No you pervs! Not that kind of Sarah sandwich hehe

This kind...

ANCHORAGE, Alaska-- A local restaurant is incorporating politics into its menu.

Lion's Den restaurant in Midtown Anchorage has created its own specialty: the McPalin Grilled Pig Sandwich.

Lion's Den owner Dale Keefe says he normally keeps politics out of work conversation, but when he was making sandwiches with his crew last week, the big top news story was Barack Obama's comment, "You know, you can put lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig."

Obama's comment began Keefe's political food creation.

"I just kept thinking about that news story when I was making sandwiches and I just kind of had an epiphany," Keefe said.

The McPalin sandwich has grilled pork tenderloin on it, with caramelized apples, red onions, melted cheddar cheese, and crisp bacon.

Most food creators add some type of garnish such as parsley or fruit to top off their dish, but Keefe decided to do something a little more personal.

The sandwich is served with a side of lipstick and fries.

The McPalin grilled pig sandwich runs for about $13, and has been selling out.

Doesn't sound very kosher to me.

fair and balanced.

Come and get your Obama Burger?

Yes I Can! (Eat)

First there was the Obama girl. Then the Obama first bump. Now, here’s the latest in the Obama pop culture phenomenon: The “Obama Burger.”

Chicago’s Juicy Wine Co. debuted the burger Tuesday night, but it’s not simply a way to boost foot traffic; there apparently was a lot of thought put into the burger’s creation.

The idea came from owner Rodney Alex and, when we chatted with Juicy Wine Co. managing partner Wilbur Keith, he explained the symbolism behind each ingredient:

Marble rye bread: “It represents the biraciality of Barack.”

Wisconsin cheddar cheese: “It represents his Americanism and patriotism.”

The Kobe beef: “It’s all-American pure bred, and Obama is ultimately pure bred.”

Michelle’s first baked beans: “A tribute to Michelle Obama.”

Caramelized onions: “We’re all one melting pot.”

The restaurant/lounge also slashes the prices of American wines by half during Obama Burger days (Tuesdays), “to show we’re in celebration of America.” (Oh, and just to sell the point to death, the burgers are cooked on an American made Weber grill).

So far, Obama hasn’t stopped into Juicy Wine Co., although his Chicago gym is right around the corner, so there’s still hope. Keith says there haven’t been any protests from hungry McCain patrons…yet.

better than naming a street after him november 5 as his also ran cupie prize.

Woody, you missed a real softball here. I expected to hear about an "Obama Burger" as a bun with nothing in it.

Something like the McCain sandwich: They bring you anything because you forgot what you ordered anyway!

I am sorry but do you see any reference to the sandwich shop owners politics?
