Change is in the air and how. While many countries have legalized the LGBTQ community and are being considered as a part of mainstream society, the food industry is not untouched. Popular YouTuber/comedian/activist Elijah Daniel recently announced the opening of a special burger chain, which has gone viral. On his official Twitter handle, he announced the launch of hamburgers of LGBTQA+ variety and is winning the hearts of millions. According to his post, all the sale proceeds of Gay Burgers restaurant will be donated to the Los Angeles LGBT Center.
Daniel duly mentioned in the post that the burgers will be available in Los Angeles, New York City, and San Fransisco via DoorDash, Postmates, and GrubHub. Have a look at the post:
If you notice in the images, it’s a colorful and delectable Burger and that is what makes it different from others. All these burgers are enclosed in multi-colored rainbow wrappers which are symbolic of the LGTBQ community. What also made them popular on Twitter are the humorous titles given to each one of them.
To name a few are, Love Me Daddy (a “studly beef daddy patty” topped with American cheese, pickles, white onion, lettuce, and special house sauce “gayoli”). I Like Chicks (fried chicken “daddy patty,” gayoli, mustard, lettuce, pickles), Gay Fries (“Fries but they’re gay, y’know?”), Extremely Gay Fries (your average gay fries plus caramelized onions, cheese, and bacon), and No More Milk Daddy (“vegan daddy patty,” sliced tomato, onion, pickles, lettuce).
Netizens took it in a good spirit and here how they responded to the viral tweet.
“I really wanna order some, but I’m all the way over in the East and at least a 12-hour drive from NYC. The food looks so good. Could beat Wendy’s alone on looks because I’ve found every other burger I’ve had from a well-known chain looks kinda small. These are packed.”
“Can you do a gay pizza next? The names for the burgers are epic and I’m now trying to picture the amazing names you would make for pizzas.”
Do you think it’s the time India should also introduce something on the same lines in the commercial market? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section.
