Back on topic, so I wonder how many of these people actually chose the Big Mac and didn't have their video shown by Burger King.

I mean WTF?! Maybe if BK helped them by getting the clean water or something instead of just givin' them a free burger.

LOL, they're not ethiopans or something, just romanians.

I met a bunch of romanians last summer.

nice people, but far from starving villagers.

I fully came into this thread expecting it to be about large women who couldn't get any.

Also, Atmosfear that is a pretty bold position for a free-market proponent to take. Other laissez-faire economists would probably call you a dirty socialist after talking about advertising like that.

It should be known that while Burger King's food is of overall better quality the Big Mac is fucking delicious. Also the double cheesburgers add big mac sauce are the shit. Other than that Mcdonalds is pretty much worthless(except Mcflurries) and Burger King is the shit.

I know my goddamned burgers.

Why not have a taste test with a bunch of gourmet raters- see who can not vomit the longest

In South Carolina the only people that work at BK are black crackheads or white trash, thus making all the food suck. Plus BK puts mayo on everything and mayo is disgusting. McD's $1 double cheeseburger is better than a Whopper imo.

Mustard>>>>>>mayo

Plus if you ask for no mayo they get an attitude with you and are more likely to spit in your food/do something gross to it.

um no.

um hello mustard is disgusting and mayo is the shit. I get my double cheeseburgers no mustard if i feel like dealing with the cashier. I'm glad burger king puts mayo on all their burgers, that's how it should be.

Mustard comes from seeds. Mayo comes from eggs. Which one smells worse when left in the sun ok shut up now.

But if you could reset everything and establish a standard so that mass-advertising was never an option, the money spent on advertising would be instead spent on improving the quality of the products, not the quality of the sales pitch.

Pretty much everything you're saying makes sense. I just don't understand the making mass-advertising never be an option thing. It seems similar to saying that if there was just no way to get across a vast ocean, then we wouldn't have gone to war in the past (and currently). For most wars I can't argue with that, but I don't see what is accomplished or what new idea gets across by saying that.

Are you basically saying that advertising does more bad than good as your point? If that's the case, then please explain more. I'm quite skeptical, but I haven't put a lot of thought specifically into advertising, so I would like to know more.

Eggs are eggs therefore they smell bad when left in the sun. Do you not eat eggs? And mustard may start out as a seed but ew look at it after its mustard. I mean it looks disgusting, a cross between vomit and urine.

I eat eggs when they are scrambled or cooked over hard. But for some reason the smell and taste of mayo makes me gag.

BK is absolute shit anyway. Whoppers aren't that great.

I hear they pour bleach on the big macs before letting them taste test.
