Burger King proposes making 'McWhopper' with McDonald's for World Peace
Yum! Would you buy?




Burger King has proposed to McDonald’s that the two fast-food chains come together to make “The McWhopper.”

In a full-page advertisement published Wednesday in the Chicago Tribune and The New York Times, Miami-based Burger King says the two rivals should call a one-day cease-fire in the “burger wars” to make a sandwich that combines elements of the Big Mac and the Whopper, the two chains’ signature burgers.

Burger King says the McWhopper would be sold for one day at a pop-up store in Atlanta, and sales would benefit Peace One Day, a non-profit organization campaigning to raise awareness of the United Nations-recognized Peace Day of Sept. 21.

“Let’s make history and generate a lot of noise around Peace Day. If they say no, we’ll hopefully have, at the very least, raised much-needed financial support and consciousness for the great cause that is Peace One Day,” Fernando Machado, senior vice president for global brand management at Burger King, said in a statement.

McDonald’s CEO Steve Easterbrook responded to Burger King via a public letter, shared on social media, that McDonald’s executives “love the intention but think our two brands could do something bigger to make a difference.”

He did not directly address if McDonald’s would commit to the idea of a making a McWhopper.


“We commit to raise awareness worldwide, perhaps you’ll join us in a meaningful global effort?” Easterbrook said in the response, which was provided by McDonald’s. “And every day, let's acknowledge that between us there is simply a friendly business competition and certainly not the unequaled circumstances of the real pain and suffering of war.”

Easterbrook added, “P.S. A simple phone call will do next time.”

Burger King might not be the first to come up with the idea of the Big Mac/Whopper mashup. The YouTube food critic Daymon Patterson combined the two burgers for a video in June and gave the Franken burger a rave review.

The McDonald's CEO was sort of a cock about it - but I suppose I see how he felt put on the spot. Exciting development toward world peace though, am I right?

I think McD's is sneering down its nose at BK. And then being a passive-aggressive douche about the whole thing. Oh, we're a multi billion-dollar global company that straddles the Earth like a god and we only slow down to wait for you to assume prime screwing position, so that we may pound you into submission on the daily, you silly English hamburger stand. Why don't you just offer us a dirty wrapper to admire in much the same way that a young child with no art in its soul would offer a "painting" to its parents to be displayed above the mantle at home? Come back when you figure out what french fries are. Better yet, just call us when you think you have something to offer. Maggots.

both have pts. I think he'd simply meant he DID INDEED feel put on the spot, which - as a CEO going straight to a FB feed to offer up the info/request - w/o prior contact - is poor form, it's Scott Pioli level business.

What I did is very similar. Just pan fried instead of deep fried.

LOL and idiots on football.

I might get killed but least know I helped football by you gone as well.

Hard to understand how a person that had an addiction can make fun of those that still do unless you overcame for others and not yourself.

Thought age would help but you seem to think the real world is online only.

Actually liked you better as a fat **** but that was a low bar as thinking you might grow with age.

Reminds me of the different meaning of Taco Tuesdays versus men and women views.


Woman: Great a tacos for dinner!

Man: Giddy because it means a BJ tonight!
