Mac & Cheese Burger Buns

The Walking Ched by Zombie Burgers is Made for the Brave

For those legitimately worried about the zombie apocalypse, they might as well bite the bullet (or in this case, burger) with the Walking Ched. A killer creation, the Walking Ched is a monster of a burger. In place of the traditional burger buns, it boasts a breaded and deep fried macaroni and cheese bun. Yes, that was written right.

Appropriately created by Zombie Burger, a food joint located in Des Moines, Iowa, the Walking Ched comes complete with bacon, cheddar cheese, caramelized and raw onions, mayo and, of course, more mac and cheese. A heart-attack waiting to happen, the Walking Ched is made for the brave. It is hard to say what would be harder to deal with, this incredible burger or a real life zombie.
