<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It was a Saturday, just like any other Saturday. I woke up, brushed my teeth, and got ready for the day. I read the newspaper and had a cup of coffee. I went for a morning run.<\/p>\n
Eventually, I grew hungry for lunch. I got in my car, drove to the nearest restaurant, and placed my order. I paid the cashier and waited while my food was prepared. The cashier handed me a bag and I was on my way.<\/p>\n
Once home, I sat down at my dinner table, bowed my head, and said a prayer.<\/p>\n
“Dear almighty (Burger) King, please don’t let me end up in a Yahoo! article for whatever color this bright red bun turns my poo.”<\/p>\n
Okay. Maybe it wasn\u2019t just<\/i> like any other Saturday.<\/p>\n
In the Burger King family tree, the Angriest Whopper is the livid sibling of 2009\u2019s Angry Whopper, and the extremely sunburned cousin of last year\u2019s A.1. Halloween Whopper (which made headlines last year after customers reported that its black bun turned their poop green). <\/p>\n
![\"Burger](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/25637261574_a5fc40834b_o.jpg?resize=640%2C480&ssl=1\")
<\/p>\n
As I unveiled the burger, I was greeted by an ominous proclamation: \u201cI SURVIVED THE ANGRIEST WHOPPER.\u201d So there\u2019s a chance I might not survive this thing? Were my last words really going to be a prayer about the effects a fast food cheeseburger might have on my bowels? I will admit, as gimmicky as this burger seemed, I was intrigued to see whether it would live up to its spicy billing.<\/p>\n
![\"Burger](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/26175749751_021a6daa64_o.jpg?resize=640%2C480&ssl=1\")
<\/p>\n
The Angriest Whopper\u2019s bun is very squishy. I certainly wouldn\u2019t think of it as a \u201cpremium\u201d bun used in similarly-priced burgers at other restaurants. The textures of the various ingredients are mostly similar, with some decent crunch from the lettuce and bacon. Having said that, the produce is what you would expect from Burger King\u2014more functional (to provide some color and hold the components together) than attractive.<\/p>\n
The tamer ingredients in the Angriest Whopper are decent. The bacon is crispy and provides a good meaty flavor. The patty itself has Burger King\u2019s strong charbroiled taste, but it is relatively thin for its menu price and not at all juicy. The other two standard ingredients, the mayonnaise and American cheese, struck me as odd choices for this burger. The mayo adds little and actually seems to dull the other flavors. The American cheese is similarly underwhelming. I think Burger King missed a chance to use pepper jack cheese to add some heat.<\/p>\n
![\"Burger](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/25969150830_572560e120_o.jpg?resize=640%2C480&ssl=1\")
<\/p>\n
Now, the \u201cspicy\u201d ingredients. If this Whopper is Burger King\u2019s definition of \u201cAngriest,\u201d I\u2019d like to point them to my mother\u2019s reaction when I stuffed a bag of Ritz Bitz in our VCR as a child. The only real heat comes from the four jalape\u00f1o slices, which are spicy and somewhat sour. I tried the bun separately, and if there is hot sauce baked in, I definitely couldn\u2019t taste it. The angry onion petals are soggy and limp, but actually quite tasty. They reminded me of a slightly spicier version of Burger King\u2019s onion rings. The angry sauce is undetectable for the most part. It seemed to have mixed with the mayo, and the little taste I could pick up was more sweet (almost like barbecue sauce) than spicy.<\/p>\n
The Angriest Whopper is a decently flavorful sandwich, with a good amount of heat coming mostly from the jalape\u00f1os. But at $5.49 for just the burger, you\u2019re basically paying for the novelty of the blindingly red bun. At a lower price and with a few recipe tweaks, however, this burger could be a heavy-hitter as one of Burger King\u2019s regular offerings.<\/p>\n
