Get Bigger, Fuller, Bouncier … Double-Breasted Burgers.

Nobody ever tires of a transparent double entendre, right?

Bearing that wisdom in mind, Nando’s released an ad where a blonde ditz flags down a waitress because her burger didn’t come with chips. (That’s British talk for “fries.”)

“They’re on your plate,” the waitress points out.

“No they’re not,” the hungry hippo blasts back.

The waitress gives her a perplexed look, then slowly moves the plate out from under the girl’s rack, where — lo and behold — the prodigal fries lie limp and expectant.

As the embarrassed beauty struggles to locate her drinking straw without looking, a hearty voiceover delivers the punchline: “The bigger, fuller, bouncier double breasted burger from Nando’s!”

So vapid it tickles. Maybe Wendy’s should be taking notes. Props to the renegades at Illegal Advertising.
