Cooked Crack Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Quote Burger King is causing a stir in Thailand with its new offering: a burger with no meat and a jaw-dropping amount of cheese. This week, the Thai operator of the fast food chain introduced what it calls the “real cheeseburger,” a bun filled with as many as 20 slices of American cheese. The item launched on Thai menus Sunday, at a reduced price of 109 Thai baht ($3.1), compared with the usual price of 380 baht ($10.9). It quickly went viral on social media in Thailand, with many users on TikTok posting videos of them trying the new sandwich. “This is no joke. This is for real,” Burger King said in a Sunday social media post. Quote Im Jeepetch, a 25-year-old IT engineer, said she loved cheese but “this was a bit too much.” “I could only finish half of it,” she said, wiping her mouth with a tissue. “This is an insane amount of cheese added into one burger. Food is good when things are at the right combination.” Im added that she would probably not order the gooey fare again next time: “Other burgers are already good. I think I will go back to my double cheese angus as usual.” Quote Restaurants are also continuously tailoring their offerings to suit local tastes in different countries. In Thailand, cheese is especially popular among young customers, and it is common for the dairy product to be sprinkled on all kinds of dishes. https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/11/business/thailand-burger-king-cheeseburger-intl-hnk/index.html 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's like, 12 ounces of cheese. 12 ounces is not a jaw-dropping amount of anything. 12 ounces isn't a jaw dropping amount of ****ing plutonium.

SkinsFTW Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 20 slices of cheese in the pics but naturally when you order it there's only 10-12 with 1/2 of them falling off the bun in a gooey mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost all Asian foods do not use much dairy at all. Indian food has fresh cheese and lots of butter but outside of them it’s not a traditional ingredient in most Asian cuisines. Also I think Mongolians use yak milk in their cuisine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've thought a Chinese-Mexican Fusion Restaurant would kill. Both can do spicy. There are some Chinese dishes that would be great with cheese. Some Mexican ones that soy sauce would hook up.

Well they might be lactose intolerant because it's never been a part of their diet. Your second sentence baffles and saddens me. Our brains release dopamine when we consume cheese. Cheese literally makes people happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the part of Asia. Koreans have adopted cheese into their cuisine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forehead Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 The 64 slices of cheese thing was the first thing I thought of, but late to the party as usual. Also, that looks disgusting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfitzo53 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 There is a great Indian-Mexican fusion place in Oakton called Mama Tigre. The lactose intolerance issue is genetic. The mutation that allows humans to digest lactose into adulthood originated in Europe. (Making milk into products like yogurt can help, which is one reason there is lots of yogurt but not much cheese in places like the Middle East and India.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
