So I went to Burger King today
I stopped to read the newspapers in the front rack, and this guy stops by and says "You know it's all propaganda". We then chuckled, it was quite the comment...

Oh yeah, ther Chicken Ceasar Club is vastly overrated. The chicken element was okay, but otherwise it's bland.
