Ever heard of a $175 burger?

Well, if you work, eat or live near Wall Street, then you probably heard of it.  The restaurant where it is featured is called The Wall Street Burger Shoppe.  The burger used to costs $150 but they raised their prices recently.  I don’t know about you but I love diner burgers.  The most I would pay for a burger is $10 or $15.

Look at what the $175 burger contains:

*Kobe beef patty
*Lots of Black Truffles (I don’t even know what truffles tastes like, do you?)
*Seared Foie Gras
*Aged Gruyere Cheese
*Wild Mushrooms
*Flecks of Gold leaf on a Brioche Bun

How’s that for a tasty burger?  In my opinion, I think I would puke if someone gave me a burger like that.  Foie Gras?? Do you know what Foie Gras is? It is the liver from a duck that had been forcefully fed so that the liver meat can be tender.  I’ve seen the video on Youtube; what they do to those ducks, isn’t nice at all.

Surprisingly, the eatery sells about 20 to 25 of those burgers a month.  Are you hungry?
