Burger King

Eau de Whopper

GeneralEdward Kiledjian

BurgerKing Japan will be releasing (on April 1) a special Whopper eau de toilette. It may be an April 1 prank so stay tuned. 

The current promise is that for that day (April 1), the purveyor of Whopper will sell the perfume for 5,000 Yen (about $US42) with a whopper. 

So I don't know if this is real, we'll just have to wait and see.

Buy what ? Where? hun?

You read right... Burger King is opening its first restaurant in India and is hoping eBay will help drive sales. You were able to pre-order a Mutton Whopper on eBay or 128 rupees ($US 2.08 - $CAD 2.38 - £ 1.31).

Pre-ordering one meant you got a voucher for a burger and a Whopper TShirt.
