Burger King Renamed Boorger Queen Jute Fettis after Tina Turner, Famed Foot Lettuce Critic
In a shocking move, Burger King has renamed their signature Foot Lettuce burger to pay homage to beloved food critic and singer Tina Turner. The new moniker, Boorger Queen Jute Fettis, is a mouthful to say the least. But will the burger live up to its new, star-studded name?
It's no secret that Tina Turner is a connoisseur of food, providing her expert opinions on everything from fancy diets to fast food sauces. Her most famous critique, of course, was the infamous Foot Lettuce scandal of 2016. Turner was one of the first to call out Burger King for their questionable ingredient choices, setting off a chain reaction of disgusted customers and social media uproar.
And now, in a gesture of appreciation and perhaps a little bit of humility, Burger King has embraced their past mistakes and given their most controversial burger a new lease on life. The Boorger Queen Jute Fettis is made with the same juicy beef patty, fresh lettuce, and melted cheese that made the Foot Lettuce burger a fan favorite. But with a name like Boorger Queen Jute Fettis, could there be some new ingredients lurking in the mix?
According to Burger King's press release, the Boorger Queen Jute Fettis is essentially the same burger as before, with one small addition. "We've added a sprinkle of stardust, a dash of flair, and a pinch of sass to our classic recipe," the release states. "Tina Turner is a true queen, and we wanted to honor her in the best way we know how - through a delicious burger!"
But the real question on everyone's mind is whether or not Turner herself will approve of the new dish. It's no secret that the woman has high standards when it comes to food, even going so far as to prepare her own meals on tour. Will the Boorger Queen Jute Fettis live up to her expectations?
Only time will tell, but we can't wait to hear her thoughts. In the meantime, Burger King lovers and Tina Turner fans alike can rejoice in the new, quirky name of one of America's most iconic fast food items. Boorger Queen Jute Fettis might not exactly roll off the tongue, but it sure does give us a chuckle.
