Burger King Thailand Release 20 Cheese Slice Burger

Jul 12 2023

Depending on whether you love cheese or hate it, this could be heaven or a nightmare for you.

On Sunday, Thailand’s Burger King launched the ‘real cheeseburger’, a patty-less sandwich which makes up for the meatless-ness with 20 slices of processed American cheese.

That’s it – just cheese and two buns. No other ingredients like lettuce, tomato, pickles, sauces… nothing. Just cheese.

The menu item is apparently part of a trend in Thailand where cheese is placed on literally everything, and the burger quickly gained vitality on social media for its bizarre serving status.

A trend in #Thailand is to put cheese on literally everything. Now Burger King has joined in with the Real Cheese Burger. Though I think they forgot the meat.

I love cheese but I struggled eating even half of this “burger”. Maybe I should grill the other half? What do you think? pic.twitter.com/dg7wDCSCCw

After the 15,000 signature milestone was reached on a petition created by Isabelle Bonnici, the grieving mother of Corradino construction victim Jean Paul Sofia, she released a video thanking the public for their constant support and appealing for more signatures.

The petition now has a goal of 25,000 signatures, with 17,553 signed as of time of this writing.

This comes hours before parliament is expected to vote on whether the inquiry will shift from a magisterial inquiry into a public one – a goal many activists and members of the Opposition have been appealing for.

In her video statement, Isabelle said that Malta and Gozo’s workers need to be protected and that she does not want to have any other parent grieve in the way she is.

If you wish to support, you can find the petition here.
