Who comes up with this stuff?: Apparently burgers aren’t enough for Burger King; they have entered the fragrance business, too. They’ve recently introduced a new men’s fragrance called, “Flame” billed as “the scent of seduction with a hint of flame-broiled meat.” Really. I read about this on another blog, Recollected Life.
