Steal this idea: Toronto restaurant renames its burgers as office supplies so you can expense them

This story’s been making the rounds in my former home town of Toronto: Good Fortune Bar (currently operating as Good Fortune Burger during the pandemic) has cleverly renamed their burgers so that they look like office supplies you can expense:

This burger… …goes by the expense item-y name:
Diamond Chicken Burger Mini Dry Erase Whiteboard
Double Your Fortune Burger Ergonomic Aluminum Laptop Stand
Emerald Veggie Burger Wired Earphones with Mic
BYO (build your own) Burger Silicone Keyboard Cover

Jon Purdy, Good Fortune Burger’s Director of Operations says that it’s all in good fun and hints that you probably shouldn’t try expensing them: “There’s no malice intended in it, it’s all just fun and games.”

Still, it’s a fun idea that’s worth stealing for your own food or drink business. Seminole Heights eateries and drinkeries, do it! I’d love to buy some HDMI Cable Stout from 7venth Sun Brewery or a Webcam Ring Light Burrito Bowl from Xtreme Tacos!
