I wouldn't go so far as to call Burger Special memorable, or even high
energy for that matter.  The "loosy goosy" line in the chorus rates WAY
high on the cheese-factor for me.  In fact, the only memorable part is
the "special sauuuuuce..." part at the end.

Not many good songs out there about food.  They all tend to be very
corny: Two Triple Cheese Side Order of Fries, Eat It, etc.  Somehow,
Southern Culture on the Skids manages to pull off a few tunes about food,
but they're not to be taken seriously.
