Burger 'science' being used to predict presidential election

Forget political polling, the chefs over at D.C.'s BLT Steak have figured out another way to call the presidential election early -- using your belly. They've added a Paul Ryan burger to their political burger board and now eaters can support the Republican ticket by ordering either a Romney or Ryan burger, or support the Democratic ticket by ordering an Obama or Biden burger. Each burger had an ingredient that screams that candidate -- Utah-style pastrami stack on Mitt Romney's, pineapples on President Obama's and sloppy joe on Vice President Biden's. The Ryan burger comes with Wisconsin cheddar cheese, bacon, grilled apples and beer battered onion rings (and enough calories to make the veep candidate and fitness fanatic scream). The contest concludes Oct. 2.
