It's been over a year since Shake Shack opened its doors to Atlanta and the lines have not ceased. Drive past the Buckhead Atlanta complex on any given night -- tables are filled with people and lines are consistently out the door. Droves of burger lovers dine here and keep coming back.

Atlanta Eats investigates why you can't stop eating Shake Shack burgers and mountains of cheese fries.
