For the love of God, don’t let Tom Harkin see this

May 21, 2007 in Overset

Via Will Work For Food, the ingredients for Japanese MacDonalds Tamago Double Mac: Hamburger with 2 beef patties, pepper sauce, bacon, and a poached egg.* Served with or without cheese. I do believe I once say something like this on an episode of “The Simpsons.”

* Poached? What the Hell? It’s an egg. A gooey cholesterol-filled egg. On top of two beef patties. Are they seriously trying to make it just a little bit healthier by not going ahead and frying the damn thing? Are there people who would eat two fried hamburger patties covered with a poached egg, but would consider the same thing covered with a friend egg to be a bit much? Explain this to me.

I wanna see Shrek eat one of these bad boys.

If you think this looks delicious, you should try the Tavern burger at the Burger Barge in EP. 1/2lb burger, shredded ham, fried egg on top.
I recommend the “no onion” option.

Oh. Sweet. Mama. That’s located down on Wesley Road right?

Bill:

The eggs McDonald’s serves on their McMuffins have always been poached, so I doubt health consciousness has anything to do with the “poaching.”

That is correct. Great burgers, especially if you are trying to expedite your first bypass surgery. Great people too.

Its McDonalds, they will do anything to tempt a healthy eater. While I’m sure it probably tastes good, I gave up fast food from burger joints because of a health experiment in college…However I still enjoy a good burger from the local taverns.

Ok, maybe I’m confused where Wesley Road is. Isn’t that in Creve Coeur heading to Captain Ron’s? The Burger Barge is north of the Par-a-dice on a frontage Road. Maybe it is a Wesley Road, too.

The eggs on a Mcwhatever are poached? If that is true Escoffier just rolled again.

It’s not on Wesley Road. It is located on an access road just before the Par-A-Dice off of 116. Geez. For those too drunk to know, Wesley Road is off of 29 just below the hill in Creve Couer. The address for the Burger Bardge is 1401 N. Main, E Peoria

I offered to attempt the “Red White, and Moo” before my bypass surgery but nobody was willing to witness the spectacle (right, Tony?)

Yuck, that is one gooey special! But then again, I’ve seen some weird things in Japanese videos.

I guess it would be offered only once a month
