Luther Burgers?

July 3, 2008

It’s getting to the Fourth of July silly season, so thanks to Jack Everitt for making sure that I know about Luther Burgers–hamburgers in a Krispy Kreme donut bun. They even have their own Wikipedia entry. Don’t you need to know about such things? This is another food joke, right? Thanks (?) Jack.

  1. I’ve heard of those, but didn’t know they had an actual name.

  2. Maybe the beef industry was jealous of the pork industry’s honey glazed ham?
    Or maybe some dining consumer group decided the poor plain hamburger didn’t have enough added sugar or fat, so they rectified the situation by adding the donut.
