Giant burgers causing injuries

[Cermage]

TAIWANESE dentists have urged fast food chains to drop over-sized hamburgers from their menus following a growing number of jaw injury cases, a report said.

Patients have developed sore jaws or had difficulties opening their mouths after consuming giant burgers, the China Post quoted professor Hsu Ming-lung of the School of Dentistry at National Yang-Ming University as saying.

Problems can arise when fast-food fans tuck into hamburgers larger than eight centimetres high, Hsu said according to the paper.

A human mouth is designed to gape over objects measuring up to four centimetres, and overextending can hurt the joint between the jawbone and the temporal bone in front of the ears, Hsu said.

HOLY S-

Burger joints won't change anything unless they get caught up in a lawsuit over it. Then that only MIGHT force them to change.

 

[Veho]

I don't see why burger joints should have to do anything about it. Boo hoo hoo, coffee hot, fries pointy, burger big. Learn how to eat, you idiots.

I don't remember pretzel makers having to do change the shape or size of pretzels after GWB choked on one.

Are you kidding? After Bush choked they made all of them that shape.

How exactly does the hamburger get in your mouth, without you stretching your mouth? I can't say I've ever seen someone take a bite of half of their hamburger before.

makes me wonder how the japanese didn't end up with many (if any) jaw injuries with their win7 whopper. that thing had to be at least 8cm.

They could dissect it and eat the meat piece by piece. Then leave a meat or two in the burger then eat the burger.

get a fat guy to sit on it?
or take it apart and eat it bit by bit
or get an injury.

Lol, you don't. People who try are responsible for their own pain.

If a fat guy sat on it then I don't think I'd want it anymore...but if it's Burger King then I wouldn't want it in the first place.

But if it won't fit all at once then just take a couple of bites, half each.

Why hasn't anyone said anything about the chili's big mouth burgers I had a sore jaw for 3 days after trying to eat it for 40 mins.

 

[gameboy13]

I was told by buddies that the Windows 7 burger was really really bad.

Pretty dry, because you get lots of meat with nothing between!
