Burger King's chicken nuggets aren't as popular as the ones at other fast food places. Uproxx.com recently ranked them 15th overall. So I guess the idea here is to just make them insanely SPICY and see what happens.

Burger King is now selling GHOST PEPPER nuggets for a limited time. You can already get them if you're a rewards member on their app. Everyone else will be able to order them next Monday.

In non-spicy news: They're also testing meatless IMPOSSIBLE nuggets at three locations starting next week. They'll only be available at select Burger Kings in Boston, Miami, and Des Moines, Iowa.
