In what could be a first for a global fast food outlet, Burger King is making a bold proclamation in support of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community with the launch of a specially packaged burger.
The "Be Your Way" project was created at a Burger King franchise in San Francisco, where a limited edition "Proud Whopper" sandwich was added to the menu to coincide with the city's annual pride festivities. According to press materials, guests who ordered the "Proud Whopper" found that the sandwich was the same as a classic Whooper, but came wrapped in a rainbow-colored wrapper with the inscription, "We are all the same inside."
Take a look at the "Proud Whopper" below, then scroll down to keep reading:
The burger's release was documented in a short "Be Your Way" film, which was released on Burger King's YouTube page and can be viewed at top.
We are always looking to engage our guests on a local level and be part of regionally relevant events,” said Kelly Gomez, Director of West Coast Field Marketing, Burger King West Division, in an email statement. Given that a Burger King franchise was perfectly situated along the San Francisco Pride Parade route, she added, "It was a natural fit to be involved and celebrate by giving something back to the community.”

We are all the same inside. (Apart from the hamsters.)
I KNEW the king was a homo......
I’ll let you know after I check the mail box for truck accessories.
Well when they arrive, donate them to charity. After that pic I feel a sudden urge to go straight ;)
BK is just following the JCP advertising model. Profits to tank in 3 — 2 — 1............................
I just lost my appetite for Whoppers. I’ll take my appetite elsewhere.....Chick-fil-A, probably.
What bothers me is that people are afraid to be open about the mechanics of homosexual intimacy. While repulsive, it is clearly obvious that such activity violates the laws of human biology and physiology. Most rational people can only come to the conclusion that homosexual acts are wrong on a variety of levels. I’ve noticed that practioners and people that condone this lifestyle scream,” That’s homophobic!” to even describe the act.
I guess it’s Chick-Fil-A and no fast food on Sundays.
Seriously.. I've often thought that folks who casually support
faggotry would recoil in disgust when faced with the graphic
disgusting reality of it. Couching it in warm fuzzy terms like
"love" and "acceptance" denies the fundamental disgusting sickness of it.
There, I've made my serious post for the week.
Always thought the Burger King guy looked gay.
Oh I agree. I did a whole writeup about it a couple years back.
The car companies show the two homos in the convertible alot. They never them stopping by the hospital to visit the rainbow haired twink on the AIDS ward though.
Funny that.
Most big corporations have willingly gone over to the left.
Fine, if they can marry, I don’t have a problem. The SCOTUS ruling was wrong, based on bad law like Dredd Scott. Heck the 14th through 17th Amendments are bad law. I don’t even mind if they want to advertise to
the LBGT community as a marketing group. I’m tired of all this fawning and in your face stuff, it is a vehicle to stick it to those who disagree and that is dead wrong. If this keeps going on along with the pressure to go against the conscience of those who disagree, people of all sides will get hurt. This is bullying.
We have not been into a Burger King since they used a RAINBOW WRAPPER over a year ago. The only way you can overcome PC is thru the wallet. I frankly don’t give a damn whether the BK corporation makes it or fails...but we have Wendys, Micky D’s and Hardees so who needs them
Freegards

They can have it their way. But I ain’t eating there no more.
Besides their burgers haven’t been that good for several years.
One more thing, I do work at Macy’s and they support this big time, I know. I know in 1964 via another Freeper, they headed the Republicans for Johnson campaign against Barry Goldwater. I tend to be a Goldwater type myself.
they make it so easy for us to avoid them.....when will they ever get a clue?
Yeah, I don't care if they fail either.
Right, I’ve been boycotting them for about 50 years anyway because I don’t eat ratburgers.
Aw-man, and after I’ve already quit going to burger king because of cold greasy, mushy food.
