Hands-free Whopper holder introduced by Burger King (http://www.upi.com/blog/2013/05/30/Hands-free-Whopper-holder-introduced-by-Burger-King/2841369962575/)
Burger King in Puerto Rico introduced a gadget that lets you eat its Whopper without the use of your hands.

I'm not sure what to think about this. I always had to use at least one hand with my Whopper. ;)

Seriously?
Wow....
Come ON!!
If you are so lazy that you can't hold the friggin sandwich you have a serious problem.
Agreed
That is terrible!!
How to pack more rubbish into morbidly obese people!!
And Jamie, what is a woman with health issues doing eating Whoppers? Get back on the treadmill now!!!
You'd get more nourishment eating the burger boxes
That device would come in handy (pun intended) to a disabled person, but seriously how lazy one must be to use it. Or are we that busy with our laptops and smart phones that we can't put them down while we stuff our faces?
It'd be good for driving and eating. You could hold the steering wheel with one hand, be nibbling on that and grabbing fries with the other hand. I hope it comes with a bib though.
Gee it reminds mme of something else.

That's what I thought it was for. Which isn't so bad. But still, seems like it'd be easier to just park for the short while it takes to eat it.

I was just about to GIS on horse feedbag and post it here, but you beat me to it. Carry on! ;D
Ain't nothing wrong with strapping on the ol' feed bag.

I can honestly say that I was expecting a picture of somebody face-first in a plate of hamburger. Possibly with their arms tied behind their backs.

Are you implying that the OP is a bit less than prim and proper?
I plead the Fifth on the grounds that I might incriminate myself.

Honestly, I haven't had a Whopper from Burger King in more than a year. I will admit, I had a hamburger from In-N-Out last week, in a moment of weakness. :'(

Mmmm....whopper.... :P
I think this device is "engineered" for young people, so they can continue texting during dinner.
Well, obviously, you got a Double Whopper. ;)
I bet when you try to take off your Whopper holder, you pour all the pooled-up grease and sesame seeds in your hair!

Yyyeah, I think I'll stick with my hands, thanks. And other sandwiches - they're hard enough to handle on their own; whoppers are, well, a bit of a whopper. ^_^
Admittedly, this is worse:

Three thousand calories in a single UNBITEABLE sandwich, boys and girls! It's called 'Widowmaker' for a reason.

Not so sure about the seeds though.

Burger King Hands-Free Whopper Holder Solves "First World Problems" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndXJAQUXAOo#)
I think this is awesome. It's good marketing that sparks conversation about the brand, even if no one would actually use it...right? Hopefully...

And that is the purpose of marketing, to put a product on people's minds...for good or ill, so long as they/we think about it..."Oh man! I would *never* use that feed bag for a Whopper...
Hmmm...a Whopper sounds good right now...but I won't buy the holder, just the burger...so I'm saving money now! Cool!!"

'Hands-free' whopper holder a joke, Burger King says (http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2013/06/04/burger-king-reveals-hands-free-whopper-is-hoax/)
The unveiling of a hands-free Whopper holder in a video that touted the device's appeal to mutitasking burger-lovers was a hoax, Burger King says.
The company said in a statement to CNBC on Monday that the video was produced by a Puerto Rican ad agency in celebration of the chain's 50th anniversary on the island.
"The video featuring a 'hands-free' Whopper Sandwich holder was produced by an agency in Puerto Rico to celebrate the brand and the iconic Whopper Sandwich in a humorous way."

I am so NOT happy about this. I wanted one. >:(
Sing along, everybody!
Hold the pickles hold the lettuce
Whopper hoaxes sure upset us
Thought we wouldn't have to hold
That burger today!
I'm serious!

Wait for version 2.0, I hear it's going to have Double Whopper capacity, fries dispenser, and a grease shield to protect the hair.

Minka (Ukrainian Folk Song) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxY0fXu60AE#)
The tune is from a Russian song describing a young lady in love with a soldier. He goes to war and returns home 7 years later. She waited for him but got fat. He left her.

Boom Like that..
Theme song of fast food......sellers?
I used to have a hands-free Whopper holder. But we broke up.
I don't like Whoppers. I prefer Subway. But alas, burger was indeed king.
For a long time I said nothing. Smiling, eating with a barely noticeable shudder as she held meat-based monstrosity to my lips.
But in the end, I could endure no more.
We talked into the wee small hours, one cold January night. But no compromise could be reached.
It was a Sandwich Schism.
Things went downhill from there.
And in the end... it was very messy.
She left without saying a word, one morning. A solitary pickle left on the counter. A symbol of the final impasse we had reached.
A fast feud.
...
Sorry, I'm in an odd mood. ;D
OMG that is so sad :(
It's not true, is it?
Quote from: Jamie D on July 23, 2013, 08:31:23 PM

No, it's not true. :)
I don't much like Subway, either. ;)
Egg on my face!
LOL... Like most others, my friends and I would make up nick names for the various fast food chains and their products :laugh: One time I slipped up and ordered a 'Slopper' with cheese at the drive through which of coarse was answered by a rather dismayed "What!?!?!"
Sorry, I'm terrible >:-)
Remember Red Foreman from 'That 70's Show'? One of my fine friends looked like a younger version and had a similar disposition :icon_raving: I often suspected that his tough guy persona was a front and that he was secretly gay but never said anything, that turned out later to be true
Anyway, his favorite phrase was "In your butt" and he also had a thing for going to the 'In N Out' Burger place and was willing to pay 8) His unique way of inviting you was always "Hey, how'd ya like a little in your butt tonight?" But then he would be too timid to pursue it any further
Last I'd heard, he'd found himself a partner and they'd moved away together, hope things are going well for them
Wish there was an In N Out Burger place up here, kinda crave one of their combo meals sometimes

I'm very offended people are making fun of Burger King's hamburger trough feeder. It helped me defeat my anorexia. I'm now a healthy 462 pounds and have no concern of near term starvation.
Where'd my feet go!?
