To take offense to the ad is just silly. However, IMHO it is a dumb ad.

Try it with the Hanoi Hannah Red Sauce. It will betray your senses.

Im going to ask burger king for chopstick and i will attempt to eat a burger with them. That Maria woman who was offended can kiss my white tuchus !

By this logic, any Vietnamese eating a western style burger with their hands are also being culturally insensitive lol

What is really offensive, is answering «yes, you're right» to the ones attacking this ad. Much harm is done that way. Morons.

Wow. Let's turn the tables. I'm a white guy. I'm totally offended that, once again, white men are shown to be stupid. That said, people and corporations should get a life. I recognize that the corporation has to have a knee-jerk reaction to any criticism for the fear of losing business.

One thing I have no idea of is the size of the Vietnamese community in New Zealand. They could be righteous in their indignation. So therefore, I am not educated enough to judge this situation. On the face, however, it does appear a bit silly.

By the way, I know how to use chopsticks.
