Just in case your thought that Beyonce Knowles couldn't get any more ingrained into pop culture, here comes the Beyonce Sandwich.

The [Beyonce sandwich recipe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whopper-contest) begins with two pieces of Texas toast bread to celebrate her birth place. Then, we're told to add a three strips of bacon to comemmerate the three members of Beyonce's old pop troupe, Destiny's Child. Moving on from there, next up is bleu cheese crumbles to salute a little "Blue Ivy." To make things a little more personal, the next ingredient is Beyonce's supposed favorite food (a slab of fried chicken). Next is a dash of [hot sauce](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ghost-pepper-chicken-sandwich-1) in honor of her "Heat" fragrance line. Finally, all that's left is to put an [onion ring](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crispy-onion-whopper) on it.

I would recommend a can of pop with the Beyonce sandwich to celebrate her performance genre.
