Burger King Delivers of the Day: Because America is clearly not get fat fast enough, Burger King has begun testing home delivery at a handful of restaurants in the Washington, D.C. area.
The success of the program will eventually lead to a nationwide rollout.
A few restrictions apply: Customers must live within a 10-minute drive from a BK location, and a $2 delivery charge will be tacked on to orders below the minimum total of $8 to $10.
Every whopper and fries will be hand-delivered to your door within 30 minutes or less using “new delivery packaging technology” engineered to keep your food warm from the grill to your gullet. (So that’s what NASA’s been up to since they scrubbed the Space Shuttle program!)
This isn’t Burger King’s first foray into stay-on-your-couch convenience: Internationally, the chain has been in the delivery business for some time.
“Burger King has had great success with it all across the globe including in Mexico, Turkey, Brazil, Columbia and Peru,” said spokeswoman Kristen Hauser. “e are currently testing the service to bring this convenience to the United States, starting with just a few restaurants in the DC area.”
Breakfast food will not be available for delivery, so what’s even the point of this if you ask me.
