cheers to you cheers to I love cheers I love Burgers would you be willing to cut someone
out of your life for a Whopper was a Whopper the launch pad for a famous comedian well let's
find out what the top 10 untold truths of the Burger King Whopper the Whopper hacked Google
home devices let me know what you recover from his computer has he transmitted the lists he
said to who Burger King has had some interesting marketing campaigns over the years if you follow
the Mantra that any publicity is good publicity then BK has been wildly successful in their
campaigns one campaign that had a mixed response was the campaign that took advantage of Google
home and Google devices this campaign resulted in some interesting and very false information about
their Whopper being released to the public it all started with a 15 second commercial that aired
on major networks in the commercial a Burger King employee holds up a whopper sandwich and says Okay
Google what is the Whopper burger this of course would set off the Google Device places people had
set up in their homes the devices would list out all of the Whopper ingredients from the Burger's
Wikipedia page in response to this several people went on to Wikipedia to make a few of their own
edits to the whopper's information page they got creative and added some wild claims and unsettling
ingredients like toenail clippings and cyanide to the sandwiches list of ingredients and description
this got Burger King and the Whopper in particular quite a bit of attention if the goal was to get
people talking about the sandwich and bringing it into the public eye then taking advantage of
Google's voice command capabilities was a huge success the Whopper for breakfast when breakfast
had a hold on the fast food world and not all in a good way Burger King jumped into The Fray with
an idea called burgers at breakfast and this interesting move in 2014 the Whopper made its
way onto the breakfast menu at select Burger King locations on the updated breakfast menu customers
could find the Whopper including its many different versions and variations Burgers chicken
and french fries around the same time main rival McDonald's was handing out free coffee and playing
around with longer breakfast times and places like Taco Bell and KFC who normally have no breakfast
affiliations were debuting their own unique takes on breakfast Cuisine like a waffle taco and a
waffle chicken sandwich it was a unique approach to the fast food breakfast frenzy the world seemed
to be going through at the time the horse Whopper Scandal just stick to the official statement and
soon this will all be behind you there have been some concerning and scandalous pieces of news that
have come out in relation to big fast food chains like when news broke that Subway bread shared an
ingredient with things like yoga mats or when Taco Bell was sued claiming their taco meat couldn't
legally be called beef well Burger King and its Star menu item the Whopper are no exception
when it comes to scandalous news in 2013 BK made headlines in the UK for all the wrong reasons a
meat production plant in Ireland was contaminated with horse meat affecting many retailers and
restaurants Burger King found itself in the midst of the drama because this was the same plant that
provided Burger King with its hamburger meat for their UK restaurants Burger King tested its
restaurants and yes they did find Trace Amounts of horse DNA thankfully VK pulled all the burgers
from the restaurant even after having tested negative but this didn't stop Burger King from
taking some serious precautions in response to this unexpected news Burger King removed
the Irish supplier from their supplier list and and they replaced them with suppliers in Germany
and Italy Burger King wasn't the only one to be disturbed and moved to action by the contamination
scare other retailers left this supplier for a new one and of course consumers became more skeptical
and concerned about their food sources and who can blame them the left-handed Whopper finally
nothing in 1998 Burger King decided it was time to do something for all 1.4 million of
their left-handed customers they had filing into their restaurants on a regular basis so what did
they do they released the left-handed Whopper and what exactly was the science used to make
this happen Burger King simply rotated all the burger fixings and condiments on the burger by
180 degrees left-handed people everywhere rejoiced and in case you're wondering yes this was an April
Fool's Day prank but that didn't stop people from rushing to restaurants to get themselves a
left-handed Whopper and let's not forget about all the right-handed people who had
to be sure their order was the original and oriented in the direction they needed it was
a clever piece of marketing that got VK some attention and showed love to the left-handed
people everywhere the Whopper wasn't the Whopper in San Antonio you gotta be kidding me
you gotta be kidding me in San Antonio Texas the term Whopper belonged to someone else a
place called Whopper burger and no this restaurant had nothing to do with the Burger King we all know
today the existence of Whopper burger made life for Burger King in the San Antonio area a little
more complicated than usual because Whopper burger held the rights for the term Whopper
in relation to burgers this meant Burger King couldn't use this term at all in the region not
on their menu and not in their ads so Burger King had to come up with another way to sell
the Whopper in San Antonio so VK decided to call their Whopper the deluxe burger this of course
doesn't have the same ring to it or deliver the same appeal that the name waffer does but what
could the home of the Whopper do not too much the situation was eventually resolved on a sad note
when the restaurant Whopper burger was sold by the late owner's Widow to the same company that owned
Burger King at the time they this gave Burger King the ability to have their Whopper on the
menu and in their ads everywhere they wanted first time here well become an official babbletopper by
taking a quick second to hit that subscribe button thanks now more Whopper exploits losing friends
over the Whopper you and I we're actually never friends Yes you heard that right the Whopper was
