The Featured Share for December is… [drum roll please]… Burger King! Heralding from Miami circa 1954, the home of the Whopper is now the second largest fast food hamburger chain in the world. And it’s still growing!

Here are few quick facts to whet your appetite:

  • The Whopper was first introduced in 1957 at $0.37
  • Burger King heralded in the era of themed partnerships with their 1977 Star Wars glasses
  • Scour YouTube for early 80s Burger King commercials starring Buffy’s Sarah Michelle Geller
  • Does “your way” include beetroot or fried egg on your burger? These are just some of BK’s international options
  • In Australia, Burger King is known as Hungry Jack’s

Looking for a Whopper in a burger joint with more than the average chic? Try one of Burger King’s new Whopper Bars – where you can take “your way” to a whole new level. Choose from A.1. Sauce, smoked bacon, onions, and guacamole. Or choose from twenty-two designer Whopper options. Find out more here.

And for this whole month, you get $10 off Burger King stock at OneShare!
