The Curder Burger started as a social media April Fools stunt, but hundreds of people signed an online petition to make it real. Now for one day you can buy a burger with a giant fried cheese curd.

NOEL KING, HOST:

A fried cheese curd is just a big hunk of fried cheese. The CurderBurger started as a social media April Fool's joke, but people were actually very into it. Hundreds of them signed an online petition to make it a reality. I guess dreams do come true - in Wisconsin anyway. It's MORNING EDITION.
