Just so you know, I don't take commercials seriously either, no matter how clever they are! :wink:

The ad campaign is stirring up controversy, pretty much for what I said...they spent money to help their own sales, going to countries that have hunger crisis, and feel "whopper virgins" a hamburger all to sell more burgers here in the States.

At least they got some free burgers, that had to help!

They seemed like nice people who had some fun with this whole thing. I really liked it when they shared their culture with the film crew. It was really nice when that one guy gave them a jacket and when the villagers shared their food with the crew, since they tried the burgers they felt the foreigners should try their food as well.
