0:00What's up, Tampa Bay? This is Tampa Bay News today, bringing you the city's fastest updates on what is happening now. McDonald's just announced a new burger called the Big Arch, billed as their biggest and most flavorful yet. It stacks 2 quarter pound beef patties with 3 slices of melted white cheddar cheese, plus crispy onions, lettuce, pickles, and a special tangy sauce on a sesame and poppy seed bun. The burger hits menus at participating locations nationwide, starting March 3rd for a limited time. Prices looked to range from about $7 to $10 for the burger alone, or $11 to $14 for a combo with fries and a drink. This launch follows Burger King's recent tweaks to its classic Whopper, the first big changes in nearly 10 years. They upgraded the bun and mayo for better taste, and now servid in a box, all based on customer input. Burger King President Tom Curtis said they've modernized operations to focus on elevating core items like the Whopper without reinventing it.
