The whopper freakout

[silentrunner]

In America Burger King is constantly showing commercialls about them not selling the whopper anymore and everybody gets all mad for some reson. Then there is a commercial were they start selling other fast food restaraunt's burgers. And everyone is all like "hey this is a big mac not a whopper" and stuff. But I am pretty shure that buying other restaraunt's food and selling it at your restaraunt is illeagal. So they obviously never sold big macs at Burger King. :-?

It's a commercial ad. It's not real. They're just trying to get your attention.

Obviously it worked.

[STEED]

I believe here in the UK moves are under way to ban these kind of adverts between 4PM to 9PM to prevent kids eating junk food.

In these commercials, I laugh at how some of these people seem so upset. It's just food. If somebody told me that they discontinued the Whopper, I can't see myself being confrontational with the manager or anything. I'd just say, OK, and move on. Pure comedy here, if this is not pre-planned.

I recommend the triple whopper.

His conversion to the dark side is almost complete young Padawan... :D

[Officerpuppy]

I would of taken the Bigmac and say something along the lines of, "Ok this is weird....but I'll take it" I wonder if the manger would come up to me and say something like, your not supposed to take it, thats why you came here and not there.

They can get rid of the Whooper but they'll never take my Baccon Deluxe Burger!!


And fries are smaller and thinner than chips. Chips are good, fries taste like cardboard.

Eg. KFC has chips while McD's has fries.

No, chips are the chunky sticks of goodness you find wrapped in newspaper, accompanied by a jumbo sausage and pot of curry sauce.

Fries are sissy chips, but unfortunatley there's no alternative when purchasing a burger.

Two out of three heart attacks can't be wrong!:up:Actually, the tripple whopper is not all that bad for you. One thing I learned from the movie Supersize it is the guy that ate Big Macs every day had good cholesterol, but the guys that ate the fries - bad news man!

The point is - don't eat the fries.

Also, don't drink the drink - its like opening up a bag a sugar and swallowing.

Yes, I have noticed that Burger King are pretty cheeky against McDonalds. And I can't help but wonder how the hell they can do it without getting their meat sued back to the farm. Remember an old add here in Sweden where they said: Sorry McDonalds, but we're the real Burger Kings! (or something like that). Surely this isn't acceptable according to law is it?

Have you seen the Jack in the Box commercials! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mx5DPi7GtcM&feature=related)?

[Biggles]

As a matter of fact, no. Jack in the Box is not a chain that is existing in Sweden (or as far as I know, any other part of Europe.)

I always thought an Aberdeen Angus was one of those big, hairy red cows. Now I learn that they are actually Highland cows.

Oh well, you learn something new every day.

Just a useless bit of trivia.

They still taste good though....

There was a good RC Cola ad that took the Mickey out of Coke and Pepsi, It was the one about the two deep sea fishing boats, that used coke and pepsi cans to "catch" consumers!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
