As you might have guessed from the name, the new Hershey's Chocolate Burger is a beef burger with a chocolaty twist. The new dish starts with a sweet chocolate bun made with real Hershey's chocolate. The bun is then topped with one of Burger King's classic flame-grilled beef patties, American cheese, [crispy-fried onions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crispy-onion-whopper), bacon, and Hershey's Premium Chocolate Sauce. The result is a sweet and savory combination that you're unlikely to find anywhere else. Alongside the new Hershey's Chocolate Burger, [Burger King Thailand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hashtag-burger) has rolled out an entire Chocolate King menu, which includes items like the Hershey's Whopper Jr., Hershey's Choco Fries, Hershey's Choco Pie, and more.
