I hereby challenge Chicago-based comedy troupe, Octavarius, to a Fast Food Throwdown of epic cheese proportion. Friendly’s Restaurant Grilled Cheese BurgerMelt. No, your eyes do not deceive. That is a hamburger encased in TWO grilled cheese sandwiches.
Our friends Octavarius have a “Fast Food Quest,” whereby they find the most preposterous meal endorsed by human beings and embark on a pilgrimage to consume it.
As a native New Englander, Friendly’s is a neighborhood stable. The ridiculousness of the BurgerMelt, however, is not.
I proclaim three challenges to Octavarius:
1) Locate a Friendly’s Restaurant in the Midwest.
2) Consume the Grilled Cheese BurgerMelt.
3) Do not die when completing either Challenge #1 or Challenge #2
Also, I want photos.
I’ll be waiting. And also eating a spinach salad from Whole Foods because just typing this post makes me ache for an antacid.
.
though i believe i have never been so disgusted with the idea for a food in my life. Octavarius heartily accepts. and by that i mean we’ll get keith to do it or something
It’s on.
Wait, maybe it’s not on. The only Friendly’s I could find anywhere near hear is the Friendly Towers Retirement Home. If they serve grilled cheese burger melts, I’m still in.
