<\/p>\nWe assure you\u00a0that this is not a premature April Fool’s Day joke.<\/p>\n
The “Craz<\/span>-E Burger,” which was created by Food Network star and Southern cook Paula Deen,<\/span> is a bacon-<\/span>cheeseburger sandwiched between a buttered Krispy<\/span> Kreme<\/span> donut. Yes folks, two of the most saturated fat-friendly foods the American diet<\/a> has created have joined together in a ceremonious union of heart attack meets <\/span>muffin top.<\/p>\n The queen of Southern cooking, known for her very generous use of butter, first pioneered the burger on her food show. The heart-stopping creation was picked up by the restaurants and sandwich dives all over the country; including the Big E agriculture fair this past summer in Massachusetts, where more than 1,000 sold to curious and risk-taking fair-goers.<\/p>\n While the version of the donut burger that is making headlines is made with bacon, beef, cheese and of course donuts, the original gut-busting burger that Ms. Deen<\/span> whipped up on her show called for the addition of a few fried eggs atop the heap of <\/span>cardiac-arresting <\/a>ingredients.<\/p>\n The nutrition facts that follow are only for those who have never eaten the donut burger.\u00a0And since ignorance is\u00a0bliss, for\u00a0those of you who have chowed down on this monstrosity, we ask that you stop reading right now.<\/p>\n Calories<\/strong>: 1,500<\/p>\n Fat grams<\/strong>: 45-70 (will vary depending upon ingredients and inclusion of fried eggs)<\/p>\n Percentage of calories from fat<\/strong>: 50-65 percent<\/p>\n Estimated calories per bite<\/strong>: 100<\/p>\n Here is a clip from Good Morning America<\/a> as the co-hosts<\/span> braved a bite of the Donut Burger.<\/span><\/p>\n And here’s Paula preparing the concoction herself:<\/span><\/p>\n
