West Springfield Love

So Shepard Smith hates the Big E, the 6th largest attended fair in the country, and West Springfield, the home of the Big E, because of some food?  Now, in a Z File exclusive, I have spoken with a man that has eaten this burger and survived another day.

Introducing, my brother Matthew, pictured above (it may not be clear what exactly he is looking at in this photo) He told me with confidence, this 1,500 calorie burger is a life-changing experience. Even the Big E promotes it as such, "No single ingredient dominates the burger. They all complement each other with artistry expected from a celebrity chef. The glaze smooths over the burger and oozes into a foreign but delicious combination with the crisp of the bacon."  The burger costs only $5, so price is a steal, it comes with 2 krispy kreme donuts, 1/3lb angus burger, slice of American cheese, 2 slices of maple bacon, plus the standard lettuce and other toppings. (view video at bottom for a how-to)  This burger is then thrown on a grill, "the bacon is the most delicious because it blends really well with the donut,"no truer words have been spoken by Matthew Zaskey. After eating it Matthew reports, "Initally, I was full and could not eat any more carnival food, and I was really excited to have a corn dog.  But then around an hour later, I felt as if my heart was going to stop.  But that aside, I would 100% get it again, but only once a year."  Making this concoction even more intriguing, is that EZ Cafe that sells it is situated right next to a building aptly called, The Better Living Center, selling over 2,000 burgers day on weekends.

Now, I have read that it is also called the Luther Burger, because Luther Vandross loves it so much.
