The Baconator is for Wimps!

Why does everyone keep talking about Wendy's new Baconator burger? Sure, it's heavy on the fat and calories, but it's no match for the long-standing king of fast food burgers, the Hardee's Monster Thickburger. Don't believe me? Check it out:

  Wendy's
Baconator
Hardee's
Monster Burger
Patties 2 × 4-oz. 2 × 5.3-oz.
Bacon slices 6 4
Calories 830 1,410
Total Fat (g) 51 107
Saturated Fat (g) 22 45
Cholesterol (mg) 170 229
Carbohydrates (g) 35 47
Sodium (mg) 1,920 2,740
Protein (g) 57 60

 

Sorry, Wendy's. Nice try, but not even close. This is why Hardee's will always have my love. Two Monster Burgers (sans buns) makes for a near-perfect meal, in my opinion.

Besides, Wendy's ruins the whole burger by putting ketchup on it... Bleah!
