As Burger King continues giving guests the ability to call or text its president, Tom Curtis, customers have already helped shape operations, the restaurant’s image and the overall BK experience. Up next? It’s famous Whopper burger.
The brand is making changes to its iconic sandwich, the first in nearly 10 years, according to a press release.
The Whopper will be higher-quality, including a more premium, better-tasting bun. It will also be served in a box and have better-tasting mayonnaise.
“Over the past several years, we’ve focused on strengthening our operations and modernizing our restaurants to build a more consistent foundation across the system,” Curtis said in the press release. “With that work well underway, we’re now in a position to thoughtfully elevate our core menu. The Whopper is an icon, so we didn’t set out to reinvent it. Instead, we elevated it based on direct Guest feedback.”
Burger King has more than 19,000 locations in more than 120 countries and U.S. territories.
