Thanks to a recent European trademark ruling depriving McDonald’s of the Big Mac trademark across the EU, Burger King can now advertise the “Wished It Was” burger — and lots more besides — with no legal repercussions.

In a spoof ad, Burger King Sweden showed a restaurant menu offering the burger alongside a selection including “Like a Big Mac, But Actually Big”, “Kind of Like a Big Mac But Juicier and Tastier”, and “Big Mac-ish But Flame-Grilled of Course.”
Big Macs suck.  The most overrated food item in the world that isn't made from fish eggs.
