BK Dinner Baskets

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

BK Dinner Baskets are a line of meal options offered by the international fast-food chain Burger King. Introduced in the 1990s, these meals were marketed as a higher-end option for dinner-time customers, and included a main dish, side, and dessert.

History[edit | edit source]

The BK Dinner Baskets were introduced in 1992 as part of Burger King's strategy to attract customers during the dinner hours. The concept was to offer a more complete meal option, similar to what one might have for dinner at home. The baskets were served after 4 p.m. and were delivered to the customers' tables, a departure from the traditional fast-food service model.

Menu Options[edit | edit source]

The BK Dinner Baskets offered a variety of main dishes, including the Whopper, Chicken Sandwich, Steak Sandwich, and Shrimp Basket. Each basket came with a side of fries or a baked potato, and a dessert option of either an apple pie or a brownie.

Marketing[edit | edit source]

The BK Dinner Baskets were heavily promoted through a series of television commercials and in-store promotions. The marketing campaign emphasized the quality and value of the meals, as well as the convenience of having a complete dinner option available at a fast-food restaurant.

Legacy[edit | edit source]

While the BK Dinner Baskets were eventually discontinued, they represented a significant shift in the fast-food industry's approach to meal options. The concept of offering more complete and higher-end meals has been adopted by many other fast-food chains in the years since.
