Someone could have warned me.
 

So, I decide to go to Carl's, Jr tonight. It is probably the 2nd or 3rd time I have ever been to one. I see their $6 burger list, looks interesting.

At the bottom of the list is their "low carb burger - only 6 grams" - although I am not on any Atkins diet or anything I decide to order one to see what the difference is. Boy, was I in for a surprise.

I get home, open it up, and it is a fucking hamburger with no bun, but lettuce instead! WTF? I am sure glad I wasn't trying to eat on the run or that would have been a real drag.

So, so all of these places that advertise "low carb" menus do that to you? Give you some meat in between two pieces of lettuce?

Also, if they are giving you a low carb burger, why are they offering a combo (with fries)? Isn't that a little self-defeating?

Discuss

kinda makes me think about people that order a supersize mcdonals meal with a diet coke

The funny thing is places usually charge you more when they're giving you less food...

LOL!!! :1orglaugh

Hubby did Atkins. Lost 95 pouinds last year.

The whole lettuce burger thing is ridiculous though. Ha ha ha.

a hamburger with no bun is a sirloin steak, and is meant to be eaten with a fork and knife, not your hands.

Hey,
Deancapture was posting the pic a couple of times.. )

well, to their credit it was the least expensive $6 burger they had . . . of course there was no cheese, guacamole, bacon, chili, or whatever else they offered

guess I will have to come do a search on GFY before I hit a fastfood restaurant I am not familiar with next time :1orglaugh

You better ask the experts on that one! :winkwink:

Yeah, GFY has experts for all your needs :1orglaugh

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

haha, that sucks

tgi fridays has a low carb menu,and you can find the same shit on the regular menu for $1 less than the low carb menu

Did you eat it anyway?

hello

yeah, but I had to break out a plate, fork and knife . . . if I wanted to do dishes I would have just fixed something myself

Welcome to hell, my friend.

You think vegans are a pain in the ass? ;) Don't EVEN get into it with these Atkins people.

I think vegans are fun to fuck with

dam, i do that!

Hamburger with no bun? 6 bucks and you need to supply your own bun?

didnt know what low carb meant? it is kinda pointless to offer it with fries though.

I like the "In and Out? burgers... 4x4 animal style, guaranteed heart attack! ...but damn good burger!

:thumbsup

i go with the 12x12 myself

well, they only call it the $6 burger because that is how much it would cost in a sit down restaurant, they are about $4 or $4.50 I think

In & Out is about 3 miles away. . . . too far to drive for a burger, plus I could never eat one of those at night time, too much food

no, if I knew it meant no bun I never would have bought it

ah. i think they have a commercial for it now
it shows a fat burger covered on bbq sauce ploping down wrapped in lettuce. carls jr is over priced crap that is always cold when i get it. i stay away now.

I don't really watch tv, I pretty much just listen to it, and don't recall hearing that commercial

I've been wanting to try one of those lettuce burgers.
