I feel like the filling is actually one of those fruity sugary thanksgiving aunt "salad"s rather than the... what, cream cheese and peppers that it's supposed to be?

Trip report: Angriest Whopper

One of the worst fast-food meals I've ever had was on a road trip; out of desperation, unable to find a decent-looking diner or anything, I stopped at a Burger King and had an Indy Whopper. (Yes, this was when Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull had just come out.) I was frustrated and tired, and the burger was really bland and bad, despite having "Cajun mayo" and pepperjack cheese and the like. So when someone posted an image of the Angriest Whopper, I thought: well, I wonder how different that is? And what in the world will that red bun be like?

So I went.



The burger has some impressive verticality when wrapped. I'm used to the actual burgers at a place being sad, squashed versions of the ads, but this one looked like it might actually be a bit like it.



Opened up, it looked far more like the promo image than I expected it to. I was sitting next to a window with a sticker/poster for the Angriest Whopper, and looking back and forth, I could see the same ingredients in the same order. And yes, the bun really is THAT red. Inside and out.

As for taste? I know it's the thing to do to be all hyperbolic about things in this thread, but, hey, it was pretty good. When you get a bite that has all of the flavors working together, it's nice; a bit spicy, a bit salty, a bit beefy. I find that the flame-grilled flavor at BK tends to come and go, but it was there today. I tried some of the bun on its own, and it did have a slight spicy taste in and of itself. Somewhat oddly, though, the best-tasting bits of the burger were the ones where it tasted most like a plain ol' Whopper.



I didn't know if I was going to post this possibly-gross picture of a half-eaten burger, but what the hell. You can see how violently red the inside of the bun is, there.

So, yeah, there's that. The only real thing wrong with this lunch was that, for the amount I spent, I could've gotten one of the crazy-good patty melts at the local diner with hand-made-to-order potato chips, or a huge plate of pad thai with hot and sour soup, or a basket of Dr. Insano wings and salt-and-pepper fries from the other diner, or hand-breaded clams and chowder at the new seafood joint, or or or... there are just so many good meals to be had around here in this price range that it feels weird to have gone to Burger King and had something that was, yeah, all right, but nothing extra-special.

It photographs weirdly well, but the bun is just sort of unsettling. Still would.

The bun in the bitten picture reminds me entirely too much of playdoh for me to be comfortable ordering one.

Chicken is rapidly being adapted for structural components of food I noticed. KFC has that sandwich that uses chicken patties as a bun, and Taco Bell has a taco whose shell is a chicken patty.

My blood pressure twitches in anticipation for some Roadhouse type restaurant to use a reconstituted fried chicken patty as a wooden 'plank' on which appetizers are plated. Maybe eat my fries out of a chicken bucket.

No chicken rules, yo.
