Thread: Thai Cheeseburger by Burger King

Bangkok CNN —
Burger King is causing a stir in Thailand with its new offering: a burger with no meat and a jaw-dropping amount of cheese.

This week, the Thai operator of the fast food chain introduced what it calls the “real cheeseburger,” a bun filled with as many as 20 slices of American cheese.

The item launched on Thai menus Sunday, at a reduced price of 109 Thai baht ($3.1), compared with the usual price of 380 baht ($10.9). It quickly went viral on social media in Thailand, with many users on TikTok posting videos of them trying the new sandwich.

“This is no joke. This is for real,” Burger King said in a Sunday social media
At one Burger King branch in Bangkok on Tuesday, a shift manager was overheard saying the outlet had to stop taking delivery orders so they could have enough stock left for walk-in diners.

I'll have you know that's good old fashion American cheese on that burger, ain't nothing fake about it, sort of!

So its a grilled cheese sandwich then?

Who's going to be brave enough to be the first to admit trying one? Who's going to take one for the team and give it a try?

No. They don't even grill it. Cold, fake cheese slices in a bun.

Outstanding, so it's a white trash cheese sammy except on a bun.

Looks terrible from the pic.

I'm taking a step backwards on this one. I want to survive my trip to Thailand.

Thankfully someone else did and reported on it.

Big fan of processed cheese but that's too much. It at least needs some processed beef in there.

You know it's one to swerve when even Army is turning his nose up at it.

I wanna know how they can put 20 slices of cheese in it for 109 baht, including the bun, when a pack of 12 slices of Australian Allowrie brand cheese costs 145 baht at lotus ! Must be crap cheese...oh yes, it does say American......

It's a special offer...the regular price is 380B.

^ So, the cheese and bun are passed their best-by dates. Going to be a brave choice.

A sachet of hot sauce and Snubby and Topper would be all over it

Snub goes to great pains to distance himself from trailer trash but if it wasn't for a handy basement he'd all over one.

25THB extra for a bacon slice

according to coconuts who did a taste test

its a follow up to that january chocolate burger (advertised by the black fella)

they seem to be taking this any attention is good thing too literally

And this is what it looks like.

No I wouldn't, I can't even remember the last time I set foot in a Burger King, not sure what a basement has to do with it. You Brits seem to have a strange fetish for basements, or you are on the piss as usual.

Some junk that armstrong wouldn't eat?

Can it be true?

Strangely enough that cheese whiz concoction made news here in the states.

After the pics I saw, that is disgusting. Plastic cheese on white bread bun.

Next up will be the Sugar burger when they smear loads of cheap margarine and granulated sugar.

I'm taking an educated guess that Somchai in Purchasing f*&ked up and put an extra 0 on the end of how many boxes they needed for this quarter.

Either chalked up as a loss leader or sell at cost.

No, Topper wouldn't. I wouldn't be able to shit for a month and would probably die from shitplosion.
