This is the best summary I could come up with:
The lawsuit accuses the fast food giant of misleading customers by showing the burger with a meatier patty and ingredients that "overflow over the bun".
The class action lawsuit against Burger King alleged that the Whopper was made to look 35% larger, with more than double the amount of meat compared to what was actually served to customers.
Lawyer Anthony Russo, who represents the plaintiffs, did not immediately respond to a BBC request for comment.
Earlier this year, Taco Bell was sued in the US for selling pizzas and wraps that allegedly contained half the filling that was advertised.
Last year, a man in New York proposed a class-action lawsuit against McDonald's and Wendy's, in which he accused the two companies of unfair and deceptive trade practices.
The lawsuit alleged that McDonald's and Wendy's burgers in marketing materials were at least 15% larger than they were in real life.
The original article contains 328 words, the summary contains 149 words. Saved 55%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
