I tried a baconator once 15+ years ago in the US. It was advertised as having 10 rashers of bacon on it! I had to know for myself. I obviously bought fries and their signature Frosty (thickshake) too to get the full experience.

I learnt three things that day:

  1. Americans call the streaky bacon bit a rasher. So they're about 3cm by 10cm, so not as hedonistic as imagined.
  2. a manufactured food that is 1/3 fat has a surprising amount of structural integrity.
  3. people dip their fries in their thickshakes.

I only ate salad for days afterwards. We really don't need Wendy's or even just another shit-tier burger place like them.

People who do number 3 should be rounded up and executed.
