Carl's Jr. Brings Out the Footlong Cheeseburgers

July 14, 2010 7:09 am · Posted by nancyeinhart

Is it a burger or a sandwich? Or merely a monstrosity? In Santa Ana, CA, Carl's Jr. is testing a new footlong cheeseburger, which Food Beast suggests is an attempt to generate some Double Down-like buzz. It's basically a sub sandwich on what sounds and looks like subpar bread, with multiple burger patties as the meat filling.

I'd argue that this is more of a sandwich than a burger. Like a patty melt, it uses hamburgers inside another sandwich shape, as opposed to a hambuger, which is its own defined thing. What do you think? And would you try it?

What could possibly follow soft shell crab po'boys at Parasol's in New Orleans? Burgers and breakfast at the Camellia Grill in Riverbend.
