REVIEW: Burger King Fiery Menu Part Two
I recently had the chance to try Burger King's new Fiery Bacon Royal Crispy Chicken sandwich and Fiery Bacon Whopper. Here's my detailed, first-person review.
Fiery Bacon Royal Crispy Chicken: Burger King has definitely stepped up their crispy chicken sandwich game with this one. The Fiery Bacon Royal Crispy Chicken sandwich was really good. Although I typically don't enjoy the fiery glaze on chicken nuggets, it surprisingly worked well on this chicken patty. However, the sauce was a letdown—it was bland and tasted like plain mayo. The pepper jack cheese, a favorite of mine, added a nice touch, but I wasn't thrilled about the two tomatoes and Burger King's iceberg lettuce, which I found awful. Overall, I'd rate this sandwich a 6/10.
Fiery Bacon Whopper: Moving on to the Fiery Bacon Whopper, it tasted much like a standard Whopper. The mayo wasn't particularly spicy, which was a bit disappointing. The pepper jack cheese, once again, was a highlight, and the bacon added more to the beef flavor compared to the chicken sandwich. Unfortunately, the salad elements, similar to those in the chicken sandwich, were subpar. This Whopper earns a 5/10 from me.
