The secret menu also contains many more delicious and refreshing items that are sure to knock your socks off! Plain coffee and regular menu items get boring after a while so why not try something new and different? If you're worried about the sugar overload then we recommend you cut the syrups and drizzle in half to still enjoy the same flavor but with less sugar. It will still be a refreshing and enjoyable drink but your body will thank you for the reduced sugars and that is a win-win situation!

Even though it is my favorite, I do not order it every single time because it is somewhat of a pain for the baristas to make it. It isn't all that difficult to make however it does take quite a bit longer to make than the average Starbucks beverage.

Veggie Whopper | Burger King

The Whopper is the most popular burger at Burger King. Everybody knows that. But did you know that you can also order the Whopper as a Veggie Whopper with no meat? If you are a vegetarian, or are looking to stay away from fast food meat, the Veggie Whopper is a perfect option for you. Instead of the standard meat patty, the sandwich comes with a fresh veggie patty to go along with the tomatoes, lettuce, sauce and buns. It is a pretty simple switch but it is nice to see that Burger King is making an attempt to provide options for non-meat eaters. 

Curious to see what else the Secret Menu at BK contains? You might be pleasantly surprised at the plethora of amazing food options that are available at Burger King but are not listed on their standard menu.

Rodeo Burger | Burger King

The Rodeo Burger off the Secret Menu at Burger King is perfect for those who think the standard cheeseburger is too plain and boring. The Rodeo Burger is essentially a simple cheeseburger on steroids. It's what real men eat while little boys eat cheeseburgers.

The Rodeo Burger features a burger patty, cheese, (hold on to your hat, this is where it gets crazy), 3-4 crunch onion rings, and sweet, tangy barbecue sauce. If you love barbecue food or feel like living life on the edge, then you should definitely try the Rodeo Burger at least once in the lifetime.

Suicide Burger | Burger King

Does the name Suicide Burger scare you? Don't worry, you are not alone. But the actual burger off Burger King's Secret Menu is much less scary than its name portrays. The reason it is called the Suicide Burger is because it is so large and filling that eating the whole thing in one seating results in a feeling that you very well might explode and well, die.  With four patties, four slices of cheese, and four slices of bacon, the Suicide Burger from Burger King means business and is not for the faint of heart. You should only order this burger if you are truly starving or if you are sharing it with a friend or three.

The Suicide Burger is not the only item listed on BK's Secret Menu. Curious to see what else it contains? There are a plethora of other burgers, sandwiches, shakes, fries, and more! If you're curious, you should certainly check out the rest of Burger King's Secret Menu.
