BURGER KING IS BREAKING the mold in its new advertising campaign.

The burger chain is portraying its Whopper covered in mold in print and TV ads running in Europe and the U.S. The message: Burger King is removing artificial preservatives from its signature burger.

The restaurant, based in Miami, Florida, says it has removed artificial preservatives from the Whopper in several European countries — including France, Sweden and Spain — and around 400 of its 7,346 U.S. restaurants. It plans to remove preservatives from Whoppers served in all of its restaurants this year.

The Whopper is topped with onions, lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise and pickles, all of which will contain no artificial preservatives.

Burger King says it has also removed artificial colors and flavors from all of its sandwiches and and sides in some European markets and the U.S.

McDonald's announced in 2018 that it was removing artificial colors, flavors and preservatives from seven of its burgers.

This is dumber than KFC ditching their potato wedges and making a new double down, because at least they're giving us the fries Taco Bell makes. The Luther Burger style chicken sandwich (with glazed donuts) is still horrid, but not as appetite killing as this.

Burger King is too fucking expensive in my state. Sorry but I'm not gonna pay 14 dollars for a combo of a speciality whopper when I have a local franchise diner that has a similar burger (in size and style) plus combo for like, 8 to 9 bucks.

It's still cheaper than McDonald's, which is why you'll see me occasionally just get nuggies, a burger, and fries from there.

Does anyone remember back in the 1990s and early 2000s Burger King had some of the coolest happy meal toys?

I had three of the original run Pokemon toys that were triple controversial. First because it was Pokemon which was hugely controversial just by existing at the time, second for running out of supply due to somehow not anticipating the massive demand, and third because that literal baby died by asphyxiating on the Pokeball containers because the dumb parents didn't ask for the 3 and under toddler toys you're supposed to ask for.

The Real Reason Restaurants Are Running Out Of Ketchup

If you don't get enough ketchup packets next time you hit the fast food drive-thru - or if you get none at all - don't blame the employee at the window.

Thanks, but - I'm in Russia.
They replaced that inedible garlic one first.
And, of course, KFC and whichever chains besides use Heintz dipping sauces, still do.

Never saw a bagged ketchup like this ^^'
 
I’ve had the Garlic & Bacon King recently and I’m a fan of it, the fried garlic chips (or whatever they’re called) are nice change when most burgers use onions for their choice of fried edible allium bulbs.

Seeing as how it appears to be a limited-run item I may have to learn how to make hose garlic chips at home or find a store-bought brand.
 
Got some lunch a couple days ago from there, and it's now depressing it's the cheapest fast food place out there now and still had a slightly better cheapo burger than McDickholes. Because let me tell you, the burger was pretty damn good when you count the pricing.

I really wish that others kept to BK's low energy low effort example, because fast food is not artisanal shit.
