be our cousin contest
When we opened our 1st restaurant, a customer named our burger "Cousin Oliver" -- a tribute to the chubby, little weirdo on the Brady Bunch. He had no friends. He was shy, awkward, and out of place. But, he soon became a beloved part of the family. Now, we're opening another restaurant and just like little Oliver, we have no friends, we're weird looking and nobody knows why we're here. So, we need someone to hold us when we're scared, caress us when we're hurt, and love us like family even though we aren't related.

P.S. Don't worry, the real "Cousin Oliver" (a.k.a. child-star, Robbie Rist) is ok with us using his likeness for a lean, house-ground, hand-packed burger. See the email he sent us.

our new cousin

We interviewed Carl to learn more about our champ (scroll down):
b.good contest winner Carl Ehrlich
NAME: Carl Ehrlich
NICKNAME (IF ANY): "Big Earl", "Gary Bertier", "Garl", "Shrek"
HOMETOWN: Bethesda, MD
PROFESSION: Male model, Ultimate fighter, Bounty Hunter, Dementor

BESIDES EATING HOUSE-GROUND, HAND-PACKED, LEAN BURGERS, WHAT ARE YOUR INTERESTS OR HOBBIES? Dungeons and Dragons. That and Harry Potter. But definitely Dungeons and Dragons first.

WHAT QUALITIES SEPARATED YOU FROM THE ALL THOSE OTHER B.GOOD CUSTOMERS WHO WANTED TO BE OUR COUSIN? Besides my enormous head, I would probably say my passion for burgers and my amazing sense of humor which girls find irresistable. Kind of.

HOW MANY "COUSIN OLIVER" BURGERS DO YOU PREDICT YOU'LL CONSUMER OVER THE COURSE OF YOUR LIFE? I would say "as many as humanly possible," but I don't want to limit myself. I think a more exact answer would probably be "as many as B Good can make." Seriously though, I will easily break a thousand before I leave school. Guaranteed.

MOST CHAMPIONS HAVE A MOTTO BY WHICH THEY LIVE THEIR LIVES. WHAT'S YOURS? "Impossible is nothing." Some people told me that it would be impossible to single handedly put B Good out of business, but I'm going to try me best to prove those people wrong.

Carl's Entry
Unfortunately since I am applying for free burgers for life with Harvard students by writing an essay, I seem to be very outmatched. But the elequence with which someone writes can not describe their passion for burgers and hopefully by reading my "Top 8 Reasons to Make Me Your Cousin," you will be persuaded. 8. I am unattractive... No one wants a hot cousin. 7. My brother is a body-builder and my whole family are nutrition nuts so I can definitely appreciate having good tasting, healthy food near me. As I child I was forced to wear a shock collar and whenever I opened the cookie jar I received a good 20 seconds of horrendous pain. 6. I play football- this isn't really a good reason to make me your cousin but every single football player writes it, so I'm just trying to fit in 5. I love Diet Coke- Seeming as you "cousin" only gets free burgers you will still be making a profit on my purchase of a large soft drink and baked fries. 4. Of all your applicants, I bear the closest resemblence to "Cousin Oliver." 3. My blatant lack of a love life will make me a better cousin. Don't you worry about me missing any meals because of me going on a date or studying with some girl. They hate me. I love Burgers. Period. 2. Burgers are a welcome alternative to what I usually do for late night food(Chewing on my fingers or chasing squirrels with a home made trident). 1. I love food- plain and simple. My parents were more than happy to fork over the 40K just to get me out of the house. As a child I was always encouraged to sleep at my friends house just so I would eat their food instead. By giving me free burgers for life you will be saving me from myself because I can only donate blood once every six weeks and I have no other source of income. Thanks cous
