Burger King has found their own unique way to honor the Green Bay Packers during the 2018 football season with their cheesiest Whopper yet.The Green Bay Whopper has all the ingredients of the fast food chain’s traditional Whopper: flame-broiled beef patty topped with lettuce, tomatoes, mayonnaise, ketchup, pickles, and onions. But the eight slices of American cheese is what makes this sandwich as massive as it is.

“This generation has literally never had stability. They were born into everything from world terror to war to recession to gun violence in schools. It’s just their MO,” Merriman says. “They’re constantly looking for something that’s different and new and fresh. For these restaurant brands and chains to continue to win them, they’ve got to constantly be giving them something different.”
is it me or is that a completely fucking insane thing to casually drop in a pull quote about fast-casual restaurant marketing

Gen X was into extreme oyster shooters, and Gen Y likes activated charcoal, but these kids are different. We can't just combine those two and brand it an Active Shooter, for the new generation ... wait, Bob, can we?

These fishy new balls should be available at all IKEA U.S. restaurants starting today, billed as "healthy for both people and the planet." The brand says the new menu item — which it's referring to as an "eatball" — is made from ASC-certified salmon with the addition of MSC-certified cod and then seasoned with seaweed and lemongrass "to capture the fresh taste of the Nordic sea in one tasty ball."

"As a brand that likes to challenge industry norms, we have really sought to rethink what a value menu should be and the conventions of storytelling for it," global chief brand officer Marisa Thalberg said in a statement.To introduce the new menu, Taco Bell said it would introduce consumers into a “world that is fantastical and surreal.” The ads will run nationally on TV as well as digital and social platforms starting December 27."Sometimes even our most devout fans tell us that it can be hard to believe that food this good can also be this affordable. Taco Bell truly offers 'value beyond belief,' and this campaign dramatizes that," Thalberg added. "As there is a lot of talking down to consumers in this category, there is something special in our celebrating the savviness of our fans. That's how we 'zig' when everyone else 'zags.’"
