A Modern Esau Tale: Sacrifice Friends for Food

Burger King has released a new Facebook Application that will provide you with free food, provided you are willing to sacrifice a few friends. CNet reports:

Now is the time to put your fair-weather Web friendships to the test. Install Whopper Sacrifice on your Facebook profile, and we’ll reward you with a free flame-broiled Whopper when you sacrifice ten of your friends

Be warned: the sacrifice is public:

The funniest part: The “sacrifices” show up in your activity feed. So it’ll say, for example, “Caroline sacrificed Josh Lowensohn for a free Whopper.”

So, if you’re hungry, now may be the perfect time for a little Facebook cleaning. Come on, are you really that good of friends with what’s-his-name? Be honest, you just clicked yes to up your total friends, right? Well turn your low facebook-friend standards into free food! You can get the Facebook App here.
