Description
Teeny tiny hamburgers from Burger King. I think they came in a three-pack. They were probably out in the mid- to late-80s.

I don't remember the dates, but I remember "Burger Buddies" and no body else does. The come in pairs. Two tiny burgers that were joined like twins. If has any pictures I would love to see them.

I ate these almost every day for lunch my senior year (1990-91). They were joined like twins. Why did they taste so much better than a plain old cheeseburger?

I have talked about burger buddies for years, and no one ever remembers them. They were so good!

I distinctly remember eating these around age 10. They were pretty much non-existent after circa 1990. I want them back as well. So many people don't remember. I think they tasted great because they were joined together, but you had to rip them apart to eath them. It's a very primal hunter-gatherer-like experience.

I used to love these when I was a child the only thing was this guy named Chris in my class was from LOng Island New York and he used to talk about hiw Burger King had copied off of White Castle in N.Y. and my uncle Tony who lived in Staten Island substantiated this assertion. I did ot care because I always got them with onion rings and Apple Slice(a soda that did not survive the 80's)

Just got back from Puerto Rico where Burger Buddies were being served in orders of either 2 or 6. They also now have chicken buddies and breakfast buddies. I was heartbroken when i got back home and realized Burger Buddies weren't being sold here. They were delicious and the sixpack came in it's own carrying case kinda like at White Castle. Just wrote a letter to BK asking them to bring them back. I'll keep you guys posted as to any response I get.

I remember these they were good!! Do you remember the commercials? Also it seems like years before the buddies they had little half dollar size burgers that came in a pack of 3 anyone remember these?

Ohh the burger buddies! I remember my parents would often stop by the BK drive through and pick me up the buddies! (They had to shut me up some how! lol) Oh the memories (especially the ones that are associated with food of the past)! I hope they bring them back!

I only remember these coming in packs of 2...although I probably could've eaten a dozen at a sitting I just LOVED 'em. Also fond of these was our German Shepard Brutus. It was a regular ritual of ours to take him through the drive thru and buy him his own Burger Buddies (he would eat one in one bite..it was a wonder to behold, really..at least when I was 10 it was) Yep, it would be SO boss if BK revived these!

I used to love Burger Buddies!! Does anyone remember the Breakfast Buddies, which were basically the tiny breakfast sandwiches that you could get with bacon or sausage. I must have been only 7 or 8 and my brother and I would beg my mom to take us there on the weekends just to get those.

I loved burger buddies, and like many have posted above it seems like when I mention them to friends or family no one knows what I am talking about. I remember them coming in a little cardboard trays with 3 little burgers on them. For some reason they did seemed to taste better but that could all be my imagination.

Thank you Christopher - I always remembered them as being called "Burger Bundles" as well and that they came packaged as 3. And like so many of you who have posted, I too find that no one else remembers these.

I loved these! I remember one time they had a special going where if you bought them they came with a minature 110 camera. I still have the camera!

SZA is right, they were definitely called Burger Bundles. They came three to a pack and there is a cool commercial from 1987 on youtube
