Is this the most disgusting hamburger you have ever seen? Quite possibly.
An image of an overcooked burger has been sent around the Internet after it was served up in a school's canteen to a pupil in Pennsylvania, USA.
The piece of meat (and I use the term lightly) was photographed and shared on Facebook group DuBoisLive and has since attracted nearly 400 comments from people questioning whether it is safe for human consumption or not.

Superintendent Dr. Luke Lansberry of DuBois Area School District said the burger was safe to eat, but admitted that it looked unappealing because it had been overcooked.
He added that 300 burgers had been served that day, but the district had only had one complaint.
"Food service workers cooked the hamburgers at 170 degrees, when typically they are only required to cook at 155 degrees," Lansberry told WAJC TV.

Facebook users on the other hand disagree entirely.
