For truly extreme food adventurers, this chocolate peanut butter burger packs a meaty, sugary punch.
In honor of National Nut Day, October 22nd, Canadian burger chain The Works has created this Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Burger. The mash-up peanut butter burger contains real Reese's stuffed right into the patty as well as more pieces of candy on top. Plus, it has crispy onion strings and strips of bacon to add some salt to the sweetness.
More than ever, the best way for dining establishments to garner free social media publicity is to manufacture extreme creations -- so that those who order or, even better, finish them will inevitably document the experience and broadcast it to everyone they know. In the best case scenario, the blogosphere picks up the buzz, generating what essentially amounts to a free 48-hour ad campaign.
