You don't have Carl's Jr. up there, do you?

The commercial doesn't entice me for the woman, it entices me because it reminds me that I haven't had a glorious, drippy, moist, yummy, greasy amazing Carl's Jr. Superstar in 2 freaking years!!!

I hate this city and their complete lack of Carl's Jr. superstars...

And it was DELICIOUS. As always.

As is Padma..

I don't always choose to eat hamburgers . . .

but when I do, I prefer CJ Superstars with cheese.
