NEW YORK (AP) — Burger King has launched a new men's body spray called "Flame," which it describes as "the scent of seduction with a hint of flame-broiled meat." he fast food chain is marketing the product through a Web site featuring a photo of its King character reclining fireside and naked, except for an animal fur strategically placed to not offend.
The marketing ploy is the latest in a string of virile ad campaigns by the company.
Burger King is also in the midst of its Whopper Virgins campaign that features an taste test with fast-food "virgins" pitting the Whopper against McDonald's Big Mac.

Why is it that Burger King always matches the Whopper against the Big Mac? Yes, they are both the signature burger, but really, isnt the quarter pounder more of a traditional burger and more similar to the Whopper?

Do you remember the Big King? I wish they'd bring that back. It beat the hell out of a Big Mac.

That BK marketing team is genius. I actually want a Whopper now.
Remember when they had that Angus burger and the commercial for it was a spoof of a diet book called "The Dr Angus Diet"? It was probably around 2005. Well the commercial had a 1-800 number and when on some serious drugs some friends and I called it. It had this elaborate menu system where you could press different buttons and hear the entire life story of Dr Angus. The man traveled a lot through Europe. Well, point of the story is, at one point we got to one part and it was Dr Angus wondering why the word "pleasure" was pronounced as it is and not "PLEEZ-er". And then it just said "PLEEZ-er" over and over again. To this day, every time I hear the word "pleasure" I crave a whopper.

Yeah, I remember one ad when the parents found the empty arch deluxe box in their sons room and we're crying and all "zomg he's all grown up!"
