Ever have “The Luther”?

That’s a burger with bacon on a doughnut. It’s named about Luther Vandross.

I have not tried one.  I gotta admit the truth: I ascared.

For some reason, it hurts my teeth to look at that. Is it complemented by coffee, or ketchup?

Fiendish.

Is it called the Luther Vandross, because it is "Never Too Much" or because he liked to eat these construction?

If a dish, meal, whatever you want to call a food combination -- if it offers me a reason to eat it, I'll eat it, no matter what kind of stares it may draw.

There's a place beyond that where people are clearly just making stuff up as a dare. I like burgers, bacon and donuts, but have no use whatsoever for jamming all three in my mouth at the same time.

Reminds me of a house party I once attended where some guys were trying to outdo each other in making the hottest chicken wing sauce. After a couple of hours of giggling and tough talk and high-fiving, you couldn't walk into the kitchen without your eyes watering. And as soon as the joke was over a whole bunch of food went in the garbage uneaten, because no human could eat it.
