petersen's mint chocolate chip & the frankencheezie

Petersen's in Oak Park, IL has been serving up 32% butterfat ice cream since 1919, god bless 'em.

Also on the menu: The Frankencheezie, a "charbroiled quarter pound frankfurter stuffed with cheese and wrapped in bacon and served on a butter toasted bun with all the trimmings."

Only in Chicago, folks, can you buy this kind of cardiovascular disease for lunch.

(I stuck with the grilled cheese -- substituting muenster for american -- because I prefer my death on toast to take me just a little bit more slowly, thank you.)
