#FastFoodArmsRace: Burger King Japan Has a Whopper of A Whopper
Later this month, a very special Whopper is going on sale in Japan. Packed with five flame-grilled patties, this Whopper will be available only for a limited time.The special Whopper goes on sale November 29 in Japan, which is “good meat day.“ It’s not a national holiday, but a pun. November 29 is 11-29. The eleven looks like the Japanese “ii" (ã„ã„), meaning “good.“ The numbers “2” and “9” are “ni" and “kyuu,“ which sounds like “niku" (肉), the Japanese word for “meat.“
I’m shocked that we in the States didn’t come up with “Good Meat Day" first.
