Burger King Is Making 3 Changes to the Whopper. The Most Important Change Has Nothing to Do With the Taste

Drowning in a sea of complaints over the last few years, the fast food chain came up with a few modifications that hopefully won’t increase the price.

In recent months, fans of Burger King appear to have fallen out of love with the chain’s signature sandwich, the Whopper.

Social media has been full of complaints about the quality of ingredients and even completely deformed burgers.

In response, the burger chain said this week that it is rolling out a revamped Whopper. Here’s what’s changing, and where and when you can get yours.

Why is Burger King revamping the Whopper?

In short, customers became unhappy with the quality of the chain’s flagship burger in recent years. Criticisms range from the lackluster quality of ingredients in the burger to soggy buns to even smashed burgers (no, not in a good way).

That last complaint—burgers that were physically deformed when they reached the customer’s hands—is something even the company’s U.S. and Canadian president, Tom Curtis, admitted to.

“So the Whopper being smushed, literally, I’ve heard it . . . and we’ve seen it,” Curtis told CNN.

And while no one expects a fast food burger to be the gold standard for hamburgers around the world, lately, customers seem to have lost patience with the Whopper’s problems—especially as prices have risen in recent years and once “affordable” fast food has become increasingly out of reach for many Americans.
