Burger King’s Whopperrito would’ve been THE IDEAL product for the burger chain to release on April Fools’ Day. It’s a menu item that would’ve caused folks to say, “Ha, ha! Nice joke, Burger King!” And then their minds would’ve been blown when they found out it’s an actual product. But that’s not going to happen because the Whopperrito will be available nationwide on August 15.
The menu item is made with flame-grilled 100 percent beef seasoned with a special blend of Tex-Mex spices, a creamy queso sauce, diced onions, tomatoes, pickles, and lettuce in a warm flour tortilla.
The burger in a wrap has 570 calories, 26 grams of fat, 11 grams of saturated fat, 1.5 grams of trans fat, 75 milligrams of cholesterol, 1110 milligrams of sodium, 59 grams of carbohydrates, 7 grams of sugar, and 29 grams of protein.

Wish they’d used a whole wheat or fiber tortilla.
Usually a visit to BK (during which you’ve eaten a burger patty containing an average of 100 different cows) is closely followed by a mad dash to get somewhere for a blowout, so I’m not sure what good a whole wheat, high-fiber tortilla is gonna do.
No, that’s just offensive and false for no reason other than to be offensive . . . .
I wish they were going to just put all the whopper stuff into a burrito the way McDonald’s did with the Big Mac Snack Wrap for a while. That was what I was looking forward to when I first heard about it.
So which is it? 11 or 1.5 grams of Saturated Fat?
Sorry. 11 grams of saturated fat and 1.5 grams of trans fat.
Horrible. Total Hot mess! Once is enough.
