Of all the restaurants that might offer a $200 truffle-laden burger on their menu Burger King is probably one of the last ones, if not the last one, that comes to mind. But believe it or not Burger King has launched a $200 hamburger called simply "The Burger" that features Wagyu beef, white truffles, Pata Negra ham slices, Cristal onion straws, Modena balsamic vinegar, lambs lettuce, pink Himalayan rock salt, organic white wine, and shallot-infused mayonnaise all served up on an Iranian saffron and white truffle dusted bun.

That's quite a list of ingredients.

"The Burger" will be on sale once per week in London and proceeds go to benefit the Help a London Child charity.

I don't like mayonnaise....

LOL.

I'm just wondering what you are supposed to drink with that burger? Pepsi?? Lemonade?

A diet pepsi and 2 cholesterol tablets, it sounds very high calorie, and extremely bad for the cholesterol levels.

I have found a chain of fast-food restaurants here in the U.S. that offer above-average fare, called "Five Guys". They serve only domestic beef, never frozen. Yes, they serve only hamburgers and hot dogs; and no, I don't want to survive only on fast-food, but cannot stand half-fast food; Mickey D's, please take notice.

I'd say a nice Chiraz (1993...good year) would go very well with this burger, especially if someone else (Kneehighs) pays. I would wear pink 6" heels and a tu-tu for that free meal.

I think the idea of the burger sales to charity is fantastic. Burger King does that locally in my town for various charities. Various groups will work at the Burger King on designated days and portions of the profits go to the charity they are working for.

As far as the $200 burger, I hope it tastes as good as it sounds.

Most charity food in these parts is from the Knights of Columbus, the Lions club or the Boy Scouts but I can't imagine too many people would pay $200 for a burger.
