Why Burger King Is a Better Bet Than McDonald’s and Wendy’s
The world's largest ketchup supplier -- Heinz -- will no longer supply ketchup to the world's largest quick-service restaurant by sales , McDonald's (NYSE: MCD ) . This is because Bernardo Hees, the Vice Chairman of Burger King Worldwide (NYSE: BKW ) , has taken over as the CEO of Heinz. This ends four decades of association between the two giants and indicates how intense the burger wars could get in the future, as Burger King is no longer content with playing second fiddle to McDonald's.

Given that Burger King is transitioning to a new business model, investors could consider putting their money in this stock. In addition, it also pays out a dividend that yields 1.30%. While this might not be as attractive as McDonald's yield of 3.40%, it should be remembered that McDonald's is now a mature company and its comps growth has been slowing down. Burger King's comps could go up once it completes its transition to a franchise-based business model.
That's why investors looking for growth at a reasonable price in this space should definitely consider Burger King for their portfolios.
