This is one way to super-size sales: Burger King in the U.K. plans to serve up the world’s most expensive cheeseburger — costing a staggering $170.

The sumptuous sandwich was originally to be made from finest Japanese Kobe beef and topped with foie gras and a rare blue cheese, The Sun newspaper reported.

But later the fast-food chain dropped the foie gras condiment after howls from British animal-rights activists over the use of the goose-liver delicacy.

Burger King said it will roll out the choice cheeseburger in the tony London neighborhoods of Kensington and Chelsea first.

Apparently they are looking for high concentrations of affluent fast-foodies.

You would have to have more money than sense to buy that, will it be served with a Bordeaux milkshake maybe?

Dude, it's actually quite unreal how different it is from regular meat. It's melts in your mouth and it's real silky. I haven't even had the real kobe beef from japan, I had the wagyu that the bring to the US and raise over here. I can't even imagine how good the stuff from japan is.

kobe beef is ridiculously amazing. at my work (ruths chris steakhouse) we have kobe sliders, which are mini kobe burgers, they have been processed and what not tho, but they are AMAZING. the fat content will kill you tho. but it is ridiculous how good they are. and thats just kobe GROUND BEEF. dunno what a steak would be like... *drool*

I heard it was REAL good man. Don't get it anywhere else except from Japan. Imported to other countries I heard it wasn't real or not as good.
