would you buy one?
i would if i had $175 to burn

[WackyAnimation]

i would sprinkle gold flakes over everything that i ate so my dookies sparkle!

[Yhtomit]

That burger looks disgusting.

[Rallard]

... No. I'd buy a kobe beef burger if possible, but the gold flakes and other stuff seem unnecessary.

[Figter]

goddam you made me freaking hungry!

[Obsessed117]

Why would you want gold flakes on your burger??

[xsdemonite]

A work of art.... ? They try and pass everything off as art these days mainstream media bullshit at its best. Bet it tastes like old feet. Could even be old feet.

[Danavers]

It doesn't look that good.

[Excursius]

no silly, it's not the burger, it's a 175 dollar thing of fries. they come in that little paper cone!

or it's what you do with your waitress afterwards. >_>

[SpartanBunny]

I'm pretty sure if I had $175 to waste I could spend it on something less stupid.

[Joshy94]

The article says:

Tierney says the item attracts Wall Street types who down a few beers and then fork over $175 to "show off in front of their friends."

Who the hell spends in excess of $100 on food in order to 'impress their friends'? That Tierney guy sounds like a bit of a dick.

[Chocomilk]

I looked at the picture and almost vomited.

[hateyou1]

What a waste of $175

[CreateAndDestroy]

I would just to say I shit gold.

[JabberWocky]

That thing is a heart attack on a bun!
...
I need to find tickets for a plane to NY.

Lol.

[DevourerJay]

i wonder if there's any nutritional value to eating gold

[GolfChica]

They'd have to let me sample it first, and then if it was REALLY good, then just maybe I would buy one. Dang--I'd love to be a waitress there. Mighty nice tip...

[robotking98]

Not if I had all the money in the world.

I wish I was a girl, and it was easy for me too get a job as a waitress because I am sexual attractive.
*Sigh*

So you can hope you are allergic to gold and that it will kill you, silly.

Agreed. Just because they can make that monstrosity, doesn't mean they should. I'd sooner spend $175 on burgers from McDonalds' Dollar Menu (not sure if they have such a thing in the US, but they have a Poundsaver menu in the UK). Basically, everything on the menu costs £1.

[BrockManson]

That could buy a helluva lot of bigmacs instead.

[danwolves]

Nah, that burger is far too small for how much it costs. Needs to be at least 10 times bigger and with more bacon.

Mmmmm bacon.

[Porkchop]

I'd like to be a cook there.
That way, I could pocket some of the gold flakes and whatnot.

[redsN64]

I would carry a little bit of broken glass in my pocket, order it, eat most of it then slide some broken glass under the bun and show the waiter. FREE BURGER!

[Dorkcraft]

If the burger was legit worth 175 bucks...I might buy one just to say I did. But I would have to get 175 bucks first...

[xsdemonite]

Its just from a cow thats been massaged and fed 5 bottles of beer a day. Fucking planet is gone.

[FattyWhale]

This is why I dislike american chefs.
