Fast Food Fare #1: Burger King's Jack O' Lantern Whopper
I finally had the chance to pick up the Jack O' Lantern Whopper from Burger King. This is basically a Whopper with bacon and cheese, but served on what they described as a "naturally dyed" orange bun with sesame seeds as black as my soul!
First thing. As orange as it looks in the picture, it's even MORE orange in real life! Almost shocking. Now, and maybe sadly, this is not a Pumpkin Spice Whopper. As I already stated, it's a Whopper with cheese and bacon. There is no discernible flavor to the bun.
My interest in this Whopper comes from past Halloween Whoppers. Several years ago, Burger King had a Whopper with a bun that was dyed pitch black, and flavored with A1 Steak Sauce. It went viral, though, not because of its flavor, but because the dye in the bun turned people's p**p a hysterical neon green that lasted for days.
I'm curious (and secretly hoping) to see what color I'll be producing with this orange bun. I'll keep you all posted on any developments! πππΌ
