Did A&W Mislabeled Their Burgers?

On our drive back to Toronto, we stopped for gas and lunch and ordered burgers at A&W.

Hubby ordered a Mama burger while I ordered a Grandma burger(there was no photo of the Grandma burger on their menu board).

I was surprised when I saw the Grandma burger...it had two patties and generous creme (they even give you horse radish sauce), no veggies



While the Mama burger only had 1 patty and lettuce and tomato



When I looked at A& W's website I found out that the Grandma burger had almost double the calories of the Mama burger.

Mama Burger® with Cheese (450 calories)
Grandma™ Prime Rib Burger - Double (800 calories)

Funny, but do they want Grandma to die sooner??? Isnt't it that when you order a childs meal it should be smaller and lesser calories?

Then why will they label Grandma burger to a burger with 2 patties?
