Mmmmmm....Donut Burger

The burger that would do Homer Simpson proud: the donut burger.

This latest culinary disaster was created by the Gateway Grizzlies, a minor league baseball team in the Frontier League.
The Grizzlies and Krispy Kreme Doughnutshave teamed up to create “Baseball’s Best Burger.” The burger, which was introduced at Gateway’s December 10th sale, consists of a thick and juicy burger topped with sharp cheddar cheese and two slices of bacon. The burger is then placed in between each side of a Krispy Kreme Original Glazed doughnut.

The burger is said to weigh in at 1,000 calories and contain 45 grams of fat. By comparison, a Whopper with cheese only has 760 calories but has 47 grams of fat.
“We have had the opportunity to bring in a new concession item for the past two seasons and each of them have been very successful. We look forward to Baseball’s Best Burger and the excitement it will bring to the ballpark,” said Grizzlies General Manager Tony Funderburg.
Not to mention the paramedic visits.
