Burger King's new Whopper is what fans have been asking for. What's on it?
Fans of Burger King Whoppers soon can sink their teeth into a new option. The BBQ Brisket Whopper hits menus Tuesday, July 15, for a limited time at participating Burger King restaurants nationwide, according to the Miami-based burger chain. A smoky twist on the original, the new sandwich features an all-beef patty piled with BBQ brisket, crispy onions, American cheese and a golden barbecue sauce, Burger King said in a news release. It's also topped with lettuce, tomato and mayo and served on a bun. Those with a smaller appetite can order the sandwich as a Whopper Jr., Burger King said. Pricing information wasn't immediately available. It's Burger King's latest iteration of its signature 'flame grilled' Whopper, which debuted in 1957. The BBQ Brisket burger is also the first creation to come out of the new 'Whopper by You' platform, which invites fans to dream up their very own Whopper creations. 'As the brand known for 'Have It Your Way,' we want to continue letting our Guests tell us what they want — and when it comes to our iconic Whopper sandwich, they have a lot of ideas,' Joel Yashinsky, chief marketing officer for Burger King US&C, said in the release. Last year, Burger King released a trio of limited-time Whopper sandwiches created by fans as part of its 'Million Dollar Whopper' contest, McClatchy News reported. The finalists included a fried pickle ranch Whopper, a maple bourbon Whopper and a Mexican street corn Whopper. Fans had a shot at a $1 million prize and saw their creations featured on menus nationwide, Burger King said. The new BBQ Brisket Whopper will be available for a limited time, though the burger chain didn't say for how long. Find your nearest Burger King here.

Ryan Lochte thanked his friends and family for their support amid his divorce from wife Kayla The Olympian said he had a "rough day" but will continue "to put one foot in front of the other and keep moving forward" Kayla confirmed the divorce in a post on Instagram on Wednesday, June 4Ryan Lochte is grateful for the people in his life as he navigates the end of his marriage. In a video message shared on his Instagram Stories on Thursday, June 5, the 40-year-old Olympian thanked his friends and family who reached out after his estranged wife Kayla publicly shared her decision to "end" their marriage a day earlier. "Just wanna say thank you to everyone that wrote a message, reached out to me," Lochte said in his Stories, while in the car with his daughter Liv Rae and son Caiden Zane. "Just open arms. It means a lot to me. Yesterday was a rough day for me, but, like always in life, you've got to put one foot in front of the other and keep moving forward." Lochte continued, saying, "And thats what I'm doing. To my second family that sent me this beautiful card, and a basket full of candy that now my son is eating," before Caiden jumped into the video to show a box of Whoppers. "Thank you guys, I love you guys." Lochte said before ending his video. The swimmer added, "Love y'all," in text over the video. Kayla, who shares Caiden, who turns 8 on June 8, as well as daughters Liv Rae (who turns 6 on June 17) and Georgia June, (who turns 2 on June 22) with Lochte, confirmed she's divorcing her husband of seven years in an Instagram post on Wednesday, June 4. 'Earlier this year, I made the hard decision to end my marriage after deep prayer and reflection,' Kayla began in her statement. 'I hold marriage in the highest regard, so this has been one of the most painful, revealing, and challenging seasons of my life. I've been hesitant to share until I could do so from a place of healing — not from fresh, open wounds.' Kayla said she wants to continue "living with transparency and authenticity," but also noted that she wants to protect "the parts of this journey that are private and unfolding in uncharted territory.' Court records obtained by PEOPLE show that Kayla filed for divorce on March 26. Lochte addressed the split after Kayla shared her post on Instagram, writing, 'I want to take a moment to acknowledge what Kayla shared. This past year has brought major changes for both of us as we've come to the difficult decision to end our marriage. I'm deeply grateful for the life we've built together and especially for the love we share for our three children."

A McDonald's Is Banning Dine-In Service For All Customers Under 21
A McDonald's location in Virginia is no longer allowing customers under 21 to dine in The policy change comes after reports of multiple fights and other "disrespectful" behavior from young customers Adults 21 and older will be allowed to dine in but have to ring a doorbell and show their IDA McDonald's in Virginia is setting an age restriction for customers. The fast food location is establishing a new policy that guests under the age of 21 cannot dine inside (or even enter) the restaurant. The Fairfax County McDonald's recently initiated the age limit after multiple fights among young people broke out in the dining area, NBC Washington reported. The home of the Big Mac is down the street from a high school. The news segment showed a sign taped to the McDonald's door reading 'Safety Notice Effective Immediately,' outlining the new arrangement. 'Due to repeated incidents of student violence, this McDonald's location is temporarily closed for dine-in service to anyone under 21 years of age. This decision was made to protect our staff, our guests, and our community,' the notice read. 'Adults — we are still here to serve you! Please ring the doorbell and a team member will assist you.' The note concluded by thanking customers for their 'understanding' while they work to keep the location 'safe and welcoming.' McDonald's management told NBC that adults who dine in the restaurant might be asked to show their IDs. 'These kids are off the chain,' a customer outside the location told the camera crew, describing the 'disrespect' she has seen from young people at the establishment. 'It's a company, it should be a safe environment for families to enjoy their food,' another customer said. The Fairfax County McDonald's Operator clarified in a statement to PEOPLE that all customers are still welcome to place orders via the Mobile App. "We love being part of the Edison community and we value each and every customer. We've enhanced our Franconia Road McDonald's security measures in an effort to create a safer environment for our staff and customers," the statement said. "This policy was developed in partnership with local school officials with oversight from local law enforcement. This serves as a temporary fix as we work towards a long-term solution for all. We thank our community for its support, understanding and patience."

Fellow chain restaurant Burger King found itself in hot water over allegedly misleading ads. The fast food spot is being sued by 19 plaintiffs across 13 states, who claim Whoppers are 35% smaller than what's shown in ads. On May 5, U.S. District Judge Roy K. Altman in Florida ruled that Burger King must face a 2022 lawsuit claiming it misled customers with ads that amplified the size of its burger beyond typical advertising exaggeration.
