Chef Jason Triail of The Habit Burger Grill Given His Biggest Challenge Yet... By a Seven-Year-Old!

IRVINE, Calif., April 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chef Jason Triail of The Habit Burger Grill faced an unexpected challenge of epic proportions—courtesy of a seven-year-old enthusiast! When young Emmett dared Chef Jason to recreate a gargantuan, life-size gummy Charburger, little did he know what delightful chaos he was about to unleash.

At The Habit Burger Grill, mini gummy burgers have long been a cherished treat for kids, a sweet surprise in every kid's meal and even being included in the recent limited-time-offer, the $6* Grown-Up Meal.

In a video message, Emmett challenged Chef Jason: "If you can make a Grown-Up Meal, can you make a grown-up gummy burger?" Channeling his inner Willy Wonka, Chef Jason eagerly embraced the challenge, determined to bring Emmett's imaginative concept to life. "Did this kid just challenge me?" Chef Jason remarked with a grin. "You know what? We're going to make a GIANT gummy burger."

The journey to bring Emmett's imaginative vision to life began with Chef Jason meticulously selecting an assortment of gummy flavors—cola, strawberry, apple, and banana—as well as food coloring, bowls for shaping, and other tools, to construct a two-pound, life-size masterpiece. With painstaking detail, he replicated the grill marks on the brand’s signature "chargrilled" patty and even fashioned a tomato slice complete with gummy "seeds."

Chef Jason's attention to detail shows through in the final product. This wasn't going to be just a bunch of colorful gummies stacked together. The ingredients needed to be authentic, real, and fresh, mirroring the standards upheld at The Habit.

The grand finale came when Emmett and his brothers were invited to Chef Jason's kitchen for the unveiling of the colossal creation. Their eyes widened in amazement as they beheld the remarkably realistic gummy burger. "Woah!" they exclaimed in unison, marveling at the attention to detail. "The sesame seeds look so realistic!" Emmett gasped.

"Let me tell ya, whipping up that giant gummy burger was a blast," said Chef Jason. "When a kid throws down a challenge, I'm all in. Seeing Emmett's face light up? That's what it's all about."

Now proudly displayed in Chef Jason's test kitchen in Irvine, California, the towering giant gummy burger serves as a tribute to The Habit Burger's $6* Grown-Up Meal. Under the banner of "Eat Like Adults, Pay Like Kids," the brand invites adults to indulge in a kids' meal—sized just right for grown-up appetites—without worrying about the cost. In a world of escalating prices, this limited-time offer, available at select locations, offers grown-ups a break from the burdens of "adulting," ensuring that every meal is a joyful experience, no matter your age.
