Following the successful joint venture of Taco Bell and Doritos® Locos Taco, made with real Doritos® Chips, Hardees has yet again created a controversial and delectable meal - Hardees Krispy Kreme Donut Bacon Burger!
In a surprising turn from pencil-thin super models, Hardees has turned to Hollywood Superstar and West Virginia native, Jennifer Garner to promote their new burger. Jennifer declined to market her pure sex-appeal and go for a less shocking approach than previous Hardees commercials.
"We didn't mind so much," said Hardees spokesperson Dee P Fryer "We respect Jennifer Garner and appreciate the fact that she'd even consider doing this ad with us. This time it's not the sex that sells -- but gluttony. Dripping bacon grease, tons of red meat, all between two fresh hot glazed donuts... excuse me, I need a napkin."
Jennifer's agent has declined comment, only to say she was thrilled to get another job. Her husband Ben Affleck has called several times to leave detailed statements, but our digital voice mailbox became full. However, they seemed to be mostly about some new project he's working on, and not about Jennifer or the burger.
Of course the ads are controversial, but this time instead of being protested by parent groups and churches, they are being attacked by both Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig.
Ima Beegwan says "We believe that not only are the commericals sending the wrong message, but the burger itself is dangerous! It's too delicious to refuse! Several long-time weight-loss success stories have begun picking up weight again! Even Jared Fogel (Subway Commercials) is back to his orginal weight of 425 pounds!"
The new burger will be available at all Hardees locations this Friday and commercials will be blanketing several key markets over the Memorial Day weekend.
