About the Plant-based WHOPPER
The Burger King Plant-based WHOPPER costs £6.19 and carries 528 kcal. A flame-grilled plant-based burger, topped with tomatoes, fresh cut lettuce, vegan mayo, pickles, a swirl of ketchup, and sliced onions on a soft sesame seed bun. *Plant-based WHOPPER® is plant-based, however it is cooked on the same broiler as our beef WHOPPER® to deliver the same unique flame-grilled taste. It sits in the vegan and vegetarian section of the UK menu, alongside 2 other items.
A single serving carries 27g of protein, which is 54 percent of a day's reference intake, 24g of fat, 4.5g of it saturated, 2.5g of salt, 42 percent of the 6g daily maximum. Salt is the line to notice: 2.5g out of a 6g day, spent on a single item and before any fries join it.
Divide 528 kcal by its 278g and you get around 190 kcal per 100g. That makes it typical of the menu around it, so weight and satisfaction track each other here.
Against the rest of the vegan and vegetarian range it ranks as the most expensive item in the section. Nothing costs less than Halloumi Fries at £4.49, and nothing costs more.
On calories it lands 86 kcal above the vegan and vegetarian average of 442 kcal. If the count matters more than the craving, Vanilla Milkshake lands in the same place at 531 kcal.
The ingredient list carries no declared allergen at all. The cross contact list carries 9: gluten, wheat, milk, egg, soya, sesame, celery, mustard, sulphur dioxide. For a preference the first list is the one to read. For a genuine allergy it is the second, every time. Both lists come from the brand's own data against the fourteen allergens UK law requires restaurants to declare, and practice varies between branches, so confirm at the counter for anything serious.
If you are building a full order, Vegan Royale at £6.19 and Halloumi Fries at £4.49 sit in the same section and are the obvious companions. Add them up on the calorie calculator before ordering, or check the running cost against the full price list.
