Available for a limited time, the new Gravy Burger consists of a sesame seed burger bun slathered with [Gravynaise](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pizza-gravy), and topped with an Original Recipe or Zinger Fillet, a slice of cheese, and a crispy hash brown that serves as a type of bowl for the generous portion of gravy poured on top. The limited-edition menu item first made an appearance in the U.K. where it is now a Christmastime staple. The new Gravy Burger is now making an appearance in New Zealand because the country celebrates a sort of Christmas in July or Midwinter Christmas since December 25th actually falls in the middle of their own summer.
