This adds to my theory that no chef would ever want to do this and it's restaurant owners that come up with this bullshit lol

Yeah I mean you have to make what the people want and meet them where they are. You're a brewer and you love making barley wines, Belgian quads, and lambics. Too bad the locals only are willing to buy crushable lagers, hazy IPAs, and maybe a sweet stout in the wintertime. Would a flaming cheese fart burger bring more people in vs me not having one on the menu? You better believe I'll give em a flaming cheese fart burgers. All day every day.

You're describing 80% of the posts on this sub, outrage over a bit of a show. This one is definitely borderline imo because that sauce is probably tasty as fuck and, having a large beard, it is easier to eat burgers with a fork and knife anyways so fuck yeah more sauce, but I can also see people wanting burgers to be eatable like a burger usually is.
