Burgers and Kate Upton. I love them both. So much so that Ms. Upton recently replaced In-N-Out Burger as the background on my phone. But what does this bodacious babe have in common with a cheeseburger, other than the fact that they’re both juicy and delicious and they make my mouth water?

It’s Wednesday, which means it’s Would You Rather time. Today’s match-up is, frankly, one I’m surprised we haven’t done before. Oh, and it is cruel. Burgers or sandwiches? If you’re anything like me, this choice is a brutal sacrifice of a delicious food option. Option #1: You can never eat burgers again. Option #2: You can never eat [...]
