Now rolling in to a city near you! Burger King has kicked off the biggest sampling campaign in its history, offering free samples of great-tasting items from the brand’s recently expanded menu.
Guests can stop in to their local, participating restaurant to receive the featured free sample, or they can track down one of the 30 BK branded food trucks that are visiting 40 cities nationwide.
“Burger King is so excited about its menu expansion that we are giving guests across the country numerous chances to try them for free,” says Alex Macedo, senior vice president, North American marketing, Burger King Corp. “The new menu items have been incredibly well-received by our guests so far and we are looking forward to introducing these new offerings to even more BK fans as we head across the country.”
The following menu items will be available for in-restaurant and/or food truck sampling opportunities, with fresh new flavors:
- The Garden Fresh Chicken, Apple, and Cranberry Salad is made-to-order with crisp apples, dried cranberries, and bleu cheese atop seven types of lettuce, and topped off with tendergrill chicken and Ken’s Apple Cider Vinaigrette.
- The new, premium Crispy Chicken Strips from Burger King are made with white meat tenderloin chicken, marinated and lightly battered in seasoned home-style breading. Typically served in three- or five-piece servings, Crispy Chicken Strips are perfect for dipping in one of the classic or bold new sauces, such as new Kung Pao and Roasted Jalapeño Barbecue sauces.
- The new line of Real Fruit Smoothies at BK are freshly made with low-fat yogurt, real fruit, and juices, blended together to create the perfect Tropical Mango or Strawberry Banana smoothie. Each smoothie provides a full serving of fruit.
- BK Frappés are rich, smooth, and made to order, providing a perfect combination of sweet Mocha or Caramel flavors, blended with a hint of coffee and ice.
