Miami must be an awesome place, because [Burger King](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweet-and-ripped-side) 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/South-Seas-Distilleries). Unless, perhaps, you order the whopper without a bun. According to Gawker, now Americans “can get fat and drunk at the same time.”
