Youtuber們開始在曼谷一家漢堡店相互挑戰最大份餐點—一塊將近6公斤的漢堡排，覆蓋著炸洋蔥圈、培根和美乃滋—隨後，這家店在網路爆紅。

「克里斯牛排與漢堡」提供1萬泰銖獎金，給可以在9分鐘內吃光這份超級大餐的人—1卡路里給1泰銖。
Owner Komdech Kongsuwan, who says it is the country’s biggest burger, dreamed up the contest after three customers managed the feat. New challengers are coming through the door every day.
在3名客戶吃出戰績後，聲稱此乃全國最大漢堡的老闆孔戴克．康蘇旺發想出這場比賽。每天有新挑戰者上門。
