This isn't an accurate description of what happened, since they immediately continued the thread with "If they want to, of course. Yet only 20% of chefs are women. We're on a mission to change the gender ratio in the restaurant industry by empowering female employees with the opportunity to pursue a culinary career." It's not like they were trying to be sexist.

Burger King produced a meatless burger in 2019 called the Impossible Whopper. They marketed the burger to be an alternative option for vegans and vegetarians. The problem with the burger was that it was cooked on the same grill as the meat patties which removed the option for vegetarians and vegans to even eat the burger. But some customers did eat them without knowing, which resulted in Burger King being sued for misleading their customers.

I've got the impression that most of these were just controversies that didn't actually damage the brands' images, and people keep buying their stuff in general.

I make deez nuts come online. It’s enough to comfortably replace my old job's income, especially considering I only work about 11 to 12 hours a week from home. I was amazed how easy it was after I tried it… 🙂 AND GOOD LUCK.:) HERE====)

How on earth has P&O's treatment of its workers (sacking of 800 staff with no notice, which their CEO even admitted he knew was illegal) not even make it on to this list?!?!
