Burger King is unveiling the ‘Angriest Whopper,’ a furiously delicious sandwich atop a fiery red bun, baked with hot chilli. The Angriest Whopper sandwich packs a punch in every infuriating bite with crispy angry onion petals, spicy angry sauce and zesty jalapeños piled high atop flame-grilled beef or chicken patty and melted cheese, iceberg lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and creamy mayonnaise between the red-hot bun.
To help unveil this product to the world, the Burger King brand invited volcano specialist, and co-creator and host of ‘Angry Planet’ George Kourounis, to guide four of the biggest Angry Whopper sandwich enthusiasts from around the world on the adventure of a lifetime – the opportunity to flame grill the brand’s signature 100% beef patties over the angriest fire of all: fire retrieved from the depths of the raging Pacaya Volcano in Guatemala. Now, that’s the Angriest Whopper sandwich ever. The film of the adventure can be seen on the Burger King brand’s social channels including Facebook.
The Angriest Whopper sandwich will be available for a limited time only in Burger King restaurants across Sri Lanka at Colpetty, Mt. Lavinia, Rajagiriya, Arcade Independence Square, Kandy City Center, Central Hospital – Food Court, Liberty Plaza, Negombo, Colombo 01 (behind Dutch Hospital), Wattala and Bandaranaike International Airport.
