Merwin Barrientos finishes 26×26 burger
OC Weekly has an article about Anaheim resident Merwin Barrientos’ completion of a 26(patties)x26(cheese slices) sandwich from In N Out Burger. He had to finish his meal at an outside table because the restaurant closed before he could complete it. Like Kate Stelnick, Barrientos does not intend to use his successful consumption of a megaburger as a springboard for a competitive eating career.
