Kidding aside, I now think I was served (bagged) one of those by mistake one time, must have been. The varnish on the raw burger is what gives it away as being just what I got minus pins and toothpicks, and that burger was better than some other hamburgers I've gotten where the meat was unidentifiable.

The "fries" made of potatoes and wheat stuck in styrofoam, however, I missed that.

It might help the Andrew Smash-type businesses (they were healthy vegetarian fast food with colorful shakes, veggieburgers, fries, etc.)
