"  Recently, Burger King has been making headlines for both extreme bacon appreciation in Japan and for the announcement of a $750 million expansion of their menu \u2014 something they haven&amp;#039;t done in their 58-year history. More From Delish: Bizarre Bacon: 12 Weird Bacon Products You Won&amp;#039;t Believe Earlier this month, Burger King incited a media frenzy by debuting a bacon sundae in some American BK locations and by practically giving away bacon in Japanese locations. And we all know what happens when bacon is added to the equation: complete madness ensues. At Burger King Japan, they have been offering 15 additional strips of bacon on Whoppers for just 100 yen, or about $1.25 U.S. If that was offered in the U.S., we may be hearing about a bacon shortage. And that&amp;#039;s pretty much what happened at one BK, where a pig fan decided 15 strips just wasn&amp;#039;t enough to satisfy his extreme bacon craving. He ordered 1,050 slices of porkyness atop his burger, which is the equivalent of super-sizing his order 70 times. Don&amp;#039;t believe it&amp;#039;s real? The customer made a video showing himself attempting to take a bite. More From Delish: The Best Restaurants on Wheels If bacon makes you crazy, too, what about free food? Here in the U.S., Burger King just launched some traveling food trucks to allow everyone to get a sample of the new additions to the menu. There are 30 trucks roaming the country offering free tastes of crispy chicken strips; a salad of grilled chicken, apples, and cranberries with cider vinaigrette; fruit smoothies; and BK Frapp\u00E9s, icy coffee drinks that are made to order in mocha or caramel flavors. The rambling restaurants will reach 40 cities over the the next few months starting with Phoenix from April 18 to May 13 and New York City&amp;#039;s Central Park on Sunday, April 22. If you&amp;#039;re looking for a stop in your area, check out the BK Facebook page or visit www.bk.com. If you can&amp;#039;t wait for the truck to hit your hometown, samples are also being given away a more than 3,000 Burger King restaurants around the country. Do you want to try the new BK menu? Would you pay $1.25 to get 15 more strips of bacon on your burger? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
