The 300 dollar burger

[ShunNakamura]

A funny thing happened as I was waiting for my food at Wendy's today.

As I was waiting this lady came in and said she needed to speak to a manage because she was the one who got the 300 dollar Burger.

My brain sorta paused at that point.

Anyways as I waited I got to hear the whole story. Apparently somehow when a cashier rang her up the decimal point got dropped. So rather than 3 something, it was 300 something. The lady apparently just swiped Debit Carded the payment. She didn't notice until she looked at the receipt as she was about to leave. So she talked to the acting manager at the time. But this individual apparently didn't have the passwords necessary for refunding that amount and they couldn't get a hold of the actual manager. So the acting manager tried another way that appeared to work on her end. But when the lady went to the bank to double check it hadn't cleared. So she came back to ask how long it would take(this is when I was waiting) and this time they managed to get a hold of the guy with the passwords and straightened things out(apparently what the acting manager tried will look like it works on their end, but without the proper method and passwords it won't actually go all the way through).

I just gotta wonder though. . . what would a Burger worth 300 dollars look like?

Like one served at Ted's Montana Grill (http://www.tedsmontanagrill.com/).

According to my extremely serious and deep research, 666 Burger in New York sells a $666 burger. It includes truffles, caviar, and foie gras, among other expensive things.

You could probably get a $300 burger if you had it made with kobe beef. The real stuff in Japan. Not the fake stuff they call Kobe beef in other parts of the world.

And yeah, just throw stuff like foie gras or saffron in there and you can easily rack up the $$$.

[Calliope]

One day I want to buy a bunch of truffles and share them with pigs, I always feel sorry for them :(

[fire_of_avalon]

Truffles, caviar and foie gras aren't even things that should be piled on top of each other. Gross.

I would pay $300.00 for a regenerating burger.

[Jinx]

I'd pay $300 for 30 Five Guys burgers.

[Shorty]

I'd pay $300 to order 30 Five Guys burgers and grind them into the street.

[Psychotic]

A tyrannosaurus burger.

[fire_of_avalon]

I would pay $300.00 to watch Sam force Shorty to eat all the Five Guys burgers she ground up into the street.

[Pant Leg Eater from the Bad World]

I would definitely pay $300 for a burger right now

I know what it's like to be hungry but I'll never be 300 dollar burger hungry.

Reminds me of a picture I took. Sad that a missing decimal isn't the only thing wrong with this photo:

Presumably, if you're starving hungry and you have $300, you'd make a wiser investment than one burger.

[Spuuky]

What if you're also CRAZY? CRAZY Bread!!!

[Raine]

I am hungry now.

Would any of you pay 300 dollars for just one meal for yourself?

[Shiny]

If the burger is made out of an endangered animal then $300 seems reasonable.

Either way I am not paying $300 for just one item of food. That's stupid.

[Polnareff]

I'd gladly pay you $300 on Saturday for a burger today.

There's one that actually exists... well it's $295 but I suppose when you add fries and a drink to that you've got your $300 burger.

edited to include a picture of what $295 worth of burger actually looks like.

editga: Surprisingly or not, the burger above has been topped by "The Douche" which is $666... fitting! see link below:

"A solid gold toothpick infused with diamonds." How pointless.

[Iceglow]

I'm pretty sure without the toothpick that burger only costs like $150 tops in terms of ingredients. The Douche Burger is equally pointless in that the burger is wrapped in gold leaf and the cheese is melted in steam from champagne... wtf would you waste champagne by boiling it off in to steam for?

[noxious.sunshine]

That's the point. The creator of the Douche burger said it himself...

"It's a burger filled and topped with rich people ish"

He created it mocking the trend of expensive burgers. Lol

A $300 burger would look like a waste of money.

And tiny.
