Burger King Whopper

0 Shares

The copycat Burger King Whopper may taste even better than the Whopper you get at your local Burger King.

The first Burger King opened in 1954 in Miami, Florida. By 2017, there were 50 company-owned Burger Kings and 16,717 franchised Burger Kings worldwide – a story of remarkable growth. For many people, their favorite Burger King menu item is a flame-broiled burger called the Whopper.

The basic Whopper consists of just eight simple ingredients, but, as Burger King’s famous slogan implies, you can “have it your way” (since changed to “be your way”) with different combinations and additions such as American cheese, bacon, mustard, guacamole or jalapeño peppers. If “your way” is vegetarian, they will even make you a veggie Whopper.

Have it “Your Way,” Wherever You Are

In 2009, Burger King introduced the Whopper Bar, described by the company as a more “playful” variation on the standard Burger King. A Whopper Bar features a semi-circular metal countertop around an open kitchen.

Customers can sit on a barstool and enjoy watching their food being prepared. Whopper Bars provide many different Whopper toppings for your basic Whopper Burger – bacon, guacamole, crispy onions, BBQ sauce, and much more.

Whopper Bars are found in malls, airports, casinos, and other similar areas. Enjoying a Whopper at a Whopper Bar will help keep down your frustration when your plane is delayed.
