Most American lawsuit in the world lol
I've eaten the whopper like thrice ever and it is a massive burger
Don't other countries have truth in advertising laws?
What I mean is "boo hoo my burger is not big enough"
It's an American lawsuit anyway
You should have read the article, then. It's about false advertising.
Yeah if you look at the pictures in the article, you can see the advertisement shows the patty being 20?% larger than the bun underneath it. The photo under that shows the actual patty being slightly (10?%) smaller than the bun. I assume that's how the 35% number was determined.
Unless we're talking about prostitutes, this comparison to commercial advertising is specious.
