I usually get the single. I tried the turbo once and couldn't come near finishing it.

Let me get that straight... Fillings aside, the "two slices of bread" component in a normal sandwich is replaced with two grilled cheese sandwiches? I.e. each slice of bread replaced with a grilled cheese sandwich? A meal above the fillings, and a meal below them... Is that it??

Yes, that's correct. Two complete grilled cheese sandwiches instead of a bun.
As you might expect, it's a bit filling; particularly with a side of sweet potato fries.

Wow... That's amazing. And folks over here thought the moon landing was your finest hour...

EDIT: I love that the fries are made from sweet potato rather than regular potato. Just goes to show that a meal like this can still be healthy and lower in calories...

Yes, the Turbo Twin Cam is a magnificent achievement, but even it pales in comparison to the invention, and subsequent marketing, of the Pet Rock.

I thought about that, but I wasn't sure he could handle it.

Here, you get "Burger and chips with peas or baked beans"... Over there, you get something with a "Twin Cam" or "Turbo Twin Cam"... It's easy to see why our youth culture is so receptive to the USA...

Our culture was a bit different at some point.

Don't think there was a cruisin' kustom kar scene over there to form an association between cars and food.

Pretty much.

And it covers three meals. Breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Do you have a beer with it?

Red beer maybe?

I dunno.

But I got a complaint.

I was OK when bacon moved in on my lunch or evening meal, the good old American cheeseburger. After all, bacon, right?

So now eggs are getting in on the game.

Where will it all end?

Except he must call 999 or 112 - the former is the traditional emergency number in the UK, I believe, while 112 is what's used all over Europe. If you use a cell phone, though, I think both 911 and 112 will work more or less anywhere in the world.

E.g. in South Africa you must call 10111 to get to the police, but 112 works from cell phones.
