Burger King is a fast-food giant known for its flame-grilled burgers, crispy fries, and indulgent milkshakes. However, not every item on their menu is a winner. Nutritional concerns, quality concerns, or personal preferences might make you think twice about ordering some items. In this gallery article, we’ll explore 8 things you should avoid ordering at Burger King.
Triple Whopper
A Triple Whopper is three beef patties stacked together with all the fixings. A single Triple Whopper can contain well over 1,000 calories, which is a significant portion of the recommended daily intake for most adults. A high-calorie meal consumed in one sitting can result in obesity and other health problems in the long run.
Bacon King Sandwich
As delicious as it may sound, the Bacon King Sandwich is loaded with saturated fat and sodium. It’s not the healthiest choice, especially if you’re watching your cholesterol or blood pressure levels.
King Size Fries
Burger King’s fries are delicious, but the king-size portion has excessive calories and sodium. Opt for a smaller size or swap them out for a side salad or apple slices.
Crispy Chicken Tenders
While tempting in their crunchy coating and convenient dipping sauce options, these tenders are often high in calories, fat, and sodium. Moreover, individuals with dietary restrictions or preferences may be concerned about the ingredient list, which includes additives and preservatives.
Bacon Egg & Cheese Croissan’wich
Breakfast sandwiches can be a convenient option when you’re on the go, but the Bacon Egg & Cheese Croissan’wich is loaded with calories and saturated fat. Look for lighter breakfast options such as oatmeal or a breakfast burrito with healthier fillings.
Large Chocolate Sundae
Laden with creamy vanilla soft serve ice cream, rich chocolate syrup, whipped topping, and often supplemented with nuts or candy, this dessert is a decadent treat that can quickly escalate in caloric content. Consuming such a dessert regularly can contribute to an increased risk of diabetes and dental issues.
Extra Long Cheeseburger
The Extra Long Cheeseburger is crammed with unhealthy fats from the beef patties, cheese, and sauces. It is important to note that these fats are saturated and trans fats, both increasing cholesterol levels and associated with cardiovascular disease.
BK Ultimate Breakfast Platter
The Burger King Ultimate Breakfast Platter typically contains many calories, primarily from fat and carbohydrates. Ingesting such a diet high in saturated fat is associated with a potential risk of cardiovascular problems.
