If you have only ever seen normal burgers then there is a gaping hole right in the centre of your life. Hey, let’s put this right just now.

These little fellows are snacks people put traditionally put straight into their slobbering mouths without a second thought but the best and worst burgers are very strange creatures indeed.

The Squid Ink Bun Burger

The Best and Worst Burgers in the World

So, this is what a burger in a squid ink bun looks like then? Hmm, very impressive. That only leaves us with one simple question. Why in the name of the good Lord would anyone even want a squid ink bun?

The Cheeseburger in a Tin

Best and Worst Burgers in the World

Doesn’t your mouth just start to water when you look at this enormously enticing tin? The idea of putting a cheeseburger in a tin is so insanely brilliant that only the Germans could have thought of it. Apparently, campers are the lucky market segment this product is aimed at.

The World’s Smallest Burger Meal

The Best and Worst Burgers in the World

Do you know those days when you really want a tasty burger with some fries and a soda but aren’t all that hungry? Yeah? Good.

The Donut Burger

The Best and Worst Burgers in the World

You might have been lucky to come across this donut based delight at some point in your life. That’s right; it’s a burger with a donut instead of a bun. There appears to be rather a lot of cheese and bacon on it as well. I have seen it called as Luther Burger, a Krusty Kreme Burger and an oh-my-god- get- that-calorie-bomb-away-from-me Burger.

The 1Up Mushroom Burger

The Best and Worst Burgers in the World

In case you hadn’t worked it out, this is a Mario Bros inspired heap of strange burger weirdness. It is one you can make yourself at home, so have a look for the instructions if you want to add some Mario Bros style fun to your burger time.

The Deep Fried Burger

The Best and Worst Burgers in the World

You know, when I first started thinking about the worst burgers in the world I completely forget that I grew up with one of them. As a kid back in Scotland I would marvel at how the local “chip shop” takeaways would have a multitude of deep fried delights on display. Among these was the king of cholesterol and the baron of body fat. Let me introduce you to the deep fried hamburger. Genius.

The Cheesescraper

The Best and Worst Burgers in the World

What the hell is that thing and how quickly would it kill me? If you have never before had nightmares about being drowned in a sea of molten cheese then you may very well start to now. One of the world’s best or worst burgers might be under all that cheese, I guess.

The Giant Burger

The Best and Worst Burgers in the World

There are quite a few burgers with the claim of being the world’s biggest. I ain’t going to upset any apple carts by plumping for one over the rest of the contenders. However, this mammoth beast is called the Absolutely Ridiculous Burger and is supposedly the largest and possibly best burger commercially available. If you are ever in this restaurant with a group of 40 friends you might want to order one to share.

The Bacon Burger

The Best and Worst Burgers in the World

No, it’s not a giant squid. It’s a burger with an obscenely huge amount of bacon on it. In fact, it would probably have been easier just frying a pig and sticking it straight on top of that old thing.
