Binging with Babish, a popular YouTube show, recreates the infamous "Paunch Burger" from the TV series Parks and Recreation. The Paunch Burger is a massive burger consisting of three beef patties, onion rings, cheese, and chili, all sandwiched between a bun and topped with a fried egg. The show's host, Babish, makes the burger from scratch, including the chili, cheese sauce, onion rings, and burger patties. After assembling the burger, he takes a bite and describes the flavors and textures. Despite the burger's enormous calorie count (estimated at 2,400 calories), Babish enjoys it and praises the combination of flavors. The episode is sponsored by Thrive Market, an online health food store, and Babish uses some of their ingredients to make a healthier salad dressing to offset the damage done by the burger.
