    It looks like the bun was also flame broiled. I'd eat it.

    And get sued by McDonald’s [​IMG]

    You could call it the Big Wop O’ Lantern but then you’d upset the Italians

    What the hell is broiled anyway?

    What exactly do you do to broil something?

    The broiler in my oven is high heat from above whatever I am cooking.....but that bun from Burger King looks food dyed...broiled would look different and not be necessarily uniform in color.

    Food dyes are no good for people.

    Not even real food. Food coloring on the bun, processed cheese product, some meat concoction....it isn't food!

    I didn't know prior to this thread that we had Burger King here.
    I won't be trying the Halloween Whopper though.

    That’s good we wouldn’t want any racist controversies connected with Burger King [​IMG]

    Burger King has yanked an ad featuring the R&B superstar Mary J Blige singing the praises of the fast-food chain's new chicken snack wraps after critics in the African-American community complained it was playing off racist stereotypes.

    In particular Black Enterprise columnist Janell Hazelwood wrote "this commercial reminds us that stereotypes of dancing, singing, and chicken-lovin’ black people, still remains prevalent in the hearts and minds of white advertisers."

    Would it have been ok if they were promoting something other than chicken?

    I think rice is the main thing for Asians. I don't they feel awkward or self-conscious about it though. I suspect that if you asked most Asians about it, they'd say, "Yeah, Asian people eat a lot of rice".

    I read someone saying theirs turned neon green.

    Rumor has it, it's the same dye they put in black licorice.

    I'd rather eat 1/2 a bag of black licorice than that whopper to see what happens, lol.

    i can't guarantee that i'll never eat one. just that i'm not going to go looking for a burger king to do so. (i don't even know where a burger king, in this town, reno nv, is) there is a place in my town, not a burger king, called fat burger, that is unabashedly what the name implies. far as i know it isn't a franchise. (no it isn't an orphaned remnant of the fat boy franchise as far as i know either. only ever saw one of those when i was up in oregon.) though it could be and i not know it. the burger patties are huge, at least a quarter pound each (possibly closer to half a pound), and you can have up to three of them in one bun. they're high fat content, but at least they taste like real dead cow, not 50/50 textured soy extender, which is what you get in just about every fast food franchise that i know of. not exactly marketed to the health conscious, but amusing, and i only tried it once.

    Remember the Nazis propaganda films of the 1930s how they depicted Jews as being shiftless with big noses, well blacks in America went through the same thing only we were depicted as lazy, with big lips, singing and dancing, while eating chicken and watermelon with great relish
