Burger King Turkey

Restaurant chains have grown rapidly as rural populations have migrated into cities and digitisation has allowed from wealthier consumers seeking convenience to easily order food delivered to their homes or offices. The Burger King franchise, itself, registered system-wide same-store sales growth of 13.4% in China and 6.9% in Turkey in 2016.

The Miami-based company is rolling out the new sandwich this week as part of its limited-time offers for spring, marking the latest fast-food effort to cater to health-conscious diners. Last week, McDonald's (MCD) said it plans to offer a lower-calorie version of its Egg McMuffin made with egg whites. The Oak Brook, Ill.-based chain said the egg whites will be available for any other breakfast sandwich on its menu as well.

McDonald's and Wendy's (WEN) said they have no records indicating they ever offered a turkey burger, meaning Burger King would be the biggest fast-food chain to do so. But it's not the first. Sister chains Carl's Jr. and Hardee's launched a trio of turkey burgers as limited-time offers in late 2010; they were so popular that they're now a permanent part of the menus.

Carl's Jr. and Hardee's introduced turkey burgers in response to consumers in their 20s and 30s, who are more mindful about what they're eating than past generations, said Brad Haley, chief marketing officer for CKE Restaurants, the parent company of the chains. At the same time, he noted that the turkey burgers - which come with toppings like guacamole and pepperjack cheese- are successful because they're still seen as indulgent and filling. In terms of nutritional content, he said the key was just to keep them under 500 calories.

Showing that the healthy glow isn't strictly about calories, Burger King's turkey burger clocks in at 530 calories, compared with 470 calories for its grilled chicken sandwich. A regular Whopper is 630 calories.

Burger King's ability to charbroil its turkey burgers may play an important role in whether they're successful. That's what helped the turkey burgers at Carl's and Hardee's do so well, Haley said. When cooked on a flat-top griddle, Haley said turkey burgers can end up having "that refrigerator flavor" that makes them taste gamey.

Though beef prices have been climbing and pressuring restaurant chains, Haley noted that chicken and turkey remain more expensive because the supply chains are still far smaller than for beef. That means turkey burgers at Carl's and Hardee's are more expensive than beef burgers of comparable size.

Police are asking the public for any tips to identify two white males, possibly juveniles, who broke into the restaurant at 11 S. Washington Ave at approximately 2 a.m. on Thanksgiving, smashing the drive-through window and making away with the cash in the register.

The fire-grilled burgers are topped with lettuce, tomatoes, onions and mayo and will sell for $3.99. Carl's Jr. and Hardee's both added a limited edition turkey burger on their menus. Because the burgers where so popular, they become regular menu items.

Although it's a consumer's choice to buy a product -- and one might argue their responsibility to take a closer look at what they buy and eat -- it's irresponsible for businesses to trick people into thinking their product is either healthy or provides a certain health benefit.

Ground turkey can be a great substitute to fattier types of ground beef. However, BK's "Better-For-You" Turkey Burger has 520 calories, 26 grams fat (5 grams saturated), 1210 milligrams sodium, 46 grams carbohydrates (11 grams sugar) and 27 grams protein. Although ground turkey typically has less fat than beef, this burger doesn't. It has more fat and calories than a large fry (500 calories, 22 grams fat), a Double Bacon Cheeseburger (440 calories, 24 grams fat) and a Whopper Jr. with Cheese (380 calories, 23 grams fat). Also, it includes more than half of the recommended daily sodium intake for average adults (2,300 milligrams per day).

Sometimes, when foods are described as fresh, we think that food is a healthier option. However, that's often not the case. Let's take a look at Arby's Market Fresh Roast Turkey Ranch and Bacon Sandwich. Arby's advertises that it slices meat fresh every day. This sandwich is made on whole grain bread with oven-roasted turkey, topped with cheddar cheese, pepper bacon, ripe tomatoes, green leaf lettuce, onions and ranch dressing, according to Arby's website.

Make it yourself: 345 calories, 12.5 grams fat, 1,115 milligrams sodium, 26.25 grams carbohydrates (4.5 grams sugar), 36.5 grams protein (two slices whole grain bread, 3 ounces low-sodium turkey, 1 piece bacon, lettuce, tomato, 1 slice reduced-fat cheddar, 1 tablespoon ranch dressing)

A Burger King franchise location in Glendale is piloting a new delivery program for the fast-food brand. Franchise owner Bob Stevens, who owns eight Burger King locations, began taking delivery orders at his store on North Central Avenue on April 9.

