In the middle of Little Egypt in New York City’s Astoria is a place called the Crave Shack, where you can get artery-clogging food like bacon-donut burgers.
Crave Shack's ‘Crave Dough-You-Nut’ is no ordinary burger—and not because it squishes in cheddar, beef and bacon between two glazed and grilled donuts. The bacon-donut burger is unique because the bacon is actually halal turkey bacon. In fact, to preserve the neighborhood’s religious culture, everything on the menu at the Crave Shack avoids all foods forbidden by Quranic law.
Now you can be ridiculously unhealthy while maintaining cultural sensitivity!
