A Thank You Letter To Burger King

My Dreams Are Coming True

A Thank You Letter To Burger King
Burger King

When I get a craving for food, I want it right then and there. I am an impatient person by nature. So naturally, fast food has become my one true love. INSTANT FOOD, YOU GUYS. It may not be the BEST quality, by nature, but it gets the job done. One of my favorite food items is burgers. Mmmm yes, please. I also love that I have a variety to choose from: Wendy’s, Burger King, McDonald’s, Five Guys, etc. Wait a minute. What if one of our two favorites got together and made one magical burger. OH MY BABY JESUS that would be wonderful.


This week, Burger King wanted to do the unthinkable and create a mashup burger with McDonald’s called the McWhopper for one day and one day only with a pop-up stand in the good old ATL. Why, you may ask, would these two huge organizations even think about doing this? Burger King wanted to bring awareness to the organization Peace One Day. Peace One Day is all about making Peace Day on September 21st official and reducing violence all around the world. The McWhopper would be about these two huge organizations that people would not think would get along putting aside all the conflict and getting together for one day, therefore making a difference for others.

Before you get too excited, get prepared. McDonald’s said no.

I get why they did, though. Here is Burger King calling them out in front of everyone, making them seem like the bad guy if they said no. They obviously loved the idea but did not want to collaborate on the McWhopper. Curious what was said? Read for yourself and see what you think.

.

However, the ad has paid off. Remember, the goal was bringing more awareness to the organization, Peace One Day, and what they stood for. People now know more about this organization and are getting behind their cause. Even though Burger King made McDonald’s seem pretty bad in the process, they accomplished part of what they set out to do.

However, this is not the end of this story. Oh no, Burger King will not give up. They had a goal and they wanted to achieve what they set out to do. THEY WROTE ANOTHER LETTER. They decided to reach back out to McDonald’s and see if more restaurants would be interested in picking up what they were putting down.

Burger King is an organization that apparently will not take no for an answer. They want to call it the Peace Burger. I salute you, Burger King, in trying to make all of my fast food dreams come true in a burger-sized package.

In the end, Denny’s, Giraffa’s USA, Krystal, Wayback Burgers were all game for making the peace burger. THANK THE LORD. Inside me, however, my heart and stomach are still crushed. McDonald’s, why must you break my heart? I love you and all for making all day breakfast a thing, but come on!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
