For many Europeans, one of the toughest parts of lockdown was the total closure of many fast-food outlets.
Unlike here in Australia where you could still get a Big Mac or Whopper via the drive-thru, in Europe most outlets closed completely. (Although 12 Macca’s in Victoria recently had to close after employees came in contact with a delivery driver who had contracted CV-19)
However, with lockdown laws now softening, Europeans with a taste for some greasy burgers are now venturing back in store.
And to ensure its customers are keeping the mandatory 1.5-metres away from each other, Burger King in Germany has devised an ingenious cardboard crown that customers can wear to guarantee they safe-distance while clogging their arteries on a greasy Whopper with triple cheese.
The fast-food chain is known for giving away its free cardboard headgear, but the new version is several metres wide to prevent customers from getting too close to each other.
