For most of us, avoiding a fiery death in a fast food restaurant would be high or near the top of our list of priorities.
However, a new campaign for Burger King in the US is using real life images of blazing restaurants to – brilliantly or oddly? – extol the delectable merits of its famed flame-grilled meat patties.
