Two Fastfood Addicts Celebrated Their Marriage With Giant Cheeseburger

Burger is already a part in American's diet. Yet we still looking at it as junk food, with high fat and potassium rate, low in nutrition and we could only consume it on daily life, not as a menu in party. But there is a couple of food addicts who take it as an important part of their life.

Tom and Kerry Watts, both are fast food addicts, celebrated their marriage with special wedding cake - a 42lb giant cheeseburger. This couple set the big cheeseburger as highlight of their party in Zak's American Diner in Norwich.

So, how amazing is this wedding cake, I means cheeseburger? This cheeseburger is nearly half a meter wide, weighted about 100 quarter pounders. John Baxter, the butcher had to worked a whole day long to create a giant burger, which was weighted 400 pounds when it was raw. It had to be cooked for 3 hours, and required 3 chefs to lift it out of oven. What about the bun? The bun alone weighted 5 kg and they had to cut it off using a saw.

Tom Watts said "Not only did I get to marry the woman of my dreams but I also got to have the burger of my dreams in the same day. I could not believe the size of the burger. It was just incredible. Everything has just been amazing. It was the best day ever."

Congratulation to both of you, and this is the for wedding cake revolution! (news)

Chili. Some people might reject it as part of their meal, while some other people in other part of world enjoying it without getting flushed on their face. Some other people even take it as major portion of their meal pepper and won't eat the meal without bunch of chili!

So what really makes those "hot spicy hunter" still consuming chili? Chili contained several chemical agent, collectively called capsaicinoids. When you consuming spicy food, capsaicinoid will bind with pain receptor in your mouth, tongue, and throat. This reaction will triggers burning sensation in your mouth cavity, increasing your heart rate and perspiration, and obviously releasing endorphins to your brain. Endorphins produce excitement feeling, sense of well being, light analgesia (pain relieve). This excitement feeling will recorded in your deep memory, and causing the "chili addiction" to "hot spicy hunter" group.

So, does chili has significant benefits to our health? Yes. Like other fruits, chili contain high amount of carotene, vitamin B, vitamin C, and some minerals (potassium, magnesium, iron). Due to its endorphines releasing effect, consuming chili regularly will decrease chronic pain symptoms. According to latest research, chili could decrease risk for getting cardiovascular disease and type 1 diabetes.

Still cannot adopt with spicy food? You can start with food are only slightly spicy from your currently consumed, try to get comfortable with the hot sensation, and move up with more spicy food. If you get comfortable with spicy food, go to Indian/Thai/Indonesian restaurant. If you can enjoying their deadly spicy foods, congratulation, you have been accepted as "spice daredevil"! But if you had something overly spicy, don't release it with water or beer, it only makes the heat getting worse. Since capsaicinoid is oil based chemical substance, it will only washed away with oil based substance. Milk, sugar yogurt, banana, and strawberry are best relieve for overly spicy and burning sensation in your mouth.

So, are you ready for spicy food?
