After taking my first bite of Burger King\u2019s Mexican Street Corn Whopper, the only thing that circled my brain was that this Whopper\u2019s taste reminded me of a Taco Bell Crunchy Taco Supreme. If the fast food chain that tells us to Live M\u00e1s ever decided to make a burger, which I predict will happen within the next five years, I imagine it would taste like this.<\/p>\n

When I thought about it more than one should when thinking about a fast food cheeseburger, it shouldn\u2019t be a surprise that this Whopper tastes similar to a taco because there are several corresponding ingredients. Both have tomatoes, some kind of cheese, ground beef, and not-quite-completely-green but not-quite-completely-white lettuce. Both have a tanginess from sauces; sour cream with the taco and street corn spread with this burger. Finally, the tortilla strips are a stand-in for a taco shell\u2019s flavor and have a pleasant crunch that would make any crunchy taco proud.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Mexican Street Corn Whopper is supposed to have a spicy queso, but as I ate it, I didn\u2019t notice anything that would be considered spicy anywhere on the Scoville scale. So I wondered whether it was included in my order, but I tasted a queso flavor while eating it, so that cheesiness makes me believe it was included.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now, let\u2019s talk about that creamy street corn spread. Thank goodness this didn\u2019t have actual Mexican Street Corn lurking between the sesame seed bun. Because I can\u2019t imagine a mere burger bun overcoming gravity\u2019s attempt to pull down the loose corn kernels while it\u2019s also trying to prevent the lettuce and tortilla strips from falling out. The street corn spread is not a gooey sauce like a queso. Instead, it\u2019s slightly grainy. As for its flavor, it\u2019s cheesy, somewhat peppery, and corny. I guess its spices help the flame-grilled beef patty taste like Taco Bell\u2019s seasoned beef.<\/p>\n

The Mexican Street Corn Whopper is tasty, and I enjoyed it slightly more than the Fried Pickle Ranch Whopper<\/a>, but I feel its name is inaccurate because it tastes like a Taco Bell Taco Supreme to me.<\/p>\n
