Pierre Foods Two-Fers: 2 Char-Broils with Cheese

Another visit to the Pierre Foods kitchen today at the vendy. I got 2 Char-Broils with Cheese for $1.50. Total weight: 4.8 ounces. Unfor­tu­nately I could not find the exact same item on the Pierre Foods site. Instead I’ve linked to the clos­est one. No nutri­tional infor­ma­tion avail­able, unfor­tu­nately.

This item is nuked in the microwave for 30 sec­onds and is then con­sid­ered fully cooked. The pat­ties were matchbox-sized bits of grey­ish meatish sub­stance. The kind of stuff we called “kan­ga­roo meat” in col­lege. One nor­mal slice of amer­i­can cheese was siamesed between the “char-broils” in a dis­play of cheap­ness that rivals my own miserly nature. The buns were sesame seed, hard as a high-school stiffy before cook­ing and soft and wet like a sod­den infant-chewed stuffed ani­mal after being in the microwave. What­ever those sand­wiches were made from, I don’t think it was food.

They were still bet­ter than White Cas­tle slid­ers though.
