About the Work
.Burger King is known for encouraging people to have it their way. Bullying is the opposite of that. One of the biggest problems with bullying is that people don’t stand up against it. When we learned that 30% of students worldwide are bullied each year, we decided to partner with NoBully.org and create a live social experiment using hidden cameras that proved more people would stand up for a bullied sandwich than a bullied child. Not only does it help raise awareness, but also urges people to do something about it and heroes the people who did. In the Bullying Jr. experiment, a high school junior is bullied; and then a Whopper Jr. sandwich is bullied and served to restaurant guests. While 95% of real-life customers reported their bullied burger, only 12% reported the high school junior being bullied right in their faces.
