Death-Inducing Cheeseburgers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Bacon Boss Burger by Epic Meal Time Will Cause a Heart Attack

— May 19, 2012 — Lifestyle
There’s nothing on earth that can replace the taste of bacon, and the guys at Epic Meal Time use this mouth-watering meat to create a heart-attack meal called the Bacon Boss Burger.

The guys here say there’s no such thing as “too much” bacon, and with that, they’ve created the biggest bacon burger. There are 400 strips of bacon that tower over the meat, and the bun, cheese and meat are all mixed with additional bacon bits. It’s a bacon-infused party here that uses this meat to its ultimate limit.

The bacon-loving boys topped off the Bacon Boss Burger with a homemade root beer and Jack Daniel’s barbecue sauce that drizzles all over the giant burger. Altogether, it contains 100,000 calories and up to 9,000 grams of fat. To whoever manages to munch down this monstrous death-defying meal, be sure to finish off the wills and get insurance because it is bound to be fatal.
Trend Themes
1. Excessive Bacon Consumption - There is a trend towards creating extreme bacon-infused meals with excessive amounts of bacon.
2. Ultra-caloric Foods - There is a trend of creating outrageously calorie-dense foods for novelty and challenge purposes.
3. Death-defying Food Challenges - There is a trend towards creating dangerously high-calorie food challenges that may have negative health effects.
Industry Implications
1. Fast Food - The fast food industry could capitalize on the trend of creating extreme bacon-infused meals and offer limited-time menu items that cater to the novelty-seeking consumer.
2. Food Challenge Events - Event organizers could create food challenge events centered around outrageously calorie-dense meals to attract thrill-seeking participants and spectators.
3. Health and Wellness - The health and wellness industry could offer counseling or intervention services to individuals who may be prone to participating in dangerous food challenges or consuming excessively high-caloric meals.
