You never forget your first visit to Swenson's Drive-In, pride of Akron, Ohio, one of the finest little restaurant chains in the country that most Americans haven't heard of.

A toothpick sporting a stuffed green olive ties the whole thing together, and believe me when I tell you that this is one of the more memorable fast food burgers you'll ever try. It is also one of the ugliest.

Swenson's goes all the ...

1. PMS cramps feel like you’re scraping the insides out of a pumpkin at Halloween.
