whopper
“Get ready for the arrival of a new era of big burgers,” the slogan promises, but does it deliver?
Prayers of temple monks imbue this Spicy Yakuyoke Whopper with all the protection you’ll need for the New Year.
Our burger expert becomes a fan of veggie patties, and nobody is more shocked about it than him.
The best thing about Burger King’s home delivery? You get to decide how much avocado is too much avocado.
In Japan, Burger King doesn’t just give us the Whopper recipe, it gives us the ingredients to make it too!
We continue our tradition of pushing the limits of our local Burger King staff’s kindness by ordering a double Whopper topped with around 80 bucks worth of pickles.
For a country known for its restaurants serving relatively small portions of foods, Japan sure seems to love all-you-can-eat campaigns (although occasionally, things don’t go quite as planned at these events). Well, if you love meat and lots of it, we have good news for you. Burger King Japan’s popular all-you-can eat Whooper campaign is coming back again this year, so get ready to have your fill of big, juicy hamburgers!!
Burger King Japan has just announced the “60th Anniversary ‘B’iKing Battle,” inviting anyone with the stomach and speed for eating seven Whoppers in half an hour to apply. Sounds pretty sweet, right? Maybe…we have a feeling the grand prize is the last thing participants will want to receive after polishing off two-days’ worth of calories.
Burger King is currently celebrating their 5th year in Japan. But in an already saturated fast food market the famous American chain is a little late to the game.
So, in an effort to truly stand out from the crowd, Burger King Japan has designed fast food’s first black hamburger. Dubbed the Kuro Burger (lit. Black Burger), it will go on sale for a limited time starting 28 September.
