Why not just put a whole grilled cow on a bun?

If you watch the link above the burger is disgusting. The guy brings it up to his mouth and grease starts pouring off the burger. It's just nasty.

Unlike previous MS OS's win7 has been out in public beta for sometime prior to release... a lot more stable then previous OS releases which didnt get the same amount of public testing win7 has already gone through. I've been using the Beta since March and its been solid throughout.

-So if Takeru Kobayashi gets in line first and eats the first 30 Win7 burgers you will need to pay almost 2x for yours.

I thought WinVista was beta tested before release. -Some may say what is Windows Vista? -You are dumb! -Nobody uses that. I want the Win7 vaccine first before the virus.

"The burger consists of seven stacked beef patties for 777 yen."

And consuming this monstrosity of meat will raise your cholesterol to 777, your triglycerides to the same, and leave you feeling like you need to have seven bowel movements.

Their comment that this is "American Size" is such a racist thing to say! I have never seen such gross food in my life. 3 yes, 7 no. Just like the eating competitions. Yes we have a few, but nothing compared to what the Japanese shove how their mouths. It shouldn't read "American Size" it should read "Japanese stupid opinion of what American size is." Lack of knowledge in a stereotype country. What are the stereotypes of Japanese. Shall we mention them here?

Apparently they did! Did you SEE that picture!! lol

I love meat, don't often eat red meat so when I do, I really enjoy it. But this pic is just disgusting...makes me want to become a vegetarian.

the burger is equally as detrimental to your health as installing windows 7 will be

Hi, I'd like the 777 whopper with the extra large lipitor to go please

The first 30 customers get it for 777 yens...better make it breakfast!

The only question is whether to get it at the Oimachi, Shinjuku or Ikebukuro BK.

I was in the Akihabara BK on Sunday at 3pm and well after they had sold out the first 30, about half the people in the store were trying their hands at it. Saw more than a few finish it completely. Of course because of the demand, they told us the wait on regular burgers was 40 minutes! (Whopper JRs were available right away.) So much for fast food...
