Bacon Sundae
The world's second biggest hamburger chain on Thursday is
launching several pork, beef and chicken sandwiches as limited time offers. And
for a sweet ending, the company is also offering a bacon sundae — vanilla soft
serve with fudge, caramel, bacon crumbles and a piece of bacon — that started
in Nashville, Tenn. earlier this year.
The salty-sweet dessert clocks in at 510 calories, 18 grams
of fat and 61 grams of sugar.
The limited-time items are Burger King's latest push to win
back customers with a revived menu and reverse-sliding market share, an effort
that started soon after the company was taken private by the private equity
firm 3G Capital in late 2010.
This year, Burger King launched its biggest-ever menu
expansion, including fruit smoothies, snack wraps and new salads. The items
were intended to go after a broader audience of moms and families, a shift from
the chain's previous strategy of courting young men with calorie bombs.
Core menu items, such as French fries and the Whopper, have
also been tweaked as part of the company's efforts to improve food quality.
Burger King is trying to underscore its own focus on ingredients with a new tag
line, "Taste Is King," which replaces "Have It Your Way." A
new ad has been celebrating summer barbecues to highlight the chain's emphasis
on fire-grilling burgers. The new summer items will be featured in ads starting
Thursday.
This month, 3G plans to take Burger King public on the New
York Stock Exchange.
Wendy's is also revamping its menu to improve ingredients and
recast itself as a higher-end burger chain. The makeovers by the hamburger
giants come at a time when the traditional fast-food chains are seeing more
competition from smaller players such as Five Guys Burgers and Smashburger that
offer higher-quality food and alternatives such as Subway.
Burger King isn't the only fast-food chain that's trying to
draw attention with unusual offerings. Taco Bell earlier this year introduced
its tacos with Doritos shells and a "nacho burrito" that includes
corn chips.
The rest of Burger King's summer menu includes:
—Memphis Pulled Pork BBQ Sandwich.
—Carolina BBQ Whopper or Chicken Sandwich.
—Texas BBQ Whopper or Chicken Sandwich.
—Sweet potato fries.
—Frozen Lemonade.
The items will be available until Sept. 3 or while supplies
last.

Bacon Soft Drink
Say this three times fast; (Bacon Cola, Baking Soda)
This was not released as an official flavor, more or less purely as a collectible item. needless to say it's worth a try.
