Continuing with the hotdog theme, Carl's Jr. and Hardee's has produced a hotdog-hamburger hybrid that is layered with potato chips and cheese.
At more than 1,000 calories, "The Most American Thick Burger" is extreme even for Carl's Jr., which is known as the most "Bro" brand in fast food.
The restaurant chain is famous for its racy ads with swimsuit models, monster trucks and over-the-top burgers.
With $3 billion in sales last year and growth that outpaced many of its competitors, Carl's Jr. has reason to stick with its high-calorie food and the "sex sells" advertising it's known for.
