Burger King New Zealand recently revealed a new carnivore-friendly menu called the 'Meatatarian Range.' Not only does the new menu include three [extra-meaty burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bbq-brisket-steakburger), but it also includes a dessert topped with savory bacon strips.

The new Meatatarian Range from Burger King New Zealand is a limited-edition menu that consists of three gargantuan burgers: the Half Meaty, the Full Meaty and the Chicken Bacon Meaty. The Half Meaty includes just a chicken and beef patty, while the Full Meaty includes two beef patties and a single chicken patty. Finally the Chicken Bacon Meaty includes two chicken patties and several strips of bacon. If the multi-patty burgers weren't enough, the new menu also includes a Bacon Sundae made with soft serve ice cream, caramel sauce and strips of bacon.

The new Meatatarian Range demonstrates that while consumers are looking for more nutritious options at fast food restaurants, the demand for outrageously unhealthy dishes has not disappeared.
