Finally BK catches on, adds Beer to Beverage List – Times Square NY
Hoping to expand their customer base by adding the drunk douchebag tourist element, the Burger King in Times Square New York is adding beer to the beverage list. Now for $7.99, a 21+ customer can purchase a whopper combo with Miller or Bud instead of soda ($2.00 more). From the Daily News:
Arnold Lyons, 58, of the Bronx, said he didn’t think it was a good idea because so many kids eat at Burger King “There’s already enough trouble without Burger King selling beer,” he said. “You don’t take your kids to a bar.”
Personally we think you should be taking your kids to the green market or pick up a piece of fruit then to serve them fastfood all the time. Beer slightly edges out soda regarding health levels, according to Natural Bias, only because we really don’t know what’s in highly processed beers like Bud Light or Miller High Life. I’d rather have a brew with my e coli burger any day but are they going to offer free refills?
