Are You Worth More Than a Burger?

This week Burger King started a new campaign called the Whopper Sacrifice campaign. Basically you'd get a free whopper any time you "sacrificed" 10 of your Facebook friends.

I thought it was hysterical and noted on one Linked In Group chat that the sacrificial lambs should receive a message accordingly.

Apparently BK had the same idea! The campaign was suspended later on today. Visitors were informed that “Facebook has disabled Whopper Sacrifice after your love of The Whopper sandwich proved to be stronger than 232,654 friendships.”

Facebook responded by saying the application is merely being tweaked for privacy reasons. Officials at the social network didn't like that it alerted people who had been "un-friended" as part of the application.
