Nor is it something new, I  bet that even before our collective memory, we humans \u2018monetized\u2019 on special  days like solar and lunar eclipses, solstices the birthdays of important people  like chiefs and holy men and women. In the days of old most of the time it  ended with a collective build of some kind of burial. With the coming of faith  and believes it got better. We went from once or twice in a life time to yearly  celebrations with commercial potential. And thanks to global media we end up  with Whopping traditions like Halloween. Depending on your tradition and believe  Halloween is connected with the ending of the harvest season, I would say a  good season for trading and capitalizing. It is only a pity that the spiritual  connection got \u2018lost in progress\u2019. Maybe we all will end up like  Jack-0\u2019-lanterns for this, eternally wandering Limbo with our bag of profits on  our backs.<\/p>\n<p>Not that I have a dark view of the future. And of course as  designer, I find many things have to change \u2013 for the better with a bit of  wisdom and luck.<\/p>\n<h3>Now To Those Dark And Delicious Developments<\/h3>\n<p>I have a natural suspicion regarding the color black or  nearly black on my food. I\u2019m not a fan of eating charcoal and &#8211; after watching  some cooking shows on television \u2013 all my senses get activated if I hear that  things are rather caramelized. I am a big fan of toffee and fudge, but this  kind, no thanks!<\/p>\n<p>Burger King will not get my vote this time. But Burger King  made me sure interested in how this campaign will evolve in the USA. On could  of course ask if the effects of this campaign are provoked by the concept of it  or by the degree of hunger amongst North Americans, able and wanting to buy  foods in this price range.<\/p>\n<p>I am a bit disappointed on the execution of this burger  though. With All Hallows\u2019 Evening in mind I would have chosen the items between  the dark bun parts from the color range of reds, oranges and yellows. Easy to  do with red lettuce \u2013 orange and red tomato and or capsicum \u2013 some chili pepper  for the coal in Jack\u2019s lantern, and an orange colored burger.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing about how much the food industry invests in  developing and testing new products, also here we run on a budget bargain.<\/p>\n<h3>What Will Be Next?<\/h3>\n<p>I propose the Design Burger, on a PMS7447 colored bun on the  bottom and a PMS300 bun on top. All this filled with color calibrated lettuce, tomatoes,  pickles, cheese and burger.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/aaronsaltzman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.designmantic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Aaron-Saltzman.jpg\" alt=\"Aaron Saltzman\" title=\"Aaron Saltzman\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4050\" width=\"700\" height=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">I want to try the Burger King black whopper, for no other reason than seeing my poop turn green. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/GreenPoop?src=hash\">#GreenPoop<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Aaron Saltzman (@amsaltzman) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/amsaltzman\/status\/651234702821429252\">October 6, 2015<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/gianamucci\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.designmantic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Giana-Mucci.jpg\" alt=\"Giana Mucci\" title=\"Giana Mucci\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4050\" width=\"700\" height=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BurgerKing\">@BurgerKing<\/a> I&#8217;ve made a new graphic for your Halloween Burger.

After all, isn\u2019t that what every marketer and brand manager hopes  to pull off?
