George Motz’s Fried Onion Cheeseburg “Respect the Chain”

 The Burger Scholar himself, George Motz, schools us on his take on the iconic Oklahoma Fried Onion Burger. From the five ingredients—and five ingredients only—responsible for this masterpiece to the fine art of the pinch and pull, the inimitable burgersmith spills the secrets behind his legendary spin on the classic smashburger (which, BTW, will be the star of the show at his latest burger joint, Hamburger America, opening in SoHo next spring).

One Pound Kanak Attack at Teddy's Bigger Burgers

At Teddy’s in Hawaii, the Kanak Attack is a juicy one pound cheeseburger including Avocado, Onion Rings, Bacon, Spud & Teddy’s special sauce. The name seems fitting considering that in Hawaii this is slang for needing a nap after eating too much 

McDonald’s USA x Cactus Plant Flea Market Box

The Mcdonalds Cactus Fle Market Box brings you back to days of being a kid and heading to McDonald’s with your parents for a happy meal. I remember it was all about getting the happy meal toy.  The Cactus Plant Flea Market Box has literally recreated that exciting feeling. I think nostalgia box could also be a great name for this. McDonald’s also brought back characters from our past including the Hamburglar, Grimace & Birdie. They even added a brand new character named Cactus Buddy.  


Dubai Cheesecake Factory's Chicken Bellagio

 Dubai is one of the world’s most extravagant and luxurious destinations which is why we had to eat at the Cheesecake Factory. This location is Halal which means pork isn’t served, so any menu item that would normally include pork, has been changed to  either beef or chicken.  We thought it would be fun to try the Chicken Bellagio because the dish includes prosciutto. Usually in the states the prosciutto would be pork but here it has been changed to beef prosciutto which is very exciting!  

Ben & Jerry’s

We are at the Ben & Jerry’s Factory in Waterbury, Vermont. We chat with Sean Greenwood  and check out the Ice Cream Factory, the Flavor Graveyard, and the Scoop Shop where we try the Vermonster. The Vermonster includes  20 scoops of ice cream, two bananas, two cookies, two brownies, four toppings , hot fudge, hot caramel, and whipped cream. 


We then meet up with Flavor Guru, Kim and create Respect the Chain's Ice Cream Flavor
