Burger King apologizes, deletes Women’s Day tweet

David Miami’s International Women’s Day campaign for Burger King featured a full-page ad in The New York Times to introduce the a scholarship fund designed to increase the number of female chefs and head chefs in the restaurant industry. A Burger King UK Twitter thread about the scholarship, starting with “Women belong in the kitchen,” was quickly condemned and the brand later deleted the tweet and apologized for it and the abusive comments from others that followed.
