Customers Claim Burger King's Halloween Whopper Causing Green Poop........




MIAMI (CBSMiami) — Have you taken on a walk on the dark side yet with Burger King's A1 Halloween Whopper?

If you have, you may have noticed that while the seasonal black-bunned burger goes in one color, it may come out another.

According to some folks who have downed the black-colored bun, there is an unexpected side effect, they're passing green poop after eating their meal.

Social media is lighting up with folks using the hashtag #greenpoop.

The Miami-based chain unveiled the Halloween Whopper last month and said the bun's black color comes from the A1 steak sauce.

A Burger King representative said the bun contains less than 1-percent food dye, and the dyes "are commonly used in the industry and approved by the Food and Drug Administration." The company did not state whether the bun contains Green #3, a food dye known to cause green-colored stool.

CBSMiami.com has requested a statement from Burger King and we are waiting an official company response.

In the meantime, #GreenPoop is trending and the company is certainly getting a lot of publicity.

Ya this is something I am going to worry about. Isn't there something about looking at your poop on that test they give to people to find out if they are nuts?

 

[RLS]

If not for their own publicity why is this even a story?

 

[Stomper]

My son has personally confirmed this for himself.... kids are dumb.

Always look before you flush...
You may have dropped your wallet.

 

[Stomper]

HA HA.... Plop-plop fizz-fizz, guess where your wallet is!

 

[Medic!]

I'm Irish. We always poop green.

 

[B5Ben]

If you eat something that looks like that, green might be the best possible scenario

 

[FA9]

Try their red velvet shake. And don't freak out when you wipe...

 

[Just Jim]

It's an evil leftist plot to make us all go green

Guess what happens when you eat a lot of spinach

Guess what happens when you eat a lot of spinach

Spinach gives you kidney stones if you eat too much

 

[Diamondback]

Gives the line, "Oh no, you did NOT shoot that green sh*t at me!" a whole new meaning... LOL

 

[Stomper]

I'm Irish. We always poop green.

Irish tongues are green too, 'cuz they're always talkin' "poop"!

At a tavern one night my brother once dropped a Bladder infection pill in his buddies Beer. This pill had the effect of tuning ones pee a perfect Fluorescent Orange. About an hour later they were all on the floor laughing as the scream came from the head. Where the drinking buddy had gone to go pee.

 

[Stomper]

Was it because of orange pee, or him realizing he forgot to sneak his manhood from his wife's purse before going out?

 

[xlsbob]

I had those pills once for a kidney stone, went from whizzing blood to neon orange the next morning. Scared the crap out of me too

 

[bolus]

Eat colored crap, get colored crap. I dont see why people are surprised

Eat colored crap, get colored crap. I dont see why people are surprised

I know, right? It's analogous to eat too much fattening food, get fat. Then complain you can't lose weight.

 

[No_Regerts]

I will eat this and report back.

On another note, I was the only kid in geology class "rocks for jocks" who laughed uncontrollably when we learned about green schist.
