Smells Like a Whopper
By Kim Hastreiter

Has anyone seen this new Burger King fragrance called FLAME Body Spray? It's sold at Ricky's for $3.95 and smells like a smokey barbequed burger. I kid you not. This is for real. But the best part is when I went on the Ricky's site and read the customer reviews (mostly raves) I came across the BEST comments/reviews of the Whopper-scented fragrance from "CarlCarl" of Chocolate, Nevada and "Fat Freddy Marsh" of Houston, Texas. We need to get these guys to start blogging for us!

Ever since i bought the Flame, my dogs have not been able to leave me alone.. they just love me!! except... well... there was a slight problem with that. You see, my dogs... well they started... attacking me. They gnawed on my ankle and bit through the artery, and I had to get 25 stitches at the hospital. They told me that it was either the FLAME or the dogs... well you know what I chose: FLAME ALL THE WAY!!!! My dogs are now living with a single old lady who does not use FLAME *tear* nor does anyone else in her household *double tear*. On the bright side, though, the hospital attendant thoroughly enjoyed the FLAME, if you catch my drift...Sweet Jesus That's Nasty!!! December 29, 2008

This stuff smells like a wicked lactose intolerant fart. I mean, it's truly nauseating. I sprayed a little bit on my hand and I've nearly thrown up 7 times already. It smells like a combination of Spencer's Gifts, Hott Topix, and adolescent fear wrapped in a skunk's colon. Washing does no good. I've tried everything. I've contemplated cutting my hands off, it's that bad. Please, someone tell me where the antidote is!
