This probably isn't what the United Nations had in mind when it established the International Day of Peace: Burger King is asking McDonald's to join forces to create a "McWhopper."

In full-page newspaper ads Wednesday, Burger King says it's calling for a truce with McDonald's so that they can create a mashup of their most famous burgers — the Big Mac and the Whopper.

09/21/15, sounds like a great day to buy Chick-fil-A.

Great idea.

First good idea I’ve seen from either chain, in ten years.

What’s next?

Human sacrifice! Dogs and cats living together! Mass hysteria!

It’s probably a McDonalds burger that sells at Burger Kings whopping high prices.... McWhopper.

Ever try to "Have it your way" at any McDonalds?

Their eyes glazed over, all production stops, panic ensues.

I love Wendy’s. But for the money that BK and McDs charge, I can make two super awesome 1/2 lb. burgers with all the fixins’. Besides, none of the fast food joints offer bleu cheese on their burgers. I have GOT to have bleu cheese on my burgers.

Wendy’s or Smashburger.

Well, of course. But if you just want to grab a quick bite to eat while on the road, it will do. I'll take Steak 'n' Shake or Culver's as well.

When IO was a teenager, when time wasn't as precious, all of the time. I order a Quarter-pounder with cheese and "extra everything". It ensured I got a fresh-cooked burger every time.

McDonalds already has a “McWhopper”. It’s called a McKinley Mac. “Everything is big in Alaska”.

[AmericanCheeseFood]

Steak N Shake .. chili mac. .

Makes me miss MO lol!

There is a small chain in the Toronto area called Hero Certified Burger which once served something called a Blue Moon burger which had blue cheese and mushrooms. I don’t think they still serve it but they do offer blue cheese as an add on.

I’ll have to check it out next time I’m up in Burlington.
