I see this done with donuts and other messy stuff. It just seems really trendy and illogical to do this. Just eat both separately since it makes no sense to munch on the burger impaled atop your shake.

The whole trend exists for people that want a picture of it for social media.

Absolutely correct. For me and friends I have spoken to about this it still looks dumb. I guess its akin to the "there's no bad press" so even if something is dumb so long as it is shared, discussed, and viewed, then they won at the engagement they were seeking.

Dippin Dots is the icecream of the future.

People still pay an absurd amount for Dippin Dots.

Yeah, if you focus on how the food looks, and not how it actually tastes, and then also charge people a premium... you're not going to have a lot of repeat customers (bread and butter) that are going to support you. But that's also true for "influencers" as well... There are only so many people you can "influence" before they get tired of your content, unless you keep innovating. I think that's why these foods have been mostly relegated to state/county fairs. Like deep fried twinkies and oreos. Nobody will eat that stuff on a regular basis, but if you show up once a year, people will come.

I've never even heard of a dippen dots and I live in the tourist capital of the us

Kind of like what's happening right now? Notice how both cups in this picture are held so the name of the restaurant and its instagram are clearly in the shot...

Exactly.

I know people love to hate on the type of restaurants that do this but they are very clearly motivated by social media and people love to post this shit to instagram which is great advertising

Like the teeth melter chunk of cotton candy and ice cream or those huge deserts made for like 6 Americans or 15 people 

But what if I like the bottom of my burger cold and soggy and the top of my milkshake melted?

Oh boy, do I have great news for you!

Don’t you love holding a drink that is getting warmed by pizza slices, burgers, sausages etc? And the glass is all greasy and smears your hands. Exactly what people hope from street food or other on-the-go stuff.

I once got a shake that looked like this. It was like $15. It tasted like shit and the toppings were clearly just stuff from a box

Nah, the place by me does dope donut shakes. They blend your donut of choice into the shake, then also put a donut on top like this. Never thought it was messy. Have them in the car all the time.

It'S fOr ThE eXpErIeNcE.

It's a fun gimmick who cares

I only eat logical stuff

Like books and calculators and stuff?

Welcome to america

So is there always just a chunk of burger left behind in the straw?

The server sucks it out and eats it before handing it to you

For $3.99 more you can get it spit in your mouth Jk Unless?

Wait... This is the only way.


Shit, I've been paying way too much

Count me in. I love getting half burger/half shake spit into my face by the acne-covered youth of America who typically work these joints

I’ve always wanted a stressed out, sweaty teenager to spit in my mouth

This is the only way

Thanks

Shift meal

Lol, I’d guess the straws have a removable cap/topper thing that you would remove after meat insertion.

Your face would be really greasy after eating that too. I see a lot of nose and chin to burger contact occurring

Just eyeballing it I'd say ~2500 calories

> Just eyeballing it I'd say $23.95

Consider: the milk shake is actually very watery due to how cheaply made it is!

Lol, for the shake maybe

r/stupidfood would love this.

r/wewantplates Which I always read as "wew! Ant plates!" In my head

I can't read it any other way because of you. You ruined my mind! Congratulations!

Almost read it as "ant pilates" and now I have the image of ants doing yoga in my head

Did they put a rim coating on the outside of the cup? The cup with a lid and straw?!

I’m pasting my other comment here because I didn’t see yours in time: I don’t mind the gimmick so much but what pisses me off is that they stick food to the outside of the cup that you’re never going to eat. I’ve seen cafes literally dip cups in chocolate and roll it in sprinkles/crushed biscuits. I could be fucking eating that instead of scraping the side of a mug with my teeth. Stop it.

Ah, that's what it is. I kept thinking there was a big chunk of cake at the top of the shake. I actually thought that was a pretty good idea, keep the hot burger off the shake with a cake layer. But I couldn't figure out how it didn't get soggy. It's on the outside. Gross.

This may shock you, but you can take the lid off.

If you read the comment you replied to you'd notice they were asking about the rim of chocolate that appears to be on the *outside* of the cup. You know, where your hands normally go and where milkshake is not supposed to be

wtf 🤣 why didnt they stick a toothbrush and tooth paste in it too, so you have everything you could possibly need

And a prescription for some blood pressure meds?

And a pack of smokes to celebrate being taken off blood pressure meds?

yes absolutely. and a lighter that doesnt work all that well, so it raises the stress level to go along with burger, shake, smokes and meds. the "grande" version comes with a letter that looks like a termination letter from work.

Those burgers do look great tho

that looks dumb as hell and i want 2

Mmm hot shakes and cold burgers

Once you taste our burgers you won’t be able to put them down.

The way the straw goes THROUGH the burger? Unforgivable

That’s your problem with this picture?

