McDonald’s Wings & Burger King’s French Fry Burger Coming Soon

It looks like two fast food giants are ready to unleash dishes into some uncharted territory for both companies. McDonald's will be unleashing wings, while Burger King is ready to help you pack on the winter pounds with their french fry burger. Keep reading for details on when these two dishes will be hitting the streets!

From Inquisitr about McDonald's Wings:

This new food item on the McDonald’s menu is to be called Mighty Wings, and will be rolled out to stores next month, starting September 9. It is hoped that all its branches across the US will have the wings available for purchase by September 24th. Don Thompson, the CEO of McDonald’s, has been trying to revamp the burger chain, in order to increase revenue and boost shares. The latest initiative, which puts them in direct competition with KFC, will see finger lickin’ bone-in chicken wings on the McDonald’s menu till at least the end of November.

 

Also from Inquisitr about Burger King's Fry Burger:

Now that summer is wrapping up, the fast food chain is hoping customers are ready to pack on a little winter weight. The company will begin offering the odd creation on its Dollar Menu this September for a limited time. In other words, enjoy it while you can. Although the chain’s French Fry Burger is only a buck, this doesn’t mean the offering isn’t a certified calorie bomb. According to The Associated Press, the menu item contains 19 grams of fat and a whopping 360 calories. Moderation is definitely suggested.
Burger King is currently looking for ways to compete with the likes of McDonald’s for your fast food dollar. Coming up with new additions to the company’s Dollar Menu must be incredibly difficult these days. The company apparently didn’t spend a lot of time trying to develop something truly remarkable. Instead, it simply went cheap. The Daily Meal points out that the French Fry Burger is just one of the chain’s iconic hamburgers with four fries placed under the bun. It might cost only a dollar, but the same experience can be found if you get a Whopper combo meal. It may not be the most creative piece of culinary artwork to come down the fast food pipeline, but the new French Fry Burger won’t cost Burger King that much cash to make. Since the company is simply putting fries on a burger, there’s really no added cost to the restaurant involved in its creation.

 

So, which, if either, would you rather try?
