Burger King trying to stay relevant....

Tweet

Some of you know that I worked at, then managed a Burger King for almost a year. It was....an experience. Not one that I ever hope to repeat. The people were iffy, the management sucked and the stores been in need of a upgrade for at least a decade if not two. So when I was scrolling through news, I saw a story that caught my eye. Burger King has been aggressively trying to stay relevant and keep up with McDonald's or other newer more popular fast food places. They ran a million dollar whopper contest, and have three new flavors of whoppers (which is something we may tackle in a future post). But they have also joined in on the Pickle craze and offer pickle fries. I thought they might just be fries that were pickle flavored but nope. They are actually sliced up pickle spears that have been breaded and fried. They are served with ranch dressing. Because anything fried needs ranch dressing. I do not like pickles, but have been known to eat fried pickles every once in awhile. However, I know how well BK handles things like this and I think I will pass. Will you be trying this new concoction? I guess it's not really new. Fried pickles are not a new thing, but its new for Burger King. {Picture is from Google}
