Food For Thought:

Would you eat this "real cheeseburger" if you had the chance. Is is even really a cheeseburger? It has no burger on it at all. I like cheese but this is a little over the top for me. This is a real item that people were eating in Thailand.



Burger King Thailand took the fast-food world by storm with its unconventional "Real Cheeseburger." This menu item, as the name suggests, is a minimalist approach to the classic burger: a bun and an astonishing 20 slices of American cheese.



Released in early 2023, the Real Cheeseburger quickly became a viral sensation, sparking both intrigue and skepticism. While some cheese enthusiasts were eager to try this cheesy extravaganza, others questioned the concept of a "burger" without any meat.



The Real Cheeseburger has undoubtedly generated significant buzz for Burger King Thailand, but its long-term impact on the menu remains to be seen.

My Thoughts On Hamburger Chow Mein:



I really enjoy Chinese food and love to cook it. I also enjoy visiting a Chinese restaurant I have never been to before. The chow mein noodles and water chestnuts are my favorite ingredients in this recipe. The crunch of the water chestnuts mixed with the other vegetables are nice.



If you are craving a nice Chinese flavored recipe to try, this recipe will be a great choice. I like eggrolls and crab rangoons with my Chinese meal.
