Hugh Thomas : Not the words (for Adam Berenson)

 

 

Burger King asked people to describe the Whopper by heart. The whopper. You can taste the fire. I love the pickles, I love the lettuce and tomatoes. Love those pickles. The sesame seeds on top of that bun. There's nothing like it. Flame-grilled patties. Me encantan. Do you guys have a Whopper? People crave the flame-grilled patty, the freshly-cut veggies, the toasted sesame seed bun with mayo. They crave the Whopper, and nothing but the Whopper. That's why we removed all colours, flavours, and preservatives from artificial sources. Your way. Way better.
