Burger King: Would you try the Tokyo Teriyaki Tower Burger?
By D. Goodman
Are you one of those people who goes through the Burger King drive-thru, gets a Whopper with Cheese and thinks that it’s just too much burger for you? Does the thought of a Double Whopper with Cheese and Bacon send shivers down your spine and give you a stomach ache?
Then we’d like to offer you a free piece of advice. If you ever go to Japan, don’t plan on eating at any of the Burger Kings in the country. Because they believe that the bigger the better when it comes to the burgers over there.
They have offered things such as the Extreme One Pound Beef Burger, which includes a burger patty that weighs, you guessed it, one pound. It was so big it didn’t come with a bun. They have even offered discounts if you take part in an all-you-can-eat challenges.
Now Burger King Japan may have topped themselves with their latest creation. A burger that is a celebration of the Japanese staple, teriyaki sauce. As reported by Mashed, this new burger is called the Tokyo Teriyaki Tower Burger and it is not for the faint of heart.
The Burger King Tokyo Teriyaki Tower Burger includes a pound of meat.
The Tokyo Teriyaki Tower Burger includes four quarter pound patties, which if you do that math adds up to a pound of flame grilled greatness. All four patties have been liberally doused in teriyaki sauce and just for good measure it also includes miso paste and green onions. And because this is Burger King, it also comes with pickles, onions, cheese and mayo.
That is one big burger my friends.
The only catch? The Tokyo Teriyaki Tower Burger also has a big price tag. If you are in Japan and order one it will set you back 1380 yen, which comes out to about $13 American. Of course, you can eat it for four days so it could be seen as a bargain depending on how you look at it.
The best part? If you order it and are one of the few who can actually eat the entire thing, you get a nifty sticker telling the world that yes, you finished the Tokyo Teriyaki Tower Burger. A stomach ache was never so worth it.
Now of you decide you want one you have to act fast. The Tokyo Teriyaki Tower Burger will only be available at Burger King in Japan until July 8. And since there is almost no chance of it coming to the States, book your flight today.
