Not only will this solve world hunger, but it allows Burger King to compete with "pizza."

It doesn't look like a huge burger. It looks like 6 regular burgers. The buns are just still in the 6-pack form like you buy in the grocery store.

Where does a person sign up to get paid for stupid ideas? I want to know because I could come up with better ideas than this.

I can't believe the Baconator would ever be topped.

Or one extremely hungry person, I bet.

Seriously, this is part of a well-known trend. Consumers love to try things in a new sizes- that's why there are GIANT M&Ms and mini M&Ms, little cheeze snaps, giant Oreos, etc.

As stupid as it seems, I am sure it will sell well. And I have suspicion that only one person will be eating it, not six.

I agree Betty


My guy friends had obsessions with the White Castle deals- but now they will probably try to eat 3 of each of these on their own, while I sit aside and vomit in my mouth a little.

Does anyone remember the Shaq Pack that came out in spring of 2002 or 2003? That was the last time I ever ate red meat....

" And I have suspicion that only one person will be eating it, not six."

I think you hit the nail right on the head. That's probably what Burger King thinks too, they just won't say it because they'll get bad press for contributing to America's obesity.
