Alright, let’s talk about this super-duper pricey burger, the one they say costs a whole heap of money. I heard tell it’s the most expensive burger in the whole wide world, can you believe that? A burger! Not gold, not diamonds, but a burger!
Now, they say this thing costs, get this, over five thousand dollars! Five THOUSAND! For a burger! What in the Sam Hill are they puttin’ in that thing? I could feed my whole family for a year on that kinda money, and still have some left over for a new pair of shoes.
From what I gather, it ain’t just any old ground beef they’re usin’. They talk about somethin’ called “Wagyu beef,” sounds fancy, huh? Said to be the best beef in the world, real tender and juicy, melts in your mouth like butter they say. Never had it myself, but folks who know say it’s somethin’ special. They also stuff it with other things like, what was it? Goose liver I think, they call it “foie gras”, and some kind of fish eggs, “caviar” I believe. Sounds plumb weird to me, but hey, I ain’t the one eatin’ a five-thousand-dollar burger.
And the bun! Don’t even get me started on the bun. It ain’t just bread, no sirree. They put gold on it, real gold! Like somethin’ a king would eat. Can you imagine? Eatin’ gold! Must be some city folk thing. Us country folk, we like our bread plain and simple.
- Wagyu Beef: They say it’s the best, real tender and all that.
- Foie Gras: Goose liver, sounds kinda rich and greasy.
- Caviar: Fish eggs, salty little things, not my cup of tea.
- Gold Leaf Bun: Shiny and fancy, but probably don’t taste like much.
They got other fancy burgers too, I hear. One fella, a cook they call Ramsay, makes one with lobster meat in it. Lobster! In a burger! And some kinda cheese made from goat milk, and some special vinegar that’s older than my grandma. Sounds like a whole lotta fuss for a burger if you ask me.
Another place in New York, they call their burger somethin’ rude, “The Douche Burger” I think it was. Costs a whole lot less, but still more than I’d ever pay for a burger, somethin’ like six hundred and sixty-six dollars. Seems like a lot of folks are tryin’ to make the fanciest, priciest burger they can. Don’t know why, a good ol’ burger from the local diner tastes just fine to me.
Some folks are even makin’ burgers in a lab now, growin’ the meat in some kinda dish. They call it “cultured beef.” Sounds like somethin’ out of a sci-fi movie. Don’t know if I’d eat somethin’ grown in a lab, seems kinda unnatural to me. But I reckon some folks will try anything once.
So, there you have it, the lowdown on the most expensive burger. All that fancy meat, and gold, and whatnot. Me? I’ll stick with my regular burger, thank you very much. It fills my belly and don’t empty my wallet. And that’s good enough for me.
But if you got money to burn, go ahead and try that fancy burger. Just don’t expect me to understand why you’d spend that much on somethin’ you can eat in five minutes. There’s a whole lotta things I’d rather do with five thousand dollars than buy a burger. Like getting my roof fixed. Or a new tractor. Now that’s money well spent!
And for the burger joints tryin’ to make it big selling these expensive burgers, I just think of it like trying to catch a big fish. They throw in all these fancy ingredients and shiny gold, hoping someone with a big wallet comes and takes a bite. Makes for good talkin’ I guess, getting people all worked up. But me? I am happy with my regular old burger.
