Burger King Veggie Burger
The Burger King Veggie Burger, introduced in March of 2002, was the first vegetarian burger sold at any nationwide burger chain.
The flame-broiled "burger" is made from grains and vegetables (not soy), and is served on a sesame seed roll with shredded lettuce, sliced tomato and reduced-fat mayonnaise.
The burger has 330 calories, ten grams of fat, just two of them saturated, 760 milligrams of sodium and four grams of fiber. That is less saturated fat than the chain's original Hamburger, which contains seven grams of fat. It is also less than a Burger King Broiler Chicken Sandwich without mayonnaise, which contains 390 calories. It has far fewer caloires than a Burger King Broiler with mayonnaise -- 550 calories.
An added bonus: Since reduced-fat mayonnaise comes on the Veggie Burger, you can also request the reduced fat mayonnaise on any Burger King sandwich.
