Burger King Japan has finally launched the new food item that was initially thought to be just part of a stunt for the April Fools' Day. The restaurant released the "Fake Burger" on April 1, proving that the previous announcement was not a prank at all.
Burger King Japan also posted updated images of the "Fake Burger" without the blur effect that hid what was inside the sandwich. The updated clear picture revealed a burger with french fries instead of the usual beef patty.
Return of the Unique Sandwich
SoraNews24 reported that many customers felt uncertain when Burger King Japan first shared the posters for its "Fake Burger," especially because the launch date coincides with April Fools' Day. Many thought that it could be a prank to hype up the brand.
But then, the fast-food chain released the new burger on the promised date, and the product has indeed returned to the stores. The Fake Burger was first introduced almost four years ago, in October 2020, so its addition to the menu this month is just a comeback after a long absence from the menu.
What is Inside the Limited-Time Sandwich
In a press release, Burger King shared that its Fake Burger consists of a bun filled with french fries layered with two Gouda cheeses. The sandwich is completed with a drizzle of Bull's-Eye Barbecue Sauce, which has a distinctive smoky taste.
Customers may get the Fake Burger at Burger King stores in Japan for 390 yen or $2.57 a la carte. It can also be purchased as part of a meal with a small-sized drink. On Gigazine, one customer mentioned that the burger is smaller compared to other Whoppers because it is served in a junior-sized bun.
Meanwhile, customers must take note that some Burger King stores in Japan may not offer the Fake Burger. These stores that will not sell the new sandwich are Burger King Tokyo Racecourse Store, Burger King Tsugaike Yuki no Hiroba, and the branch in Kyoto Racecourse food court.
