Kind of wonder if the edible coffee cups also contain drinkable coffee

http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20150316005153/en/Chicken-Charge-BURGER-KING%C2%AE-Restaurants#.VQhOFxDF88Z

Starting today, Gloria, the unbiased bird, will make that tough call. She is going on the national Random Gloria tour in her custom-designed coop to determine if Chicken Fries will be available at certain BURGER KING® restaurants. Kicking off in the New York area, she will make her way across the nation, stopping at select locations with bursting contingencies of Chicken Fries fans.

Chicken Fries enthusiasts are invited to come cheer on Gloria in person or watch the live stream at www.chickenfries.com as she makes her decision. Each day when she arrives with her expert handler, she will ascend from her plush coop onto her custom decision-making stage and randomly choose whether or not Chicken Fries will return to that BURGER KING® restaurant. It's simple – if Gloria chooses “yes,” Chicken Fries will be on the menu at that location. If she chooses “no,” sorry, no Chicken Fries that day. Like it or not, Gloria has the final word. She can’t be bought, seduced or swayed. After the decision, fans can take celebratory or sad-face photos with her.

'bursting contingencies'

bizarro gazzara, Tuesday, 17 March 2015 15:56 (nine years ago) link

hiring a chicken to make decisions about eating the flesh of other chickens is some sick shit imo

bizarro gazzara, Tuesday, 17 March 2015 15:58 (nine years ago) link

is she unbiased or is she random

is she choosing locations on the merits or is it just a cruel joke of fate that a chicken decides your diet for you

haha


Born and raised at Starlight Ranch in Lake Elsinore, CA, Gloria is a three-year-old Rhode Island Red chicken.

Ever since she was a little chick, Gloria aspired to take the spotlight. Her friends on the farm adored her for her charisma and wit. And now, she finally has the perfect stage to showcase her talents.

it's like there's a vegan apostate working for their ad agency

Is a Chicken in Charge of BURGER KING® Restaurants?

, Tuesday, 17 March 2015 16:14 (nine years ago) link

for years fast food ad campaigns were limited to only having cartoon versions of animals eat themselves and think they were delicious

but soon, with cutting-edge genetic research, we will finally be able to have live chickens take bites out of themselves with three-pronged cartoon forks and then shoot a big grin at the customer before using their free wing to give a thumbs-up sign

j., Tuesday, 17 March 2015 16:15 (nine years ago) link

I think the P'Zolo (tm) can already do that

Have you seen this? http://fortune.com/2015/03/16/starbucks-baristas-race-talk/

an initiative launched this week by the coffee store chain to stimulate conversation and debate about the race in America by getting employees to engage with customers about the perennially hot button subject.

Beginning on Monday, Starbucks baristas will have the option as they serve customers to hand cups on which they’ve handwritten the words “Race Together” and start a discussion about race.

pplains, Tuesday, 17 March 2015 16:29 (nine years ago) link

There you go. My coffee cup now says "Race Together" on it. The conversation has begun.

Beginning on Monday, Dairy Queen dairistas will have the option as they serve customers to hand cups on which they’ve handwritten the words “MooLatte” and start a discussion about race.

Is it supposed to be a play on "We're in this race together"?

Thought it was an invitation to listen to Racebannon with a cool barista.

No longer an innovation, but the McDonald's near my workplace has the metal circle in this picture encased and on display like a holy relic.

Human taco Jon Newport and production manager Ben Wilkes, who took the video, spoke with Animal about the incident, which happened on Saturday afternoon. Newport was apparently a professional skateboarder at 16, which inspired Wilkes's confidence; "But as soon as he passed me I was like, 'Oh shit,'" he told the site. Taco toppings apparently obscured Newport's vision as he excited the ramp, resulting in the crash at the bottom.
