It seems that Wendy's won't be the only QSR brand serving up its take on the iconic Krabby Patty from the SpongeBob SquarePants series this month because Serious Eats has just announced the launch of its own Krabby Patty Burger.
Created in partnership with Paramount and Nickelodeon, Serious Eats' new Krabby Patty Burger is designed to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the SpongeBob SquarePants series. On Oct. 8 from 5 to 7 p.m., SpongeBob fans are invited to come on down to the Serious Eats location in Grand Prairie to try the exclusive new Krabby Patty Burger for themselves. This real-life take on the fictional meal will consist of an all-beef slider patty topped with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, red onion, pickles, and Boom Boom sauce. As Milkshake Concepts CEO Imran Sheikh explains, "Serious Eats is also about having serious fun, and our limited-time Krabby Patty Burger is both fun and delicious!"
