RE: Want to earn some free Crypto? Eat a sandwich!

Very nice very nice.
It's good to see Burger King involving people in Crypto, I guess the fear of people realizing you've been feeding them poisonous crap is a good catalyst to change the whole purpose of your business. That might sound like a bold claim but truthfully there will be a point where it does not matter what the product is but what matters most to them is that people use their coin. In other words the Burger King Crypto market will be more important to them than worrying about their sales going down due to a waking of consciousness that is telling us to eat healthier and vote with our money while also ensuring care is given to our environment. If it were up to me I might buy a whopper, then THROW IT AWAY xD just to keep the cryptocoin. Because that is what its worth really. Sadly I am boycotting Burger King and would rather spend my money on a cryptocoin that supports local organic farmers or any movement of good people with intentions to solve the worlds problems rather than perpetuate this system of industrialized food and industrialized human slave labour which also supports Israel's apartheid. Synthetic junk food lacking any nutrients with crazy chemical make up hard to digest by natural human body, being a cause of tons of diseases etc. etc. The best cooks of this world are concerned with feeding people who are hungry, while not limiting their knowledge to simply feeding people they also look into details such as nutrient density, temperatures to preserve nutrients in food and whether a food is safe to eat. For Burger King to deserve my respect -along with ANY food company- they should be the leading force in food politics. They should inform their consumers What are GMO in an honest way and state what they do to our environment as well as our health. They more than anyone should be advocating to reverse the corrupt system where GM food owes no accountability of labeling their food while food that is grown as nature intended has to go through strict processes and procedures and pay expensive fees to get their products labelled. If they would inform everyone about how to maintain optimum health with diets and food, they could lead a powerful force in advocating for food justice. The best ideology for a model of a global food chain would be one that seeks to improve the local economy. For eg. I set up a Burger King in Somalia, then I start contacting local farmers who produce their foods naturally and organically, to make sure these farmers stay in business and can pay their house and feed their families. Burger King does nothing of this kind, and quite on the contrary, recently they did a thing with prosthetic limbs but the promise they made was limited to very few people and lines of thousands of people waiting to receive this promised deed. The truth is that this is marketting, you buy a pack of food, take it to a homeless person, take a picture and say "I help homeless people" then you leave that homeless never to be seen or heard of again. Now you have people who respect you and believe you help homeless people. This is the strategy of their marketting, only in a grand scale. There are many solutions to solve this worlds problems and many ways to do more effective things with many times more of an exponential impact. There are ways to produce one thing that can spread out, solving many problems. This has been an endlessly long observation from my part, if you managed to read it all good for you, hopefully it helps to see beyond the superficial actions we are informed of and remember that these are just mediocre attempts compared to what even YOU can do by yourself. If you're curious read "The One Straw Revolution" by Masanobu Fukuoka.

Here are some examples:
A Blind Man and His Armless Friend Plant a Forest in China


Man single-handedly plants forest in N China desert

If these people managed to plant forests by themselves or just one helping hand, imagine what a corporation with millions of employees worldwide could do. I hope this inspires someone who has thought of opening a food business, even the smallest ideas as long as they are practiced can grow and spread greatly. Plant a food forest for example, employee some locals. Africa has many people who don't even have access to water, if a food forest was grown there, the trees would promote rainfall, the rain would be filtered and collected by the trees which then seeps to the bottom of the earth and can then be collected by wells. Another solution to the water problem is water from air with Warka Towers which should not be expensive to replicate and make. Having a deserted area turned to a rich environment with increased rainfall means you can have people employed to attend the food forest, and provide your food business with food while at the same time keeping the people fed and making water available. If these people are fed and paid fairly then you have a booming local economy, you have people who will then consume your food that was produced thanks to their help. Now people don't need drugs because they are well fed and happy to be alive rather than depressed, and who might also resort to violence and stealing out of desperation of being subjected to poverty and misery on a daily basis. This is indeed an idea that promotes peace and harmony between consumer and business. There is nothing more beautiful than having the respect of an entire community for where else would anyone want to live in be it not a community of people who respect you?
