GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) - Well, at least the salsa is low-cal. The West Michigan Whitecaps, a minor league baseball team, will be offering up major league cholesterol, carbohydrates and calories in an enormous hamburger being added to the menu this year at the Fifth Third Ballpark.

The 4-pound, $20 burger features five beef patties, five slices of cheese, nearly a cup of chili and liberal doses of salsa and corn chips, all on an 8-inch sesame-seed bun. That's a lot of dough!

The Grand Rapids Press reports that anyone who eats the entire 4,800-calorie behemoth in one sitting will receive a special T-shirt. Saner fans can divide it up with a pizza cutter and share.

The Midwest League team is a Class A affiliate of the Detroit Tigers.

Kinda upset that it was 5 burgers in one bun. It should just have been one big burger and one big slice of cheese.

[Mehen]

only $20 eh...

you know.... to eat that monsterous burger puting yourself at grave risk only to receive a T-short at the day is crazy stupid.

Would be worse if you had to eat the 100 lb burger (at a sports bar in Taylor - downriver Detroit).

5 1/3 Pound Patties. I've seen a bigger single patty burger at Bateman's. Should just be five separate burgers.


Hmm, a 2lb buffalo burger would be worth trying. Tastes better than beef.

[Dr Mordrid]

YES!! It does!!

We have several groceries around here that carry it.

Have 5 lbs in the freezer waiting for a good BBQ day