used to destroy thousands of friendships and another clever marketing scheme the Whopper
was used as an incentive for people to end their friendships how did this work well you could get
a free whopper sandwich if you unfriended 10 of your Facebook friends this campaign was named the
Whopper sacrifice through the Whopper sacrifice Facebook app Burger King gave participants a
coupon for every 10 friends they unfriended while using the app the app would say things like you
liked John you love the Whopper while exiting your former friends oh and the app would also send a
notification occasion to the person unfriended to let them know that they were unfriended for
a Whopper the Whopper sacrifice ended when 233 906 people had been unfriended that's an awful
lot of friendships ended for the sake of a free Burger the Whopper was here first there's no one
on this planet that can stop me with McDonald's being the fast food giant that it is it wouldn't
be surprising to sink the Big Mac was the first Burger to hit the market but that isn't the case
at all while the original McDonald's had already been in operation for over a decade Burger King
made its debut in 1954 and just a few short years later they introduced the Whopper to their menu
the Whopper was released in 1957 and the Big Mac only came out in 1968. the Whopper predates the
Big Mac by more than 10 years it wasn't even the first big burger out there it was developed to
compete with a local chain located near one of the original burger King restaurants the name
came about to emphasize the size and value as in it's a Whopper of a burger this became the
central marketing component for Burger King and it continues to be its best seller it
even outsells the Big Mac when it first came out it was available for 37 cents for the time this
was a hefty price but it matched the size of the burger even by today's standards the price for the
sandwich can be considered more than the average Burger but with a name like the Whopper this is
not your average Burger oops the Whopper Junior was an accident accidents happen and sometimes
good things come from them good things like the Whopper Junior which has continued to be a
long-standing menu item for the Burger King chain and it has even inspired Whopper Jr spin-offs
like the chicken Whopper Junior but what was the accident that led to the creation of this smaller
version of the classic burger well it all began with poor timing for a new Burger King restaurant
opening when a new Burger King Was preparing for its grand opening in Puerto Rico the owner Luis
orenas Perez discovered that the molds needed for the whopper-sized burger buns hadn't arrived so
Perez improvised with standard sized burger buns and dubbed the creation the Whopper Junior from
then on the Whopper Junior made its way to become a regular part of the BK menu and of course Perez
was commended for his work by being inducted into the Burger King Hall of Fame he was even
promoted to the position of CEO for Burger King's Puerto Rico parent company Caribbean restaurants
no doubt what started out as bad timing and probably quite a bit of stress for this new
owner turned into a whole lot of good for the company and the creative and inventive Perez the
Whoppers many styles and looks that's gonna make history from a black burger bun to angry sauce the
Whopper like any good celebrity has reinvented itself a number of times since its beginning of
course there's the Whopper Junior but then there's also Whopper sandwiches available that includes
simple upgrades in comparison to the original like the number of beef patties used in the
double whopper or the triple Whopper they've even had a chicken Whopper and a Junior Chicken Whopper
for all the vegetarians and vegans out there there's a meatless Whopper option dubbed The
Impossible Whopper aptly named since it's made with the impossible Foods meat alternative the
Whoppers also hopped up on the latest pop culture Trends sponsored events and promoted social change
the Whopper regularly gets shaken up and dressed up in different ways to communicate the Brand's
stance on social issues like the proud Whopper to show their support for the lgbtq plus Community
for Halloween they released the Halloween Whopper that first came out in 2015. I want my Whopper the
Halloween Burger was the classic Whopper on black burger buns made with A1 steak sauce to achieve
the Buns color instead of the classic looking burger bun they've also done the Angry Whopper
that featured jalapeno peppers and a spicy sauce dubbed angry sauce there's no doubt that Burger
King will continue to use their famous whopper sandwich to stay relevant in the Publix eye the
Whopper helped Ellen get her break you leave the bathroom to go back to your table I'm full I ate
in the bathroom every big star has to get started somewhere and for comedians getting started in the
comedy World Isn't Easy and it wasn't easy for well-known comedians like Ellen DeGeneres either
in her early days she was working multiple jobs to make ends meet while trying to get her big break
her early gigs were unique and done in a way that most people wouldn't have even seen coming she
showed up with a Whopper meal complete with fries and a shake she'd walk up on stage and tell her
audience that she hadn't eaten all day so she'd stop to pick up a meal on her way there she'd
then start her performance while also starting to dig into her Whopper meal she'd start to set up
her joke and then she would hold up a finger and take a bite of her food saying things like that's
good right that's better she did this on repeat while the audience sat there and waited for her
to begin her routine when she was done with her meal she'd walk off the stage her whole comedy
routine show was sitting on stage eating her food and saying things like what I wanted to talk about
was and never getting any further into her joke people loved it she started getting more gigs from
this launching her into stardom and becoming a household name who would have thought the Whopper
would play such a central role in someone's big break into comedy it's pretty unlikely
that Burger King could have seen that coming stick around just tap or click another great
