Inspired by the Netflix phenomenon Stranger Things, this Eggos waffle burger is just one item on a menu dedicated to the television program.
English eatery Lucky Chip is offering a special Stranger Things menu for the month of October that features the waffle burger (containing a smoked bacon, peanut butter, jelly, beef patty, American cheese and a hint of chili) as well as the Demogorgon burger (beef patty filled with demi gorgonzola cheese, cheddar, Mac sauce and pickled onions). Five other burgers are on the menu, plus onion rings inspired by the mysterious Eleven, a Hawkins High School-themed snack box and a variety of french fries.
The menu is an example of how pop culture can be incorporated into the food industry while also taking advantage of the spooky season.
