I'll make you a burger, but it will have a fried egg on it. Will you eat it?

No, I’m allergic to eggs.

Oh yes. It’s awesome. Especially if it’s done right and the fried egg has a runny yolk (but that’s a proper fried egg, period, never mind being on a burger). With fried mushrooms as well, and really good thick cut and very hot and crispy fries under the burger (medium rare, of course) to soak up the yummy combination of burger grease mingled with egg yolk dripping onto them.

Around here a burger served with a fried egg on it has a name, too: a “Texas Burger”. Which apparently raises eyebrows from here to, well, to Texas from anyone actually from Texas who sees a menu item like that in a NY diner. Yet another entry in a long line of food named for “other” places for really no obvious reason whatsoever.

I just Googled images of eggburgers.

Damn you all.

I gotta go eat.

Sure, I’d give it a try. I like burgers, I like fried eggs (over hard, thanks). Hold the mustard and black pepper, though - my intestines revolt when I eat those.

In the wonderful anime series “Rozen Maiden”, hamburgers with fried eggs in the shape of flowers were the living dolls favorite dinner. They called them Flower Topped Hamburgers.

In case you didn’t know…

The perfect burger has a fried egg with a runny yolk on it, so, yes. Hell yes.

Sure, as long as the white is thoroughly cooked.

You lost me at “and”.

Expect a lawsuit from French McDonald’s.

To the OP- oh yeah.

Ditto, plus eggs are some of the most bacteria-laden foodstuffs available for lawful consumption, and serve as an excellent nutrient media for the growth of a number of infectious microorganisms found in the everyday environment. Think about this next time you order Eggs Benedict at the International House of Cream and Sugar: that Hollandaise sauce covering your plate has been matriculating at 130 °F for the last two kitchen shifts has been sporting mass warfare between competing species of food-borne bacteria, the winner of which has the privilege of setting up shop in your intestinal tract for the next 24-72 hours. It’s like being Central Europe during the Völkerwanderung.

Absolutely, as long as the yolk is fried hard because my digestive system hates me and won’t let me eat eggs with flavor anymore.

Yes, I will. Gimme.

Never had it but I’d give it a try.

I don’t know what word you were going for but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t matriculating.

I’d at least try it. I’ve had a lot worse things than an egg-topped burger.

It’s not the way I would make a burger, but if you’re cooking dinner, I’ll eat it. Egg on a burger wouldn’t be half bad, and even if it were, etiquette would still say that when someone else cooks for you, you don’t complain.

No I do not want an egg on my burger.

I’d only eat it if I was literally starving and had no other food.

WTF?

Hamburgers are supposed to have a fried egg on them. And beetroot… and a slice of pineapple…

:smiley:

What Kimbo said.

What’s wrong with you “Rest of the World” people??? Next you’ll be slagging off Vegemite.

“Wahey! Clint, ya Eggburger!”
