When he says "aren't you hungry for the burger king whaler now" at the end he pronounced the "h" in "whaler". Just a family guy reference if you want a laugh.
The name 'Whaler' was later judged to be a tad politically incorrect; The succeeding 'Dolphinator' and 'Double Maniteeseburger' sandwiches were no more popular than this one.
@DevSodDribble That is classic, I remember PETA protesting outside Burger Kings for serving Whale Sandwiches, They did buckle under and changed the name of the sandwich while I was managing for them to the Big Fish
@nutballgazette A guy I worked with at McD's, years ago, told me that he got into trouble once because a customer asked what the 'Filet O'Fish' was made from, and he told them 'dolphin.'
LOL! I remember this commercial like it was yesterday. A name like this wouldn't get past the development stage today. Thanks for sharing.

@DevSodDribble That would do it., When a Seafood Place advertises in store dolphin people go crazy, They think they are selling "Flipper"

They should have made a mini version of the sandwich called the "Seal Clubber"
