Burger King Brings Mountain Burgers to Lowlands

bk_nethermtnYou have to love the global burger scene. No sooner does McDonald’s unveil burgers named for New York and other American cities in Scandinavia than Burger King counters with a series of burgers named for mountains.

The Mountain Burgers are now on the menu in extremely unmountainous The Netherlands, where BK previously offered XL Burgers and, before that, the infamous Grilled Cheese Steakhouse burger with the unsettling “Say cheese” TV commercial. 

The most interesting of the three Mountain Burgers is the Smoky Barbecue, which has cross-cut fries tucked under the top bun along with smoky Cheddar cheese. The others are the self-explanatory Blue Cheese burger (as in the Blue Ridge mountains?) and the Rocky Cheese with one of those odd fried-cheese discs that BK loves and the curiously unexplained “mountain sauce.” The premium-price burgers are approximately $4.50 alone or $7.27 as part of a combo with fries and a drink.

Burger King’s TV commercials (at left) for the Mountain Burgers are funny and surprisingly understated. That certainly hasn’t always been the case.
