FTI: Cost of a Whopper? 10 Facebook Friends

Fast food chain Burger King seems to think people will. In their recently launched Facebook application aptly named “WHOPPER Sacrifice“, you get a free WHOPPER if you delete 10 friends.

As of 11.30am (GMT+8), the counter on the “whopper sacrifice” shows that a whopping (pun intended) 96421 friends have been sacrifice, bringing a total of 9642 whoppers issued. Quite a huge number considering that the people you sacrifice will be published on your news feed. Judging from the number of people sacrificed, it seems that this is not a major concern. Neither are people concerned with what the person being deleted might think.. It is definitely a weird thought that you’re sacrificed for a burger…

Seeing that most Facebook users have quite  a number of people who they don’t know on real life, only their online profiles, I guess sacrificing some may not seem like a very big deal. Well, I guess you can always add those people you deleted again.

So, would you do it?
