The last time I ate Burger King was the 70’s. Heh.
The Whaler was good, indeed.

This is vulgarity posing as a moral statement.
The ad agency is probably somewhere like San Francisco and completely out of touch with regular Americans.
To: EdnaMode
I’d say that if they want to take on McD’s, they should try quality food, but that would be redundant.
I’d also say that I hadn’t been to one for years, but ... turns out the one in Richardson ain’t half bad. Maybe 3/4, but for fast food, it was sort of okay.
These days, I’d rather have the chikfila, or Cane’s, or WB, though.
(nom nom nom)
And they can keep the mental health issues. The only blue burger I want is a bacon & blue (cheese) burger.

I always figured “New Coke” was planned to let them switch to corn syrup from real sugar.
when they reintroduced “Original Coke” they made the switch to corn syrup.

One of my first thoughts after BK decided to chase away responsible parents with their inane ideas for meal labeling.
Didn't the "Herb" campaign get pulled after one weekend, or thereabouts?
To: Do_Tar
Okay. I finished the rest of the comments.
I guess I’m not the only one with a “conspiracy theory”.

Really? A profanity based meal? What genius came up with that? Probably the same one who came up with “You bet your Ass per cream. “
To: EdnaMode
What, no Orange Man Bad Meal?

Is this for real?! Are they trying to kill the brand? BurgG has had some idiotic and hurtful ads in recent years, but this is really hurtful to the brand.

Looks like they stole the Whataburger logo on the left hand box. Will they be sued for copyright infringement?

I remember Herb, but I never saw him (except on TV). I thought that campaign was stupid when it first started.

The entire country was up in arms DEMANDING the return of their signature product.
And then, it didn’t even make the come back. Somehow, the taste was different. Whether they replaced sugar with HFCS, or what, I don’t know, but “original Coke” didn’t taste the same when it “came back”.

The older I get, the more I understand the character Michael Douglas was playing in that movie.

I’m not happy with their freaky scary King character so much so, I refuse to patronize the business.

It truly was. I haven’t seen it in years but I need to remedy that.
