RE: BK veggie burger

["Faith M. Senie" <fms@xxxxxxxxx>]

Heh, I think Subway might have something to say about the "first veggie 
burger available nationally at a quick service restaurant chain" line...

10g of fat is still horrendous, though I admit it beats 39 hands 
down...  Is that for the entire sandwich (including low-fat mayo), or just 
for the veggie burger itself, do you know?
