The permanent change is an effort to deliver "real food" to customers, according to Burger King.

The company said about 90% of the "Keep it Real Meals" will be free of colors, flavors and preservatives from artificial sources.

Some celebrities are collaborating with Burger King to get the word out with special selections.

Nelly's real name will be used for the "Cornell Haynes Jr. Meal," which includes a Whopper, small fries and a small Sprite.
