A BIG breakfast at Burger King?
Burger King is reportedly set to unveil a large new breakfast sandwich that bets not everyone is looking to watch their diet.
USA Today reports that the No. 2 fast food chain is set to debut its Enormous Omelet Sandwich Monday. The sandwich will have one sausage patty, two eggs, two American cheese slices and three strips of bacon, according to the paper.
That works out to 730 calories and 47 grams of fat, according to the report. While the sandwich goes against the trend at some competitors to offer healthier fare, some analysts said that the new sandwich is likely to be a sales success. That’s more than the company’s Whopper burger, which the Burger King Web site said has 700 calories and 42 grams of fat.
“The critics will still label it food porn,” says Sherri Daye Scott, editor at QSR, a fast-food industry trade magazine told the paper. “But the average male fast-food customer does not have a problem with this.”
The new offering could also make Burger King more of a player in the breakfast market, where USA Today reports it seriously lags behind McDonald’s (Research).
Burger King has been privately held since it was sold by British food conglomerate Diageo to a group led by Texas Pacific Group in 2002.
Hardee’s
I had Hardee’s for lunch today. I had a Big Champ combo and the Turkey & Swiss sandwich. The Turkey & Swiss was decent, nothing special. The Big Champ today thought was awful. I don’t know how they messed it up but it tasted terrible and I just couldn’t finish it. Last time I will have the Big Champ again. Will stick to the regular mushroom & swiss next time.
Sunkist Orange Drink
My favorite orange drink since highschool has been Sunkist. I started drinking it back in highschool because it was cheap at only 50fils. Since then, Sunkist has become the only orange juice I drink. For some reason though I always thought Sunkist was a 100% local product. But just now I was reading the label and it said “Under license from Sunkist Growers Inc; USA”. So I googled Sunkist and quickly found www.sunkist.com. Then I found this which I found funny:
Sunkist products have a long history in several Persian Gulf States. Besides being a major juice brand, Sunkist is the market leader in juice drink cups in the Kuwaiti market.
Ofcourse they are gonna be the market leader, their are no other juice drink cups in the market! hehe, anyway, Sunkist still rules!
Pizza Hut
We had a brainstorming today during lunch so we ordered Pizza Hut. I had two slices of peperroni pizza. Tonight I have to go pick up my brother from the airport, will have Burger King with nibaq there.