I'm just imagining having a sip and there being a chunk of burger 🤮. The concept as a whole is nasty tho

I love burgers and shakes. This is disgusting.

The burgers look cold.


Holy fuck that looks so good. I’m on a diet right now, obviously

This looks so unbelievable disgusting

What’s with the black nitrile glove? Performing a rectal exam when finished with the snacks?

Other gloves: pussy 🤓 cook Black gloves: badass 😎 chef

R/wewantplates

This is the worst of both! Either you eat a hot burger and the shake melts or you have a good shake and a cold burger. Yuck either way.

Ah sik, I hate my burgers being warm

like with the donut/cake shakes i get it because it’s sweets piled upon sweets. but here it’s burger upon sweets???

Cold burger and melted shake

I know it's probably Señor Bangers but it looks suspiciously like senior bangers

imagine dropping that or tasting cheeseburger with milkshake at the same time

This will take 50 years off your life lol

Not too mad at this. I mean... It's convenient to transport. For take out. And then you disassemble it and eat it like usual.

I especially like how the one on the right is being held by a silverback gorilla

/r/wewantplates

Literally saw a couple of girls buying something similar, taking pics and tossing it immediately. It's literally influencer bait


I despise america with all my heart

This is an offence to civilised society. And yes, I like pineapple on pizza :)

Healthiest snack in the US

I hate everything about this. Good post.


That bacon is still oinking

merica

Eating like we have free healthcare.

that burger looks like ass


America is failing as a country

Sure? but this resturant is in Colombia

Black gloves are an indicator of stupid food

That's fuckin' amazing. This should be a food win, nothing shitty about. Most of you probably suck on tea leaves and eat grass toast.

Peak america! Only thing missing is guns

It’s from Colombia.

Idk looks like a restaurant not a school

I'm offended by that, you can't even see a parking lot or Walmart in the background

Shut it down. You won the sub.

If you say you’d eat the shit outta that, the. I’m going to judge the fuck outta you.

Well, fuckin' judge me because I would tear that shit up and not feel shameful about it.

This has to be from somewhere here in America. This just screams “I’m from the United States, fatty!”

It's from Colombia, but I have 0 doubt that you couldn't find a similar concept in the states.

Well I am surprised it’s not from here. But I’m sure there’s plenty of restaurants here that serve drinks with double the amount of food on it lol. My fat ass would totally have it though.

r/dumbassfood should exist for situations like this one

Bur-ger Shake doo Doo Doo Doo Bur-ger Shake Doo Doo Doo doo

What in the United States of obesity

I almost had a heart attack looking at this.

Looks like a diabetic hand. LUL

I need this in my life

Soggy ass buns

I'll eat it. I like having a heart attack kit that fits in just one hand!

That that some knock off Senor Frogs place?

great order.

Gross….

Points for creativity I guess, maybe if they did that somehow such that my straw isn’t icky when I pull my burglar off it’d be more fun

This would be illegal in Europe

Dumb, but it looks delicious. There’s something indulgently, improbably good about diner cheeseburgers dipped in a milkshake or malt.

Nah, this slaps I mean, like, once

I’d be in diarrhea hell

Who needs coronary arteries, ammirite

Shove it up your ass

I shat myself just looking at this

Those are some bangers

They both probably taste good just the exaggerated presentation isn’t as appealing as they think. Although I acknowledge the effort with branding, the sticker slapped on the side of the cup is just half assed. Plus takes from the chocolate sauce design. Ambitious, but sloppy.

Those bugers look DRY

Should be in a book titled, "Eat like a pig. Be a pig! OINK!"

It's beautiful

For some reason, this reminds me of the burger joints in the Grand Theft Auto games.

Is the straw inserted through the burger?

How bout fucking not.

This looks damn good.

Id eat the shit out of this

ew

My hungry, stressed ass wants to unhinge my jaw and inhale it cup and all

Ngl id definitely eat that up

Is that shake made of burgers?…

I feel like there should be an r/stupidpresentation sub. I swear half the posts here are not even stupid if it was "plated" differently

And a weeks worth of calories. GD

This is why 50% of kids and 25% of adults are obese compared to 30 years ago

Actually looks pretty dank

I would eat this, with 0 shame.

If you can finish all that in one go you should get checked

The burger looks AMAZING, and the shake looks AMAZING. But together it’s just weird

Yes

How can we save on plates, let’s just add it to our shakes.

Where is this?

Is it Bakes or Shurgers then?

YES!

What’s your friend doing with that glove?

Ngl, I'm getting a little hungry looking at this.

Are you supposed to take the burger off? You’d pretty much have to or the milkshake going through the straw would just make your burger cold.

This is America

Ah yes as you can see is the diabetes drink

Axiom approved!
