The 1,500 Calorie Big Kahuna Donut Burger

Syracuse.com: Forget Deep-Fried Twinkies and the Mashed Potato Sundae. Heartburn has a new name at this year’s New York State Fair: The Big Kahuna Donut Burger.

Billed as “two meals for the price of one,” the BKDB is this year’s gastronomic innovation, according to the Fair.

It’s a quarter-pound burger placed between a grilled, sliced glazed donut with your choice of cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato and onion -- all for about 1,500 calories. The beast will be sold by the Big Kahuna concession stand located in Times Square next to the Poultry Building. The sandwich will cost between $5 and $6, depending on toppings, according to the AP.

The glazed donuts will come from Harrison Bakery in Syracuse.

The Fair runs from Aug. 25 to Sept. 5.

Alert your cardiologist in advance.
