And this is something that has been hyped up not just for days, not for weeks, but for months,” Jurasek said. “As a matter of fact, they’re interviewing newborn babies right now who are saying they were indeed having visions of the Impossible Whopper while still in the womb.

It’s inventive [and] it tastes pretty good …”
