The man who created the Hamdog is now selling his US patent; CNBC, 9/28/16

Matt Clinch, CNBC; The man who created the Hamdog is now selling his US patent:
"Following a week of intense media attention, the man who created a new food that merges a hot dog and a hamburger has decided to auction off his intellectual property rights.
The Hamdog was invented in 2004 by Mark Murray, who lives in Perth, Australia. He successfully applied for patents in the U.S., but after his story went viral last week, has decided to "pass it onto an entity that has the criteria required to roll it out in America.""
