ST. LOUIS -- The Hardee's fast food chain has rolled out its new 1,400-calorie Monster Thickburger, with 107 grams of fat.

The sandwich boasts two one-third-pound beef patties, four strips of bacon, three slices of cheese, topped with mayonnaise on a buttered sesame seed bun.

"The result is an updated version of a classic that requires two hands, a firm grip and a serious appetite," said a statement from the restaurant.

Available in all Hardee's restaurants starting Monday, the Monster Thickburger costs $5.49. For a $7.09, it comes with fries and a soda.

An executive said it's the burger that "everyone would like to get, but not the one you get all the time."

6. Are they going to airlift a couple of these to Iraq to feed the troops?

Or was it designed for Bush supporters who don't care if they get fatter because the apocalypse is near?
