Content creator @darealblaquefoggaa posted a video on 5 March 2026 that had people talking. The clip showed Burger King president Tom Curtis standing in a kitchen wearing an apron, holding a Whopper. He took a large, confident bite, chewed, and then turned to a woman nearby who asked:

"Not bad, right?"

He raised one finger, nodded, and said:

"Only one thing missing. A napkin."

That was all he needed to say as the woman laughed. He clearly praised the burger's taste but implied that the sauce was a bit much as his face got messed.

Why the Burger King CEO video went viral

The video was a dig at McDonald's after their CEO, Chris Kempczinski, posted a video tasting the chain's new Big Arch burger. Instead of calling it a burger, he called it "the product." He then took what can only be described as the tiniest, most uncertain bite anyone had ever seen. People online found it hilarious and could not stop talking about it.

Burger King clearly saw the gap. Curtis's video felt like a direct response, and the internet picked up on it immediately. One CEO looked genuinely happy to be eating his own food. The other looked like someone had put something strange in front of him and asked him to be polite about it.
