Had one a couple days ago. Minty goodness, as always. I did get the whipped cream and cherry with mine, but it was offered. I could have told them not to put it on there. Really though? It is whipped fat and a maraschino cherry. How can you pass that up? Scoop 'em off with a spoon and just eat them separate like I did.

By the way, creme de menthe and peppermint schnapps is the way to go when adultifying one from McDs or when creating your own blend. It gives it the nice color, as well as the kick you are looking for.

@Kenji "a wish burger"

Now they need to add a ricochet biscuit to the menu.

bow bow bow.

Having a party to cheer the Packers on to victory, and hopefully enjoying some scrumptious burgers while doing so!

I am always leary of burger places that feel an obsessive need to name the source of every ingriedient they use. I realize it is the in thing right now, which is why it always comes across as some kind gimmicky, hipster bs. Are the soda straws made from cruelty free, organic plastic or are they woven from free range yak hair lovingly harvested by Urasucker Farms?

Yikes! That is an ugly burger.

Wow...the burger actually looks pretty good in the pics. Sorry that your burger wasn't great. Still, a burger in the sky...awesome!

wow, everybody...just...wow. YAY, WISCONSIN!! You always make me proud. :o)

My initial reaction to seeing the opening burger pic was, "what in the hell is that thing on top of the burger?" The mushroom may taste good, but that burger is unappealing visually. Really both of the burgers look kinda gross. The only thing that looks good is the fries, and they sounded like the worst part of the meal.

I remember going to the Ground Round for burgers as a kid. The best part was that they had free, roasted-in-the-shell peanuts and they let you throw the shells right on the floor. I don't recall slips and falls ever being an issue.

How do you tell people their food could be better?

Um, I may be wrong, but I think you just did.

I had to look this one up. Not exactly about a burger, but it is a major burger condiment and I think that counts. :o)

Flen (flen) - n. (chemical symbol: Fl) The black crusty residue that accumulates on the necks of old catsup bottles.

Forgot to mention above...great column. I can't wait to make this. I am a Po' Boy n00b.
