“The origin of the new Grilled Cheese Bacon Burgers is actually kind of a funny story,” said Brad Haley, executive vice president of marketing at CKE Restaurants. “We were initially working on menu items we could offer for our vegetarian customers and made a really good grilled cheese sandwich. But, being Carl’s Jr., a chain known for its decadent burgers, someone suggested that we try it with a charbroiled burger patty and bacon for our carnivorous customers and the Grilled Cheese Bacon Burgers were born. With four slices of melted American and Swiss cheeses on grilled sourdough bread, it really delivers on the idea of a grilled cheese sandwich combined with a bacon cheeseburger. It’s delicious … and we’ll still make a really good grilled cheese sandwich for our vegetarian customers if they want one.”
The Grilled Cheese Bacon Burgers are available at Carl’s Jr. as a single burger, double burger or Six Dollar Burger™ version, and sell for $2.49, $3.49 and $4.49, respectively. Prices may vary.
The new burger will be promoted through clever ads created by Los Angeles-based advertising agency Mendelsohn|Zien, the firm behind many iconic ads for Carl’s Jr. and sister chain Hardee’s®.

Well Luck Co., Inc., is recalling the instant noodle products because they do not meet product inspection or exemption requirements for poultry, beef, and pork. The foreign inspection system of the country where the beef, poultry, and pork ingredients originated, China, has not been deemed to be equivalent as required by federal regulations.
The problem was discovered after FSIS identified the products in the marketplace. The instant noodle products were distributed to retail establishments nationwide. FSIS has received no reports of illness as a result of consuming these products.
