Comment Burger King vs Hungry Jacks (Score 2, Informative) 352

Apparently someone trademarked Burger King in Australia before the big fast food company got here. They tried to sell it to Burger King for an enormous profit but the price they asked was too high and Burger King simply decided to come up with a different name - Hungry Jacks. At least, that's the urban legend I grew up hearing.

Clearly now that situation has expired, because now we have both Burger King and Hungry Jacks stores in Australia.
