\"\"<\/p>\n

There are two differences between Burger King’s new Wednesday’s Whopper and a standard Whopper with Cheese. First is the use of Swiss cheese instead of American. The second is a purple sesame seed bun colored with purple potato instead of the standard sesame seed bun. The 1\/4 lb flame-grilled patty, tomato, lettuce, mayo, ketchup, pickles, and onions are present with both.<\/p>\n

If you’ve looked through the list of ingredients above and eaten various colored buns from the Whopper-Verse, you might have realized that Wednesday’s Whopper is similar to a particular web-slinger’s offering \u2014 the Spider Verse Whopper<\/a>. Instead of a purple bun, it had a red one, but everything else was the same.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Let’s start with this hamburger’s headliner, the purple bun. Prince would so approve. The purple potato used to dye the buns makes it look spiffy, and the black sesame seeds dotted across the crust are the chef’s kiss. But the vibrant violet under the crust looks even better. However, the bun is more of a visual experience than one that tantalizes your taste buds because it pretty much tastes like a standard bun. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Swiss cheese has a mellower flavor than the usual orange stuff, but its creaminess and saltiness come through, which slightly mellows the Whopper’s flame-grilled flavor. All the usual Whopper flavors are there, especially the ketchup, mayo, and pickles, which makes it taste too similar to a regular one. That’s not bad, though, since I enjoy regular Whoppers. However, I wish Burger King continued the purple theme by adding red\/purple onions (or maybe even purple-dyed cheese). The purple onion’s sharper taste also would’ve given this burger a slightly different flavor than the Spider Verse Whopper. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Finally, some of you might be wondering if there’s a specific post-digestion problem that has happened with a previous Burger King colored bun. Well, whew, no number two issues.<\/p>\n

If you’ve never experienced one of Burger King’s colored buns\u2014red, orange<\/a>, white<\/a>, green<\/a>, or black<\/a>\u2014here’s your opportunity to feast your eyes on one in real life.<\/p>\n
