The whopper jr was actually made by accident. When the first Burger King opened in Puerto Rico in 1963, they had no bread molding trays for the whoppers. The manager, Luis Arenas Perez, found smaller ones nearby and sold a smaller version of the sandwich. He is in the BK hall of fame for his creation

The other is a sort of narrow "shotgun" style location that is known to be slow and grossly understaffed even well before the pandemic. I kinda wonder if BK corporate keeps their franchises on a looser leash than say McDonald's or Wendy's hence the vast difference.

The Whopper is the best nationwide fast food sandwich in my world, though I cannot claim to have tried them all. However, it's only truly great if you add cheese. A fond memory is the long interval in the early 1990s when they offered a $.99US Whopper as a loss leader. I cashed in on that many, many times. That they got the model for the Whopper from Whataburger is a shocking revelation. Is this the same Whataburger that is popular to this day in New Mexico? With green chiles, that's a great, great sandwich. But I think you have to travel to New Mexico to get it. That's a 1000 mile trip for me, but I might make it soon now that I am reminded.

Back when I was younger and could eat 5000 calories a day without gaining weight, I used to order a Double Whopper +cheese, +bacon, no onions, heavy all, off the broiler, cut in half. After making that monstrosity, they wrap it up and cut it in half and wrap it again. That way you could eat a half at a time and manage to not end up with a big mess.

I never really cared for the Big Mac. When going to McDonald's I'd usually prefer the Quarter Pounder with cheese. But I do love the Whopper, and had a lot of them back when they were going for $1.00 back in the 90s. I never knew that we had WhatABurger to thank for inspiring the Whopper. Personally, I think the real secret of the Whopper isn't the flame-broiled burger, but the fact that they use both mayo and ketchup on it. Which is easy to emulate when making burgers at home, and home taste tests have proven it to me.

The value is honestly great and I used to get em all the time in HS and College. Just get it with some fries because they taste kind of off if you eat a lot of them entirely on their own.

So...I'll ask again: Any plans to do a list of unique burgers across the US, like you did for pizza, hot dogs, and barbecue? Might be interesting to talk about the Juicy Lucy from my home state or even the various levels of Bypass from the Heart Attack Grill.

There's a family owned fast food place in town called Tommy burger . The grilled cheese burger they sell is equal in size and weight to a big mac & a whopper combined for 1/2 the price and tastes twice as good ,,,

Same here. Ironic since they are “flame broiled.” I think BK secretly discovered cold fusion to Cook their burgers cheaply but won’t tell their world their scientific breakthrough 😉

The whole coupon/deals/app specials thing really makes BK seem like a discount, second rate place. I've also had the app malfunction and charge me multiple times for an order that never got transferred to the restaurant and left me with no recourse, so unless it's someone else going to BK at work, I'm done with them unless some drastic changes happen!

weird I’ve gone to BK more that I have the app. Just order like normal, and pick up. Don’t really care about the points though.

@@DC-wg1zy No, it sucks because if you don't keep BK coupons in your wallet or want to order and pay online you end up having to pay more than double in some instances. Plus the place feels like a discount, low rent, knock off McDonald's.

The Whopper, because I don't care for cheese on a beef patty. I also like the "have it your way" notion, because onions do bad things to my tummy, so I can leave them off the burger

I have kind of a reverse problem. I enjoy Whoppers but like cheese on it, but half the time I forget to order it that way since I'm so used to burgers coming that way. I'll learn eventually...

Food hack: You can get a Whopper at McD's by ordering a Quarter Pounder and asking that they add the mayo, lettuce, and tomato. Most places will do it if they the ingredients. Not quite a Whopper but it gets by.

This vid missed the biggest controversy of all: Why did they stop flame-broiling their burgers? The current soggy, warm, processed, offal discs are not the same as the original flame broiled beef patties that actually tasted great and had some char.

Honestly, the Whopper and the Big Mac are both awesome budget burgers to enjoy when you're too poor to buy anything of value. It's hard for me to pick, but I do believe the Whopper quality is a notch above the Big Mac... obviously. 🍔🍟
