Eat Dan Savage's Hamburger, Make Marriage Equality into Reality!

Lovely! Out of respect for their "marketing for a cause (but 75% for us)" a la Macklemore I made a contribution.

I think it's so you can nibble around the edges - like people who eat the crust off their sandwich first before digging into the middle.

@3: I totally agree. A good burger can definitely be a little sloppy, but the flavor dissipates when it gets piled on like that mess.

I really think the Savage Love Burger, or the Dan Savage Hamburger, should be an allusion to a sex act, ala Santorum. Only obviously something more fun and appealing.

Swiss cheese is too mild for a burger, especially one with so much other shit on it, particularly bacon and onions.
Maybe if it's a really aged swiss, to bring some kick to it, then maybe... otherwise, the taste of the cheese is just lost.

With the headline on this, it's a shame one of the Capitol Hill hot dog stands didn't get the idea first: "Eat Dan Savage's Wiener, Make Marriage Equality into Reality!" #missedopportunity

What does raping a cow, killing a cow, and killing a pig have to do with gay marriage? Did Blue Moon just call gay marriage immoral?

Yeah, I agree. More is not necessarily better on a burger. I can't enjoy one when I am more concerned with keeping it together (and from falling apart) than I am with just the sheer joy of it. I guess a paper wrapper is an OK way of solving that dilemma. But keeping the paper wrapper where it protects you from the drippings and not winding up in your bite is an art form. I've seen masters. I have a lot to learn.

I would do this, but the one Blue Moon burger I had (in SLU) was terribly salty. I guess it's appropriate then for the Savage Love Burger to be filled with salty goodness...

@12: If you honestly think that cows are raped before they're slaughtered, I don't care to know what the rest of things are like on your planet.

#16: Yep, if there's one thing about animal abusers and beef eaters, it's that they're free thinkers? Nice mental gymnastics there, bring home the gold for USA.

I think @12 equates milking (to make cheese) with rape.
Lack of protein leads to delusional and faulty "thinking" like that...

@19: aww, muffin. Are there still splinters on that stick up your butt? Or is it sand in your vagina? Either way it must suck to be that humorless.

If it's 25% of the gross proceeds then it's a really fabulous way for Blue Moon to show their support and get some free advertising (this thread). If it's 25% of the profit then I agree with @1 that it's kind of lame -- but the burger still looks tasty.
