Burger King Halloween Whopper Turns Your Poop Green

[Burke]

You might be done with the burger, but the burger's not done with you.



People are claiming Burger King’s Halloween Whopper – the one with the spooky black bun – turns your poo green.

Which is pretty scary to be fair.

The black burger is now available in the US and the UK until October 31.

And, according to early reviews on Twitter, the true horror of the Halloween Whopper only becomes clear when you see it on the other side.

So, why is everyone’s poo turning green? Well, a quick Google search shows that black food colouring is often made using green dye, which often results in bright green poo.

And it does seem that Burger King has used food colouring to make its black burgers, in the US at least.

The detailed nutritional information PDF online states: ‘The flavoring and food colorings used to color the HA.1.®LOWEEN WHOPPER® black bun in the US, are commonly used in the industry and within the safe and Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).’

So, yeah, it doesn’t sound like it will do you any harm.

The Halloween Whopper is now available in participating BK’s nationwide – until 31 October.

Will you dare to try it?

Now anytime someone tells me they tried this I'm gonna picture them dropping green turdlets off at the pool.

I had to look up the word turdlet.

turdlet
A tiny turd. Usually prompting disappointment.
I thought I'd lay some cable, but that turd was more of a turdlet.
