KISSIMMEE -- How far would you go to get a hamburger?

Ask Jay Barr of Cape Coral, and he'll tell you he flies roughly 150 miles from his home to pick up a box -- or, more accurately, a 24-burger "steamer pack" -- at the nearest Krystal fast-food restaurant.

Barr, 52, said he has been making the hour-long food flight to Kissimmee Airport for 10 years. In the past three years, he has made about 30 trips.

At the restaurant Saturday, the fast-food company unveiled a hamburger box and drink cup with Barr's face and an airplane printed on them. Hundreds of thousands of the boxes will hit about 400 restaurants in the Southeast.
