Can you customize a Burger King Double Cheeseburger?

What is the best way to reheat a Burger King Double Cheeseburger?
You can reheat a Burger King Double Cheeseburger in short bursts in a microwave, but the bun may turn soft. For a better texture, separate the patty from the bun, warm them individually, then put the sandwich back together.
Is a Burger King Double Cheeseburger a healthy choice?
A Burger King Double Cheeseburger provides protein, but its refined bun, cheese and sauces make it better suited to an occasional fast-food meal than an everyday staple. Pairing it with vegetables and water instead of fried sides can make the meal lighter.
