Clearly designed for the frugal limosine liberal — hey, Chuckie Schumer, here is a cheap meal for you....
What would the Obamessiah think of this? How about the rest or the world? Oh the humanity.
Totally ridiculous and snooty for no other reason than to appear ‘snooty elite’ .... heck, whats next(?), some rich elite schumck going one better and demanding a “Platinum Burger” ??? GEEZ !!
Why would you want to eat gold? Goldshlager’s good every now and then but why put it on a burger. Kind of curious as to what it tastes like now though.

And it all comes out the same as a .55 cent White Castle...
Just POOP!
haha a burger with gold flake dustings? that’s not fine dining, that’s something out of a jay-z video.
I’ll take two, hold the precious metal
large fry and a Dr. Pepper
Shucks, down here we’d call that a K-Yburger..
I’ll take the angus burger with home fries if ya don’t mind.
I had sake with gold leaf in it in Japan. Didn’t do anything for me (the gold, not the sake. That got me hammered).
For example, to the people of Africa, where you can feed a child for a year on $25 according to certain charities, Americans chowing down on $2 Burger King Whoppers must seem like utter decadence to them.
Well some people on this thread might find it hard to believe, but in New York City, $175 is not a big deal for many people living there.
Let's say that you are an executive in Manhattan who makes about $875,000 a year. Well, to you, spending $175 on a hamburger for lunch is the exact same as a construction worker making $40,000 spending $8 for a hamburger lunch at Applebees.
Divide $175 into $875,000 and that represents .02% of that executives income. Divide $8 into the $40,000 income of the contruction worker and you get the exact same .02% ratio.
Therefore, the executive is no more decadent than the construction worker. And if Donald Trump or Warren Buffet go in for that $175 hamburger than they are probably slumming.
So in conclusion, I think it's a good thing that there are people out there who can easily afford $175 for a hamburger.
“thats gold leaf sprinkled on top. How weird.”
Probably $2 worth of gold-colored confetti purchased at Hobby Lobby or Michaels... ;)
It seems that many of them heed the old saying- "You can't take it with you". They seem to try to waste, utterly and completely, good old fashioned money. The old fashioned conservative, while pretty greedy, would at least try to spin some money off to a good cause.
One could go to certain modern art. Millions spent on a piece of junk. Easy come, easy go.
So it goes.
I spent $3.24 today for lunch at Mickey D’s today... 2 double cheeseburgers and a $1, 42oz iced tea.
I’m a cheapskate.

Nouveau riche, get it? Dang, these city fellers are clever.
