As part of a new push by Burger King to eliminate more than 120 artificial ingredients from their nationwide menu – the brand have launched three Keep It Real Meals. Taking a nod from McDonald’s exceptionally successful celeb-link ups, Burger King have tapped three celebrities to “hand-select food from our Real menu to create meals that are worthy of their real names.”

Burger King provided the following notes on the new meals by way of press release:

  • The Cornell Haynes Jr Meal aka NELLY – the classic flame-grilled Whopper topped with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mayo & ketchup, small fries and a small Sprite. So hot in here…
  • The Larissa Machado Meal aka Anitta – the Impossible Whopper with lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup and mustard, small fries and a small Sprite. It’s just what I like…
  • The Chase Hudson Meal aka LILHUDDY – a hand-breaded Spicy Ch’King with cheese, 4 piece mozzarella sticks and a 16oz chocolate shake. That’s my missing piece…

Signup to the BK rewards program and you can purchase the above meals for $6 sorting from September 12th.

Hi, I'm Stuart, nice to meet you!  I'm the founder, writer and wrangler at Gastronomic SLC; I'm also a former restaurant critic of more than five years, working for the Salt Lake Tribune.  I've worked extensively with multiple local publications from Visit Salt Lake to Salt Lake Magazine, not least helped to consult on national TV shows.
