With October right around the corner, Carl's Jr. has announced the launch of a spooky new burger called: The Ghost. As if that weren't exciting enough, the new burger will also be accompanied by a new Ghost Breakfast Burger.
Designed to "lift your spirits or ease your guilt" after you've been ghosted by a date (or ghosting someone yourself), The Ghost burger will leave your tongue tingling. The Big Angus Ghost starts with a 1/3 lb charbroiled Angus beef patty topped with a slice of extra spicy ghost pepper cheese. The burger also includes applewood-smoked bacon, lettuce, tomato, and onion, all drizzled with a soul-scorching sauce. On the other hand, the new Ghost Breakfast Burger takes a folded egg patty and pairs it with the same ghost pepper cheese and soul-scorching sauce, along with crispy bacon and Hash Rounds as well.
