I look at those grotesqueries and wonder to myself "Why even bother having a patty hiding under there?"

 

My GF went through a stage of watching Guy Fieri's DDD and similar shows, and I got to the point where my eyelid would start to twitch at the phrase "...this OVER THE TOP burger..."

 

ETA: Those of us of a certain age (ie, most of us) may remember a vintage Doonesbury cartoon from the mid-70s, with a small Vietnamese orphan being adopted by an American family. They sit her down to her first American meal, cooing fondly "Look how excited she is!" 

The little one, for her part, is raging in a thought bubble "This is obscene! You could feed half of Saigon with this!" (paraphrased from memory, and probably not exact)

I was bemused, years later, to learn that GBT had revived her character as Mike Doonesbury's whip-smart young programmer GF.
