Deep-fried Big Macs could become the latest foodie trend after a fan of the McDonald's favorite tried frying the dish and later posted photos to social media.
“I was inspired to make the deep-fried Big Mac because Big Macs are the only thing I like from McDonald's and everyone knows deep-fried is always better, so I just put two and two together,” Jeremy of PeepMyEats.com told the Daily Mail. “Next thing you know I have this awesome creation."
The recipe, shared through the food blog’s video, calls for a McDonald’s Big Mac, two eggs, and breadcrumbs, and only takes a few minutes for anyone to make in a deep-fryer.
The recipe will add a whopping 1,000 calories to the traditional 563-calorie Big Mac, the Daily Mail noted.
The blog posted a photo of the heart attack-worthy burger on Instagram, dismissing themselves from any negative health effects their creation could cause.
Junkfood lovers have shared mixed reactions about the deep-fried Big Mac via Twitter. Some crave the creation, others are grossed-out, and some just cannot stop thinking about it.
