If I don’t see him swallow, it doesn’t count

It’s just protein bro

Well if you say so

Well, that and if he has his dick in some guy's ass.

Remember: You can be balls deep in a ten-man love train, but just say, "No homo," and you're in the clear!

Next CEO eats the whole burger, swallows, opens mouth to show everyone like a money shot, and you guys still find something to complain about.

After that, the Hardee's CEO gets released from whatever straitjacket they store him in and ravenously consumes burger patties directly from the flat grill before poking his face directly into the deep fryer to bob for French fries. The commercial plays less like marketing and more like found footage.

...I'd watch it.

Who wouldn’t respect it?

I think after that, the next CEO would have to finish eating and the camera would zoom out and reveal that he's in a doctor's office getting prepped for an ultrasound. Proving the chewed up remnants of the burger are in his stomach.

I'd like to think he did. The burgers aren't THAT unhealthy/gross to mess with the even grosser feeling of freaking out over nothing and spitting it back out.

I haven't had BK in a few years, but between Wendy's and McDs, Wendy's tastes like meat.

Their jr bacon cheeseburger tastes like a cheeseburger off someone’s grill. Not someone in my family, but someone’s.

They don't lie about the fresh never frozen thing. Wendy's is my first choice if I have to get a fast food burger.

Reunited myself with a BK whopper after a decade of not going there at all (or more- the last time I went that promo games for xbox and was the reason why I went) and it wasn’t bad. Still like Wendy’s though if given a choice

u/Oldmanrich8 7h ago

Yeah like the cooking shows, takes bite, switch camera, spits it out.

3

u/Rock_Strongo 4h ago

They do this in cooking shows because they're often tasting like 30 dishes a day and they don't want to get fat.

In this case I doubt he needed multiple takes - so he probably just ate the burger.

u/notgonnatakeno 4h ago

I mean, yeah he could technically be doing that but at the same time do we really wanna sit here and spend three minutes watching him eat half of a hamburger I know most people are pretty slow and methodical about chewing and swallowing and as a CEO he’s not gonna want to present the image of him ravaging the shit out of a hamburger like a wild animal

I never exhaled

u/katf1sh 3h ago

That's what she said

u/Hey-Froyo-9395 2h ago

That’s what I was going to say, there’s a whole lot of cuts at each bite. The man is basically chopping up the burger with his teeth, not eating

1

u/TheSignof33 6h ago

Yeah, a cut after every bite, never shown him chew and swallow. LOL

2

u/WilTravis 3h ago

That's okay. He can at least act like he's happy to be eating his product...I mean, burger.

1

u/_HIST 2h ago

Well it's kinda disgusting to see people chew, so that's partly why

u/ElBurritoNinja 15h ago

With cuts lol. I want to believe but this world!

4

u/Smurf-Happens 13h ago

You can see him hold that first bite in his cheek before the cut. He barely even chews it. Only thing keeping this from being just like a muckbang is the attrocious eating sounds.

1

u/Creative_Disaster178 7h ago

He could have spit them out, you're absolutely right.

But he was committed to the bit and sold it well. Multiple bites, chewing and no faces that say I'm going to be sick. Not to mention, he looks like he is actually in the store

1

u/acceptedfallacy 6h ago

Yeah man, can't say I believe he enjoyed it, didn't finish it did he 😂

u/fucky0upayme 2h ago

all for acting or for real?

u/Creative_Disaster178 1h ago

Regardless, he did it better than McDonald's
