Meme lore
What is the McDonald's CEO vs. Burger King meme?
McDonald's CEO vs. Burger King is a two-panel: left, Chris Kempczinski in a beige sweater holding a Big Arch and taking a tiny bite (he called it a “product”); right, Burger King U.S. president Tom Curtis in a Flame Grilling apron taking a full bite of a wrapped Whopper. Used for corporate vs real, nibble vs chomp, and brand-rival jokes. Keep the slug; the right man is not BK’s CEO.
