I know we’re supposed to talk about made-up stuff…but Denny’s has a new breakfast called (I think) the Triple Play combo or something. Scrambled eggs, ham, bacon, sausage, and pancakes. I’m guessing it comes with a fist-sized hunk of butter as well. (Alternate name suggestions are “Triple Bypass” and “Three Strikes, You’re Out!”)
Another real-life culinary puzzle. McDonald’s (America’s last bastion of nutrition) has a breakfast sammich. Eggs, cheese, McSausage, plus bacon and more cheese. All on a bagel.
You know what this country needs? More pork products smothered in processed cheese!

Butter: It’s not just a cake topping, but a steak sauce as well. (Really, it’s pretty good, too.)

You get a fried beef patty, smothered in golden cheese, bacon, pork bits, salt, butter with a sunny side up egg on top. We call it the ‘good morning burger’.
About 5 years ago, I was out in Colorado and had a cheeseburger with an egg on it. It was scrambled, not sunny side up, and I do believe there was bacon involved. It was at a Red Robin Restaurant in Denver. (Why would anyone want a cheeseburger with an egg on it? It was a cheeseburger with an egg on it!! Maybe I was drinking, maybe not. I ain’t sayin’ nuthin’.)
The last time I was through Indianapolis, I saw a Red Robin there. Maybe they are slowly coming to get me.

You may well HAVE been drinkin’, Rue, but that doesn’t change the fact that yes, Red Robin does offer an egg as a topping to some of their famously-over-dressed burgers. Used to go there fairly frequently when living in WA several years back. I tried it; frankly, the innocuousness of fried poultry albumen tends to get sort of lost against the fervor of flame-grilled beef and by-products.
