The Burger King Franken Whopper is Arriving in Canada
Michael Hemsworth — October 29, 2021 — Lifestyle
The Burger King Franken Whopper is being launched by the QSR brand at its locations in Canada to provide consumers with a way to celebrate Halloween in an unexpected way. The menu item consists of a regular Whopper that has been paired with layers of onion rings and fries to make it an all-in-one way to enjoy a burger with a side. This gives the burger a distinctly larger format that draws name inspiration from Frankenstein's monster given the way it has been merged with unexpected additions.
The Burger King Franken Whopper is being made available through the BK app where hungry patrons can order it at participating locations across Canada, but only for a short while to make it a Halloween exclusive.
