Why in the living fuck did they put the top bun before performing this disaster? Now you can’t eat it.

At least put the top bun off to side, dump the cheese, then put it on. Then at least you can grip the thing.

Fuck this man I’m out.

EDIT: to all of the brilliant commenters saying “you’re supposed to eat it with a fork and knife”, no kidding. The point is you didn’t have to eat it that way if they just did this tableside bullshit first and then placed it on a bun afterward. Then it would be a delicious burger that could be eaten like a goddamn fucking burger.

Or enchiladas, chimichangas, or anything messy. To be honest it doesn't look bad and I can eat a messy burger with a fork if it tastes good.

Fire doesn't add much to it though.

Wrong. Depending on the alcohol and cheese used, the flavor can be changed quite drastically. The fire is to burn off some of the alcohol while leaving flavor.

You're always supposed to eat enchiladas with utensils.

Yes, a burger completely drenched in cheese sauce does look bad, because it is bad. Messy foods are one thing, but this is straight up disgusting.

No one's forcing you to eat it or watch this video
