Fast-Food Melted Cheese Burgers

Burger King Debuted the 'Whopper Melts' Series of Meals

— March 9, 2022 — Lifestyle
Burger King has launched a new set of specialty 'Whopper' burgers named the 'Whopper Melts' series. There are three items in this series: the 'Whopper Melt,' the 'Spicy Whopper Melt,' and the 'Bacon Whopper Melt.' The Whopper Melt features two 'Whopper Jr.' patties, caramelized onions, and 'Stacker Sauce' complete with melted cheese and placed between two slices of toasted bread.

These three burgers include toasted bread instead of a traditional bun to deliver a more authentic melted sandwich experience. The spicy variation includes most of the same ingredients as the regular melt, but with the addition of jalapenos and a spicy sauce. Lastly, the bacon version is the same as the Whopper Melt, however, it also includes two strips of crispy bacon.
