The Left-Handed Whopper - 1998.
A Left-Handed Whopper specially designed for the left-handed. On 1st April 1998 Burger King published a full page advertisement in an American newspaper announcing the introduction of a new item to their menu. The Left-handed whopper has all condiments rotated 180 degrees thereby redistributing the weight of the sandwich so that the bulk of the condiments will skew to the left thereby reducing the amount of lettuce and other toppings from spilling out the right side of the burger. Americas most preferred premium hamburger will feature the trademark build of lettuce tomato onions pickles mayonnaise ketchup and 4-ounce flame broiled hamburger patty but the newly designed sandwich has been re-engineered to fit more comfortably in the left hand.
