Let’s talk about Burger King coupons later, first the company story. Who does not know the name Burger King, one of the the biggest fast food chains in the world. Burger King, also known as BK, is a worldwide chain of fast food restaurants, specializing in hamburgers, with headquarters Miami-Dade County, Florida, United States. The Burger King business started in 1953 under the name Insta-Burger King, which by then was a Jacksonville, Florida-based restaurant chain. Burger King accomplished some amazing expansion and by the end of fiscal year 2010, Burger King said it operated over 12,200 restaurant locations in 73 countries; of these Burger King restaurants, 66 percent are located in the United States and over ninety percent are privately owned and operated.
The Burger King menu has transformed from just basicly offering burgers, french fries, soft drinks and milkshakes in the mid 50s, to a business with a much larger, more diverse menu of products. In 1957, Burger King introcuced the Whopper to the public which was the first big new item on the menu; the Whopper turned out to be extremely successful and without any doubt became Burger King’s signature product. Burger King’s top selling burger, the Whopper, is made of a quarter pound hamburger patty, a fresh sesame seed bun, mayonnaise and vegetables: pickles, tomatoes, lettuce, onions and ketchup. The founder of the Burger King company, James McLamore, started selling the Whopper for 37 cents each.
These days it is not only the Burger King Whopper anymore which is popular. Chicken sandwiches, chicken tenders, salads, breakfast items, and desserts are now also on the menu. In 2009 Burger King started a new project “the Whopper Bar” which is a part of the restaurant and operates more as a bar that offers drinks but also serves Whoppers.
