Japanese Burger King Launches Meat Monster: A 1,160 Calorie Burger

Meat Monster chicken hamburger in JapanPhoto: Burger King


First, Godzilla devoured Tokyo. Now Tokyo is about to take on the Meat Monster. With everyone so health conscious these days, it's hard to believe that Burger King is introducing a new sandwich, (in Japan only) that flies in the face of sensible eating: The Meat Monster. The website Opposing Views says the "aptly named sandwich" consists of two hamburgers, a chicken breast, two slices of cheese, three pieces of bacon, and, of course, lettuce, tomatoes, and onion.

Total calories: 1,160. That's more than half the daily recommended amount for a 40-year-old woman of average height and weight. (A regular Whopper has 670 calories.) Japanese customers can also personalize their Monster, adding teriyaki sauce, an egg or even a fish patty.

No word yet if the Monster will be available in the States, but we assume, if it is, that we'll be allowed to get creative, too. Maybe we can toss on some Spaghetti-Os or Cheez-Whiz to add a real American touch.

They buy a McDonald's double cheese burger & a McDonalds McChicken sandwich. The chicken patty is put between the two cheese burger patty's. The extra bun top and bottom are put with the double cheese burger bun. The street name of this creation is McGangbanger. I wonder if African Americans all over the US are doing this and Burger King of Japan decided to try it.
