What did I think? I received a $25 Gift Card to sample some of the new menu items, so we headed out to our local BK (which is just a mile from my house!) and I tried the NEW Chicken Strips. (Picture above) I gotta say, I wasn't expecting much.. and that's not got anything to do personally with BK, but more of my lowered expectations of Chicken Fingers from Fast Food restaurants nowadays! I actually covered a topic about how almost all of the restaurants here lately offer smaller and tinier chicken, so bad that it really wouldn't fill up a sandwich unless you just got lucky! Read that post I wrote last August here: 1caseycolette.blogspot.com/2011/08/mystery-of-shrinking-chicken-finger

I am proud to say BK served us huge chicken fingers and they were exceptionally tasty too!
I also tried the new strawberry smoothie. Just so you know, smoothies can be another pet peeve of mine. Its absurd in my humble opinion that someone would charge up to $4-5 for a smoothie. They contain little to no juice and mostly ice. I know they cannot be that expensive to make. I am proud to say BK is not intent on ripping you off, as they seem to be aware of this ever growing problem, their smoothie was not only delicious but affordable at just a few dollars (2 and some change to be exact!)

I was also fortunate enough to get to try their new Mocha Frappe and the new fried chicken finger honey mustard wrap as well!
Both of which were excellent and the kids had no complaints on either! I love that Burger King is always tasty and fresh and you know what to expect. No long car lines, and other things like that.. if you know what I mean...
