Title: Burger King launches a burger for six to share
Post by: paulham on May 22, 2008, 10:02:37 pm: [Burger King is rolling out what it claims to be the first burger made for sharing across its three biggest European territories, in an attempt to take on the pizza market.

The 6 Pack, which costs £4.49 on its own or £5.69 as part of a meal, comprises one big Aberdeen Angus patty inside six rolls, stuck together to allow consumers to tear off portions. In one pair of rolls the burger is topped with ketchup, the second has a cheese topping, and the third bacon and cheese.]

The greedy burger in me wants one all for myself!

No chips, just 2 BKs - 1 mushroom double swiss and a bacon double cheeseburger. <Drool emoticon>
Start a petition?

Post by: chocadmin on May 23, 2008, 11:59:20 pm: Yeah a petition to bring back the mushroom goodness would be welcome. I suspect it was that bit more expensive to make so cut into BK's margins :(
While we're at it how about a petition for McRib's (or am I the only one who likes them?)

Post by: smurfboy on May 24, 2008, 01:01:08 pm: Yeah, I bet a hell of a lot of people won't be sharing it at all.

They do a double version for kids too.
