Some days in this business, you work tirelessly chasing down tough breaking news stories.
And other days, you get assigned to eat a disgustingly decadent hamburger and film it for the world to see.
Toronto burger restaurant The Works is garnering international attention for a new hamburger creation they’ve dubbed the “Reese PBC.”
The concept is simple: take a hamburger, stuff it with Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, top it with bacon, deep fried onions, and yes – more Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

The burger has caught the eye of several international media outlets like USA Today, MSNBC and even Howard Stern. Comedian Seth Myers even gave a shout out to the Reese PBC on his show earlier this week.
Because this is a Toronto concoction, Global News decided to investigate the new burger phenomenon.

I was that guinea pig.
So it was I that was sent down to The Works armed with my appetite, my sense of adventure, and a cardiac surgeon in case I needed a post-burger gastric bypass.
How did it go? Find out in the video above.