Coming up on End of Life for its existing WAN appliances, Burger King chose to explore other options. Forcepoint Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) and Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN), combined with URL Filtering and Advanced Malware Detection (AMD) stood out as the superior option. As a result, Burger King enjoyed immediate cost savings and reliable connectivity.

The largest global franchisee of Restaurant Brands International Inc. has picked Citigroup Inc. and HSBC Holdings Plc for an initial public offering of its Chinese and Turkish outlets on the Borsa Istanbul, people with knowledge of the matter said, marking its latest attempt to sell stakes in its fast-food businesses.

TAB Food Investments is working with the banks on a potential first-time share sale for the restaurants that could raise about $250 million and could take place as soon as this year, said the people, who asked not to be identified as the information is private, reported Bloomberg on 1 September.

Given inflationary pressures, Tom Curtis, the president of Burger King's North America operations, said on an earnings call Tuesday that the burger chain lifted "some price caps on some selected items" and "removed Whopper from our core discount" menu.

After some test runs in Pennsylvania, Burger King introduced the nation to the Whopperrito in the late summertime. Some people thought this menu item was a bit weird, but others found it surprisingly tasty. The burger got some social media buzz but was quickly discontinued three short months after its launch. In all, the Whopperito wasn't very well-received, which makes the chance of a comeback next to nil. Though an online petition for the Whopperito came and went, there's still hope for die-hard fans. True to the slogan "Have it your way," customers have reported that Burger King locations have allowed them to request their Whopper in a tortilla. The restaurant keeps tortillas in stock for its breakfast burrito. It may lack the queso sauce and the original Whopperito's kick, but it's the only way this discontinued menu item will live on for the foreseeable future.

Burger King has never shied away from including healthier items on its menu. One of the most notable examples was the turkey burger, which substituted the beef patty for ground turkey. This item was introduced in 2013 as a limited-edition option. It was marketed as a healthier alternative and also included an Artisan bun and red onions.

The Western Whopper is a burger that you might remember if you grew up in the '90s. The restaurant put a lot of advertising into the rollout, which featured plenty of cowboy and Western-themed commercials. In addition to the famous flame-broiled beef, the Western Whopper also included strips of crispy bacon and a dollop of Bullseye Barbecue sauce. The Western Whopper was brought back again for a short time in the 2000s and featured humorous commercials of burgers making people grow mustaches after eating them.

Burger King has always had the willingness to go head-to-head with the big dogs in whatever menu items they specialize in. Its main competitor, McDonald's, has long sold apple pies that are a hit with customers. It's virtually a reflex for some people to order an apple pie to go with their Big Mac combo. Burger King once came out with its own answer to McDonald's apple pie in the form of the Dutch apple pie. Burger King added a twist by making it a deep dish treat with a flakier crust. Fans loved Burger King's take because it felt a lot closer to homemade style. The pie had a gooey filling and plenty of size for the money that you pay. They were also full slices, much like you would get if you had made the pie yourself.

One of the most memorable Burger King items from long ago was the Yumbo. The burger giant mixed up its menu decades ago with the release of this ham and cheese sandwich. It featured simple ingredients of melted cheese, mayonnaise, lettuce, and ham on a sesame seed bun. The sandwich first came out in the '60s before being discontinued in 1974. It was popular when it was out originally, but the long stretch of being discontinued probably means that it would have returned permanently if the company thought it had a shot at being a hit today.

Once again, we turn to a dessert menu item that Burger King discontinued, much to the fan base's chagrin. The restaurant's Cup Cake BK Sundae Shake was an incredibly festive-looking Burger King milkshake. This offering was released to compete with the McDonald's and Dairy Queens of the world while leaving its own signature stamp. The Cup Cake BK Sundae Shake featured a vanilla shake, along with the sprinkles and frosting that you would see on a cupcake. It was thicker and creamier than you would get when ordering a typical milkshake.

What's a king without a crown? That's the question that Burger King was hoping to answer with its unique take on chicken nuggets that came out in 2006. Rather than reinvent the wheel, this menu item was pretty straightforward. It took the same recipe that people love from the company's original chicken nuggets, and simply turned them into the shape of a king's crown. The chain marketed these white meat crown-shaped nuggets by saying that the crown shape made them perfect for dipping into barbecue, ranch, or your favorite sauce. These crown-shaped chicken nuggets had a decent run in the mid-2000s, before being discontinued in 2011. 2351a5e196
