There, now let's see what SL has to offer us today to make you guys stop thinking about how well smelly cheese would go with a doped steak and vegetables on steroids. And no, calling that monstrosity a gourmet cheese burger with extra beef and free-trade fries doesn't make it any easier to swallow! Who wants this gooey stuff anyway? YEECH!
