Miami must be an awesome place, because Burger King just opened their new Whopper bar there. The Burger King bar will be open all day, every day. If you aren’t eating a burger you can be drinking, and if you aren’t drinking you should be eating a whopper.
The Burger King bar is probably not part of the South Beach Diet. Unless, perhaps, you order the whopper without a bun. According to Gawker, now Americans "can get fat and drunk at the same time."
