Unlike the Deluxe, the original comes plain, allowing guests to customize toppings like ketchup, mustard, and pickles.
The Value Basket includes the ButterBurger® sandwich (single, double, or triple patty), a medium Crinkle Cut Fries (standard side), and a medium Fountain Drink (standard beverage).
