And Now For Something Completely Different: Canned Cheeseburgers

[BirdofPrey]

With all the talk of lolcats and their beloved "cheezburgers," it's no surprise that this cheeseburger in a can is spreading like wildfire across the Web. Apparently you just open up the can and take out the cheeseburger, and maybe heat it up somehow before you eat it. Amazing. I guess these mean we're really prepared for the zombie apocalypse.

The "Cheeseburger in a Can," sold by a German outdoors retailer called Trekking Mahlzeiten, is only 257 calories, which is awesome, but it still costs 3.95 euros, which our lousy exchange rate translates into about six bucks. Can or no can, that's just exorbitant; I'll only eat a six-dollar hamburger if it's served at a restaurant with a full bar and a mechanical bull...with really tasty fries on the side.

OH god. Not something I wanna eat.

WTF I would much rather eat one I made myself.

In a Can WTF kinda crap is this? Why in a can? Why not in a plastic bag?

[BirdofPrey]

Did you take a look at the advert? It shows a real burger next to the can. You can tell its not a canned burger because its bigger than the can. Not to mention vegetables look a whole lot different than canned..

I it has bread in it canning will be useless because all the processes that make canning useful by preserving food would destroy the bread and freeze drying wouldn't work since rehydrating it would destroy the bread.

[darkone]

Yeah I didn't notice there was a pic till you said something. *feels like a noob*

Still what a stupid Idea.

[BirdofPrey]

Yeah its throught the link.

I spend enough time fighting with the formatting of posts in gerneral so I don't bother with it in Space Junk

[Meee]

wtf
I can has cheezburger in a can NOT ?
I wonder what the actual thing looks like, when I looked at the picture it was first thing I thought, like 'ok, so where's the pic of the canned burger?'

And the price is insane, I don't know the prices in USA but here I'd buy like 3-4 burgers for 6$

[darkone]

D00d you can go to McDonalds and get a dbl cheeseburger for a dollar, you could be eating your canned burger, and I will be eating 6 dbl's.

Haha, why did you name this "And Now For Something Completely Different"? I saw it on the sidebar and thought it was going to be about the Monty Python movie. If anyone else has seen it, or if it was an intentional reference, my favorite scene is the self defense against fruit class. I laughed so hard when I saw it for the first time.
Anyway, this really is a disturbing concept. Is it an actual thing, or is it just a joke article?

[-LT-]

I would never eat that. Ewww :(

[BirdofPrey]

I question the sanity of anyone who would

[Inside Sin]

The first thing that came to mind to me was...

SLOPPY HANDBURGER, anyone else? Lol.

[Light]

Um....


yeah..


right...

Strange. Yeah, I hate sloppy, compressed burgers. I guess this is maybe only for hardcore adventurers who love burgers. But how can one become a hardcore adventurer if you all eat burgers? Haha, maybe it helps to roll down mountains lolz.

[Frosty]

Who wouldn't want a canned burger cooked by car exhaust?

[Meee]

err... me?
Won't it fall off during the ride?
Besides, you have to actually stop to get it? pfft, sux

[Light]

Wouldnt the meat get all poisoned up from all that exaust?

[Meee]

no, the exhaust just heats metal
unless it can get past metal somehow...

[MarineCorp]

Canned cheeseburger? o_O what the hell is up with those people

[BirdofPrey]

Actually seeigg as it is in a can, to heat one of thoe just drop it on the engine. The only problem would be SAFELEY opening the can

[Gasmaskguy]

Disgusting. Thats probably what the inside of a Nydus Worms looks like.

[Wlck742]

Bah! I'd rather go to a McDonald's.

[ItzaHexGor]

Don't you think that's a little extreme?

[AcE_01]

eww yuck...

the bread is all watery and soggy...lol eww yuck..lol



yeah mcdonalds ftw man...triple cheeseburger ftw!!!! =P

[Wlck742]

If you think about it it's easier to find a McDonalds than a canned cheeseburger...

[Meee]

and far cheaper too

[gtx75]

probably not safe, or that couldn't be a real product at all.
