The whopper freakout

silentrunner · 01-14-08, 05:22 PM

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.

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.
