Well played, Burger King.
Adding to a growing list of totally amazing pranks, the fast food restaurant offered patrons in San Francisco a special menu item on Gay Pride Parade day last week: a Proud Whopper.
The burger was placed in a rainbow wrapper that read, "We are all the same inside" and unveiled to customers in a way that made it seem like something brand new (even though the only difference was the packaging).
The chain then filmed various reactions to the Proud Whopper, from those in disdain ("I just don't really believe in the homosexual lifestyle") to those in confusion ("Do gay people even eat fast food?") to those who believe it's "about time" such an alternative was made available.
Watch the fun/interesting/revealing footage now:
Burger King Introduces "Proud Whopper"
Talk about some delicious fatty food for thought, huh?
It might feel like homecooking in a bowl, but a chicken pot pie from KFC is a whopping 790 calories and 45 grams of fat.
