Angry Burger
Day One food travel journal…
San Jose Airport:
Brought with me 1 pound of prawn cocktail with homemade cocktail sauce, but could not find a Guinness anywhere—so sad!
Did however find a Burger King and something new and special—especially delicious that is—The Angry Burger!
The Angry Whopper!
Burger King released the Angry Whopper in the US, a version of the Whopper topped with spicy crispy onions, jalapeños, pepper jack cheese, bacon, tomatoes, lettuce, mayonnaise, and spicy Angry Sauce. Visit the burger’s official site Angry-Gram to send the subject of your anger a personalized message screamed forth from an animated Angry Whopper.
Okay, not just good—GREAT!
Now, I knew I had the prawn, and that would be more than enough, but the fact I didn’t have the Guinness was unfulfilling, so nothing like fast food to fill that empty feeling…
But, I didn’t need to eat a whole Whopper, so I asked if they could make it on a Whopper Junior, the woman said sorry, but at this point I needed to know how this burger with spicy onion rings and jalepenoes would taste. When she called my order in over the microphone to my delight ordered it on a Whopper Junior! I guess it being very late and my devilish charm (I didn’t even have my crown on yet…) oh and it was also fathers day…
The burger was perfect, the right amount of heat from the jalepeno balanced with the right amount of sweetness from the onion rings and sauce—on a grilled burger with a nice tomato and lettuce—very good!
I did ask for a crown which she gladly gave me and I have yet to give it to my father whom I’m visiting and he is king… I knew I got him a present!

On the plane…
Yeah, I ate the shrimp too. Had them first (don’t get crazy on me I only ate 4 with a chardonay) had two beers—both Heinekin, but one light and one regular with the Angry Whopper that left me anything but… All on the house of the very sexy male attendents whom where very attentive on Jet Blue. Yeah, had a bag of blue chips, cashews, and two bags of cookies with the last beer. Nooo, didn’t, but should have thown up!
Did have a hard time eating brunch when I landed though…
