Current Events > The Ghost Pepper Whooper is fucking good

(+) Yeah! (+)

Just got two of them, extra ghost pepper cheese, extra spicy queso, extra crispy jalapenos, regular onions, and two small fries just for $10

I got one a few days ago.

Honestly much better than I expected, but should have been a double.

Is it actually spicy though or does it just taste like onions and paprika like everything else that uses "ghost peppers" in fast food

can I get a whoop whoop

I got a little bit of head sweat, but I'm bald as fuck so it's a lot more noticeable for me.

I really liked the toppings and overall flavor, but the meat wasn't very good and it was just too greasy for me. Maybe im just not used to buger king

I'll try and grab one this week.

I wanna try one but I'm not about to drive like 25 min to the nearest burger king for it.

There used to be one down the street but it closed last year lol

I'm getting it tomorrow since CE keeps talking about it

I liked it.

definitely this

for a burger youre not gonna get a spicier one in fast food rn. only Popeyes chicken sandwiches bring noticeable heat for me

Damn you all. I cant believe Im about to go out of my way for Burger King because of your topics.

I just tried it this weekend. It tastes good, but it really isnt very hot at all.

When does it go away? Will try on Tuesday if they still have.

Where do you live for two of them with extras and small fries for 10 bucks?!

For what is worth, TheReportOfTheWeek said it was actually decently spicy.

It's surprisingly less than some of their other burgers in some nutritional categories. Especially surprising considering the bacon and queso.

Still awful as fuck for you.

This honestly seems more healthy than the average gimmick burger.

Weird comparison, but how would someone compare a shin black ramen to this heat wise?

Isnt ghost pepper insanely hot? I like some kick but too much ruins a dish.

This burger is barely hot. Tastes good, but something like hot sauce from Taco Bell is hotter.

A DQPWC at McDonald's is like 900 calories.

Restaurant chains that advertise ghost pepper products don't actually use them. You need a burger or sandwich that actually says what pepper they're using, like Bhut Jolokia, Moruga Scorpion, or Carolina Reaper.

The word "ghost chili" is essentially meaningless in marketing.

IIRC there are "duds" that are the same breed of pepper, but without the insane amounts of heat in them.

It looks gross to me. I like the bacon king minus the sauces.

The capsaicin in peppers is basically entirely within the seeds and membrane. If you peel off the outer layer of skin and roast it, you literally won't even be able to tell what pepper it came from as long as it's in the capsicum family.

freakin marketing

Whooper

Had one today for lunch. It was good. Not incredibly spicy, but tasty. Didnt expect it to have bacon on it. The jalapeo chips were a good touch.

Dont think I have any interest in going to Burger King but for anyone looking for genuinely spicy fast food, Id recommend the Diablo chicken/roast beef sandwich that Arbys just brought back

fiery hot seasoning, fire-roasted jalapeos, Diablo BBQ sauce, and a toasted red chipotle bun

shit was damn good
