Palate Cleanser: And You Thought You Knew How Fast Food Prices Were Going Up?

Yeah, stuff at the store is getting more expensive but THIS is a bit nuts. Yeah, every week, I go looking for a $6,100 burger….er, no.

THE MOST EXPENSIVE BURGER IN THE WORLD
It’s been a decade since Juicys Outlaw Grill in Oregon set the record for the world’s most expensive burger with a 777-pound behemoth. Robbert Jan de Veen, the owner of Dutch diner De Daltons, thought he could do better — and with a sandwich that can be picked up with just two hands. The Golden Boy is the result.

Its ingredient list reads like a who’s who of rare foods from around the world, including Japanese A5 Wagyu brisket and chuck short ribs, white truffles, Beluga caviar, Paleta Iberico Bellota ham, Dom Perignon champagne in both the onion rings and saffron gold leaf bread, king crab, and BBQ sauce made using Kopi Luwak coffee and Macallan Single Malt Whisky. Described as having a complimentary but intense flavor profile, the first burger has already been sold, with the entire purchase price going to a local food bank.

I went to the De Daltons’ site (Dutch) just to see what the menu said:

 

Burger ingridiants

 

This is the burger for the folks that already have everything else. That would not include me – or most of our readers. However, unlike the Left, we aren’t going to whine about it or demand that Government pay for it under their stupid monniker of “food insecurity”, are we?
