£95 burger launched

[OMEN]

A fast food restaurant has launched the world's most expensive burger - a £95 gourmet special. Burger King's new sandwich, named simply The Burger, makes Guinness World Record history by beating the American Double Truffle Burger which cost £65 in 1994.

It features the world's most succulent Japanese Wagyu beef with white truffles, onion tempura prepared in Cristal champagne and Italy's finest Pata Negra prosciutto

The burger will be served at the chain's Gloucester Road branch in West London or can be pre-ordered by phone.

Proceeds go to charity Help A London Child.

Burger King chiefs say it is aimed at people seeking "the ultimate burger taste experience".

But restaurant critics dismissed the burger as the latest stunt in a marketing craze which has seen Selfridges charge £85 for a sandwich and a Sloane Square department store ask £50 for a cup of coffee pre-digested by a Civet cat.

Wow, that's interesting. Wonder if it tastes as good as how much it costs?

Well if I had a spare £95, I think I'd buy it!

I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole, or eat it even if they paid me 95 GBP to eat it!

I am very anti-fast food for my own reasons, and this just proves one of my reasons is right - they will do anything to make a dollar.
