Please don't bring this over to the US, we're fat enough as it is...

Haven't the Japanese suffered enough already?

Burger King has transformed the classic Whopper into the aptly named Meat Monster by squeezing two ground beef patties, two slices of cheese, three strips of bacon and a chicken breast between two buns.

That's right, meat lovers: beef, chicken and pork all in one sandwich. Oh, and to keep it healthy, you can add lettuce, tomatoes and onion slices.

Now here's the bad news, America. The burger is only available in Japan.

The Japanese press release for the Meat Monster doesn't include a calorie count, but according to The Consumerist, using typical U.S. ingredients, the burger would tip the scales at 1,160 calories, 69 grams of fat, 13 grams of sugar, 54 grams of carbohydrates and 2.3 grams of sodium. It will set a Japanese burger lover back 820 yen (roughly $9.70).

Apparently, in Japanese "Have it your way" translates into "Here's some heartburn for you."

At first we worried the Meat Monster was a hoax ? the original press release was dated April 1 ? but Lauren Kuzniar, a spokeswoman for Burger King, confirmed that, yes, the burger is a real menu item.

The Meat Monster isn't the only oddball sandwich available at Japan's Burger Kings. The Angry Whopper, the pickle-filled Crazy Whopper, the All Heavy (as in all you people will be heavy) and the Windows 7 Whopper (seven patties!) make America's options look downright slim.

What do you think? Is America ready for the Meat Monster?

Burger King sucks. I hate Whoppers.

But this "new and improved" version of the Whopper has disaster written all over it.

It's just one of those sandwiches "I bet I can eat it"... it'll die out fast, but that's awesome.

Given their numbers, that isn't that bad.

I love BK. I dont know about this thing tho. Im with Steer it will die out.

im tired of people blaming food for making them fat, its not the food its the laziness. if people would get off their computers or out from in front of their televisions and do something we wouldnt be an obese country.

Chicken and bacon? Yay! Beef and bacon? Yay! Bacon and bacon? Yay! Chicken and beef? Not yay. But thanks for making me lose my appetite (as usual) Burger King. Just the thought of that nasty thing already is doing wonders for my new diet ........
