Is the Whopper Jr. Shrinking?
I purchased a Burger King Whopper Jr, last month and it looked a lot smaller than I remembered. I bought one today and it could fit inside the palm of my hand and I knew it was not my imagination. I asked at 2 Virginia locations and the employees said they did not know.
The question was brought up online on Reddit but there were no definitive answers The Jr. now looks the same size as a sausage biscuit yet the price has increased. Once it was on the dollar menu in Virginia Burger King restaurants for a limited time.

The proof is in the pictures
Now the Whopper Jr. costs $2.19 and appears to be shrinking. The number of calories is 370 and if I could recall what this number was years ago I would have an answer. I buy sunflower seeds in various brands like Fritoes or Lance in-+ bags that are 2 for $1.00 or $1.19. I recall decades ago there were 260 calories in a bag then it dropped to 220 and now 160.
This tells me there is less of the product in the bag and my eyes do not deceive me about the Whopper Jr.I asked a few members of my family who all said the burger looked a lot smaller but they were not certain.
