he image: Denny's, the largely nutrition-indifferent chain restaurant that brought you the Fried Cheese Melt, has introduced a new novelty sandwich "monstrosity." The Mac 'n Cheese Big Daddy Patty Melt features a "hand-pressed beef patty topped with our new creamy Mac 'n Cheese, melted cheddar cheese and zesty frisco sauce on grilled potato bread."
