I Opt For Team “That’s a Bit Much”

Burger King Thailand’s Newest Offering Is Made for Cheese Lovers

This week, Burger King Thailand unveiled a meatless burger. No, not a veggie burger. A literal meatless burger known as the “real cheeseburger,” made with 20 slices of American cheese on a bun. And nothing else.

I’m confused. This is something you can’t make at home?

The menu item dropped on Sunday, July 8, along with a social media post [as]suring people, “This is not a joke. This is for real.”

The “burger” is currently selling for 109 Thai baht, or about $3. …

According to the brand’s Facebook post, you can add two more slices for 20 Thai baht, or about .58 cents.

“It was as revolting as you thought it would be: dry, a shock to the digestive system, and literally a thousand calories worth of unnecessary processed cheese,” reporter Eric E Surbano wrote in his review for Lifestyle Asia. “That’s another thing: for something called the ‘Real Cheeseburger,’ there’s nothing real about any of the cheese here.”
