Burger King sued over the size of its Whopper

Burger King is being sued by angry customers who claim their flagship Whopper burger is too small.

U.S. class-action suing customers accused Burger King of false advertising, claiming photos of the best-selling fast food product make it look bigger than it really is.

The case alleges that the photos depicts a burger with ingredients that «overfill the bun», making it appear 35% larger and contains more than double the amount of meat that is actually served.

In the Whopper case, Burger King argued that it was under no obligation to deliver hamburgers that looked «exactly like the picture.»
