And the winner is… The Whopper:
…”The Whopper” is definitely a burger with attitude. larger in width then the Big Mac the whopper is composed of: 1/4 pound beef patty, Mayonnaise, lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup, sliced onion on a sesame seed bun. The whopper unlike its counterpart the Big Mac is Flame Grilled and has optional ingredients such as: bacon, American cheese or mustard. It is also Burger king policy that the customer can omit any ingredient they do not want in their whopper thus giving them greater choice in the creation of their sandwich. The whopper packs a whopper of calories, 760 to be exact.
So which one of these sandwiches is better? It was a hard choice for me, up until the first bite that is. Hands down I must say that Burger king is the king of burgers with their whopper for the following reasons: While the Big Mac does hold its own the flame grilled taste of the whopper gives it a “just off the BBQ” flavor that is to die for. The Big Mac comes in a small personalized box which in my view actually hurts the burger in that it’s a pain to get an initial grip on the sandwich without it falling apart. This is in contrast to the whopper which comes in a classic burger wrapper that can be spread out on the table for easy access. But finally the thing that tipped the scale for me was the “have it your way” policy of Burger king. In this grand liberty driven nation of ours I feel its important that we have the freedom to pick our own ingredients and choose our individual burgers destiny. So I dare say that the whopper is the superior burger as it calls to the patriotic libertarian spirit of all Americans.
