impressed you gave it a shot. I remember reading something about those burgers on Yahoo!News and having my jaw drop at the number of calories. It's a good thing that you're still young and can handle this kind of food without your heart stopping XP

    I'll gladly eat one of those donut burgers. Better now that I can exercise it off rather than when I'm old and there's no way to get rid of it. :P

    Donut Burger? How utterly horrid (makes retching noises)!!! LOL!!!
    Maybe when I was younger I would eat it, but now, my doctor would blow a gasket if he saw eating this. I am actually on heart medication already, so no booze, no fatty foods, no sweets, nothing in excess, no smoking? ( Sorry Doc can't quit now, life too stressfull). Personally I do not like sweets, I would prefer fruit if possible (just like what the good doctor said).

    Burger + Donut? . . .ew. I'm sorry, I agree with Miya of Sodium Eyes on this one: taste is holistic, not an additive property. ^^; I'd link that particular comic page, but it seems the site's down at the moment.

    Those flavored Kit-kats sure look good, though I definitely could not eat them swiftly enough to warrant buying nothing but snacks and candy on a grocery run.

    Hey I think I know what In n Out and KK yor talking about. In the SF area there is only one KK and In and Out next to each other, and that's in Daly City right? Near Daly City DMV, I'm pretty sure. As for the Donut Burgers, it's cool but it's not for a healthy human to eat.

    I think you're supposed to cut the donut in half first ^^;; But I guess if it's not too much of a mouthful for you then fine by me, lol.
