 The McWhopper dream 

that will never happen

It was a gallant stand, Burger King USA, a burger giant, approached McDonald's USA, another burger giant, if not the biggest, for a Peace day project to happen on Sept. 21.  

The proposal of Burger King to McDonald's was simple, let's have a cease fire day with our burger wars and combine our efforts namely Mc Donald's Big Mac and Burger King's Whopper, each their own signature burgers and name the "McWhopper", now that got me excited!  But will it happen?
