Upon hearing that Burger King would be releasing a fragrance that smelled of meat I immediately knew I needed to buy it. The entertainment value alone would be worth the few dollars. Not to mention the potential mischief that could be had spraying coworkers, or your spouses pillow, or taunting neighborhood dogs. I mean this spray could be magic.
Today, I finally stopped at my nearest Burger King to buy the spray. Being lazy and still half asleep I decided to use the drive through window. The resulting conversation went something like this:
"Hello, welcome to Burger King would you like to upgrade, buy more than you can eat, become obese, etc..."
"Hi, I would like a bottle of meat spray."
"Awwww, sorry what was that?"
"I would like to buy your meat flavored fragrance."
"Sorry sir I have absolutely no idea what you are asking."
"The spray that smells like whoppers. I saw on TV that you were selling a body spray that was meat scented."
"Yes we have whoppers"
"No, I do not want a whopper, I want the whopper meat spray."
[SILENCE]
(my wife "This is freaking hilarious")
"Ok, sorry I guess I was misinformed, sorry to waste your time"
[MORE SILENCE]
We drove off wondering what the hell just happened. Could this all be a holiday marketing scheme intended to drive jackasses like myself to Burger King, possibly. Could this spray that had gained so much media traction, not have trickled down to the average employee; also a possibility. Could this jackass behind the audio communication still be hungover or was this employee not engaged enough to read any press release or listen to any manager briefing? I guess these are all possibilities. The end result is that I have no meat spray. I refuse to scour the web for it or pay 7xs the retail value. Piss off with your meat spray Burger King, and as for that King... "I will get you some day, bastard."
