Question:
In 2009, Burger King pulled an advertising campaign in the United Kingdom and Spain promoting its “Texican Whopper” because of complaints from the Mexican government of cultural insensitivity.

After viewing the commercial on Youtube.com at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNabO2d-zbw, identify why this commercial could be considered offensive. Do you agree with the decision to discontinue the advertising?
