The description for the new Pride Whopper initially sounds like any other Whopper burger: a quarter-pound seasoned, flame-grilled beef patty topped with sliced tomatoes, crisp lettuce, ketchup, creamy mayonnaise, sliced pickles, and sliced white onions. However, what sets this burger apart is that each Pride Whopper features two of the same-side buns – either two bun tops or two bun bottoms. As the brand explains, this represents “equal love and equal rights.” While the new burger has seen mixed reactions from consumers, it's clear that big brands like Burger King want to convey their support for the LGBTQ+ community during Pride Month.
