First up, the Chicken Whopper (no, I did not &#8220;cluck&#8221; to get my sandwich). It comes with a sizeable piece of chicken, but it tastes rather bland. Rather than slathering mayonnaise on the bun, BK might try giving the chicken a little spice with some marinade.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; I also tried their tacos. You get two for 99&cent; on their new Wendy&#8217;s-inspired 99&cent; menu. The hard shells were stale, but that&#8217;s not much of a surprise since there&#8217;s probably not much call for them; but the shells had a nice taste, more like restaurant chips than Taco Bell&#8217;s corn taste.  Interestingly, hot sauce is already provided, mixed into the lettuce and cheese.  The shells might taste nice, but the beef and beans are like a paste.  Not bad, but probably not a big draw.\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; I had the opportunity to try some items on Burger King&#8217;s new menu.
