Burger King Wants to Pimp Your Whopper
The Whopper turned 51 this year and Burger King plans to celebrate by opening a string of bars later in the year. Instead of serving alcohol, they're going to get you drunk on a highly-potent combination of flame-broiled beef and choice.
"Customers will be treated to a smorgasbord of Whopper options" and "will also feature a build-your-own option for customers hoping to customize their burger."
Personally, I love this concept. Limited selection with hyper-customization. It would be like GM opening a Hummer-only dealership. They should take it one step further and just serve Pepsi--not only for the comedic value, but to keep me from going there altogether.
Little known fact: I've never eaten a Whopper.

I've never eaten a whopper either. Or a BigMac.

It looks a lot like a Fuddruckers bar to me. They probably won't have cool options like an ostrich or buffalo Whopper, though.

My wife is still very POed about their deep sixing the Angus Burger. Now she doesn't care about going there. I've always favored Carl's Super Star (I cannot resist anything sloppy and juicy in my mouth) and now she is ecstatic over their Teriyaki Burger.
Better duck, King; there's a new burger slinger in town.
A Whopper is like an "emergency burger", when nothing else except boring (i.e., "classic") is available. Whataburger sucks.

As long as I don't have to go off my Beer and Burgers diet, I'm happy. No sodas though as there is no minimum daily requirement for refined sugar.

Well, you know what they say: Go Elf Yourself Whopper Virgin!
