Aug 18, (THAINDIAN NEWS) For those who are not too worried about putting on the extra calories and risking their diet the Krispy Kreme Cheeseburger is like a sinful temptation to indulge in! The delicacy has become quite popular nowadays and it can be eaten during lunch, dinner or breakfast. Basically it is a $5 burger bundled with a yummy Krispy Kreme doughnut in place of the usual hamburger bun. The dieticians would like to say that it is a junk food with high calorie value but that is not preventing the people with a sweet tooth to have a bite at this delicacy. The Wisconsin state fair officials said that it has a calorie value of 500 but the claim has not been widely accepted. Some people think the Calorie count in this burger is above 500.
The Krispy Kreme Cheeseburger is now available in several state fairs and the foodies are buying it in huge numbers regardless of the risk to their health. The burger was first popularized by Paula Deen the Food Network host. There are some businesses who sell this burger with a tad variation to add taste and woo the foodies. Those who are conscious about their calorie intake can always add some lettuce leaf in it. Some people also like it with a few pieces of bacon thrown in. The price of the dish can vary between $4.50 to $6.50 according to the ingredients and the places.
The Krispy Kreme Cheeseburger has also become popular through word of mouth publicity. It is not a must have dish anyway but the interest among the buyers are growing.
