Burger King of Japan is promoting Microsoft’s Windows 7 release today with this seven-layer Whopper. It’s 5 inches in diameter, and tips the scale at 1 3/4 pounds – about equal to the weight of the change it could remove from your pockets – $15.90 in U.S. coins. It’s available for one week – as in 7 days. Hard to believe the heart-healthy Japanese would fall for this 2,120-calorie American ploy. But then they, like a lot of us, fell for Vista, too.
