Words of Wisdom from Gigi

Gigi, my 6-year-old, offered words of burger wisdom to me last night as we dove into our dinner. She said :

"Daddy, the burger is the most important part of a hamburger. Without that, it wouldn't be a hambuger." Which totally confirms the BurgerTour.org tagline, "IT'S ALL ABOUT THE MEAT."

That's one big burger.

134-pound burger is savored in Southgate; then it's sold and eaten

Detroit, Michigan - Saturday was probably the first time the line at the back of Mallie's Sports Grill & Bar in Southgate wasn't for the restrooms. Dozens of customers -- some with a cell phone in each hand ready to take a picture -- jockeyed for position just outside the entrance to the kitchen. They wanted to get the first glimpse at a 134-pound hamburger that could break the Guinness world record for the largest commercially available hamburger. "Whoa, that's a big burger," said Marvetta Howard, 51, of Detroit, who had a seat near the kitchen. "I'm impressed. You don't often see a Guinness record broken, so I'll be buying a copy of the book when it comes out." The previous record was 123 pounds.
