42. Sometimes a combination

May 2017

Lately I've been using a Buy One/Get One coupon for a free Whopper at Burger King, but ordering it with lettuce, tomato and onion only.

Then I bring it home and switch out the bun for lower carb wheat bread, add avocado mayo, no-sugar relish, and organic ketchup.

Very good. I have no idea why I didn't think of this sooner. I was worried it wouldn't taste like a genuine Whopper. It does. Sometimes I bring the kit to the restaurant and eat in, especially during trips like a recent one to watch the Players Championship golf in Jacksonville.
