Burger King ad offends: Jonathan Munk

A Burger King ad that aired in the UK recently escaped being banned because it was “Offensive to Cows,” according to Brand Republic.

The ad featured a cow walking in the background wearing a Burger King logo. Some viewers thought the image of a cow wearing a Burger King logo was offensive, saying it implied the cow was on his way to becoming a burger.

Burger King’s response: “There was no deliberate intention to link the product to the animal.”

BK is not the first company to use cows as moving billboards. Here are a few others.
