Writer Will Self reviews the Burger King Whopper: "[I] tried to get the edge of the Whopper into my mouth. Two things occurred to me while this was going on: first, that it would be useful if I could disarticulate my jaw like an anaconda; second, that perhaps the point of these stacked foodstuffs is to induce a gag reflex in the consumer, convincing her that she's already overeaten before taking the first bite. Then - and bear in mind that I was still trying to eat the thing - I made the mistake of looking in front of me." [New Statesman]
