If a slice of bacon is roughly 1\/16th of an inch and there are 63,360 inches in a mile (thanks WolframAlpha), then it would take 1,013,760 slices of bacon in order for Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s Mile High Bacon Cheese Thickburger to truly reach a mile high in bacon.<\/p>\n
Of course, the new burger has a fraction of a fraction of that.<\/p>\n
The bacon Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s is using is their premium, thick-cut Applewood-smoked bacon and it sits on top of a charbroiled, 100 percent Black Angus beef patty, American cheese, red onions, tomato, lettuce, and mayonnaise. The burger is available with a 1\/3- or 1\/2-lb. patty, is served on a Fresh Baked Bun, and starts at $5.59.<\/p>\n
A Mile High Bacon Cheese Thickburger with a 1\/4 lb. patty has 780 calories, 55 grams of fat, 17 grams of saturated fat, 125 milligrams of cholesterol, 1700 milligrams of sodium, 34 grams of carbohydrates, 3 grams of fiber, 8 grams of sugar, and 35 grams of protein. <\/p>\n
