While many restaurants have made efforts to bolster their vegetarian and vegan offerings, Burger King appears to be sticking to its carnivore roots by brining back the Pepperoni Bacon Whopper across Canada. While not the lightest item on the menu, the hearty burger is perfect for the meat-eater in your family.
The Pepperoni Bacon Whopper is similar to the original Burger King Whopper in that it features a quarter-pound, flame-grilled beef patty topped with sliced tomatoes, lettuce, onion, pickles, two slices of cheese, mayo and ketchup on a soft sesame seed bun. The main difference is that the new burger also features savory bacon strips and eight slices of lightly smoky pepperoni for an extra-meaty twist.
