Everything is better with bacon, right? So, how about getting rid of that ridiculous "hamburger" part and making the whole entree with bacon? Genius idea!

ABCNEWS.GO.COM reports:
Slater’s 50/50, a California chain made famous for its half-bacon, half-beef burger, has gone bacon-crazy. The ‘Merica, the restaurant’s July burger of the month, is a 100 percent ground bacon burger topped with more bacon, a sunny-side-up egg, bacon island dressing and bacon cheddar cheese. The concept for Slater’s 50/50 Burgers by Design came out of a dare at a Charger’s tailgate party between owner Scott Slater and some of his San Diego State University buddies. Could a 100 percent ground bacon burger work?

False advertising. The bun is made out of flour.

The KING routinely ate a pound of bacon a day, along with his peanut butter & banana sandwiches fried in butter.

Yeah, and he never died from any of that. Far from it! He died from the love of drugs.

The thought of all that sodium alone is more than I can handle, never mind the fat content. Pass.

You’d be surprsed how much sodium is in the bun!

Not worried about that, least of the problems in retrospect.

Seriously, buns have a lot of sodium, more than you think. It’s not just salt. It’s the baking soda (aka sodium bicarbonate).

Burgers need variety. That's what makes a burger a burger. If there's just bacon, it's not a burger anymore. Just a pile of bacon in the form of a burger...plus some bread and eggs.
