Who has had the new BK Low carb way?

[wovenwonder]

Be careful.....

I read on another board that most Burger Kings are charging extra to have the whopper without the bun IF you order it low carb style. For example the regular whopper was 99 cents at one place BUT the low carb whopper was $1.99! PLUS she asked for cheese --- to add cheese to the reg.whopper it was 20 cents BUT to add the same slice of chees to the low carb whopper it was 40 cents. I don't like this at all. I don't understand their way of thinking. Surely the salad bowl they put the 'low carb' whopper in cannot cost more than the bun? I think I'll just order the regular whopper and ask for an empty salad container ---- and make some birds in the area happy when they get my bun!

Have any WISHers had experience with this yet?

This always amazes me...

They don't offer the low carb version at my BK so I just take the bun off. I like the double cheeseburger, its very neat without the bun.

I was at our local BK the other night and they call it the low carb "platter". I asked what came with the burger besides the salad bowl and the manager admitted nothing besides a fork and knife! I ordered my sandwich the regular way (no ketchup or mayo), took it home and and threw away the bun, added my own lc mayo and whole wheat bread. It was delicious! I don't need them to charge me for a "platter" when you don't really get anything with your pattie that's extra. It's a good marketing strategy but I don't think I'll be ordering my burger that way.

I have always ordered it regular and just take off the bun myself...I haven't seen the new ones yet though at our local BK...I will be on the lookout though if there is a price change! Thanks for the heads up!
