What's with the Burger King president making commercials about himself?

Really weird.

Watching basketball and there are multiple commercials of the Burger King president advertising how they've changed business strategies, but he makes sure he's front and center, like his face is going to make me head straight down there.

Does he not realize their food sucks even by fast food standards?

Their food used to be pretty good, but the last time I went, it was nauseating. The patties are tiny, the employees are retards who take forever and everything looks like it's been up someone's arse.

To show you how down to earth their brand is and how their CEO is a man of the people and reconstructed their garbage burger. Too bad it didn’t show him tossing a piece of fat on the fake broiler and pulling the patty from a microwave, which is how I think they do it.

Burger King is a dead POS brand.

They used to have the best ff burgers and chicken sandwich in the 90s. Also flame broiled gives it flavor. Now it's as bland as the rest.

No.

The King from your meme is mad, one of the commercials bragged about the new president firing him.

It was in response to the brain dead McDonalds CEO eating the Big Arch, looking like he hadn't eaten a burger since childhood.

Wendys is still the best social media troll of the FF brands. Burger King workers tend to be from the same syndicate that works at most Popeyes, which explains a lot.

A Burger King in a decent area with semi-competent employees is a beautiful thing.

Hot take: Burger King is good now

Their CEO is putting in work. Give it a try after their changes & see for yourself

BK was my jam, even long past it being a financial thing

Whataburger, 230 drive-thru a couple of breakfast taquitos they had chorizo for a time and a Whataburger with bacon and cheese God damn that was a great meal at the end of the night


Or taca cabana, the after hours at the westheimer was fire. And no one got shot, and if no one was looking they'd empty out the frozen margarita machine after hours

He's made them better. You should get the double for the proper meat to garnish to bun ratio.

The King playing in classic NFL moments were some great commercials.

Shouldn't his title be king, not president?

Kind of an interesting ad campaign but not interesting enough to make me even consider eating at Burger King

I think they’ve stepped it up a lot lately. Good quarterly results recently.

I dono, that commercial makes me wanna go. I appreciate the honesty of saying they’ve shite the bed for years.

I like the Wendy’s street ball nerd dunking fries in a frosty commercial too.
