Burger King Japan’s Ugly Cheese Beef Burger says goodbye to pretty eating
It's easy to look back at the past few years and see Burger King Japan's slew of Tokyo Teriyaki Tower Super One Pound Beef Burgers, monstrous Ugly Burger series, and all-you-can-eat one pound burger challenges and think of it as a carnivore's paradise, but they've recently turned out some vegetarian-friendly releases as well.
With some sustainable beef goals and accommodation of different diets in mind, Burger King recently released a Plant-Based Whopper that has become a mainstay of the menu.
Now Burger King Japan has announced that they're giving their Plant-Based Whopper a bunless twist with the release of the 100% plant-based Version 2 Whopper.
The Version 2 Whopper removes buns from the equation for not only a reduction in carbs, but what Burger King says is a more direct appreciation of the taste of 100% vegetable v2 patty grilled over an open flame. The vegetable and soybean patty is sandwiched between fresh lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles with ketchup and mustard.
Burger King's Version 2 Whopper will be available for a limited time from August 6th to September 2nd at locations across Japan, priced at 690 yen a la carte and 990 yen in a set.
