Omaha Steaks, a renowned heritage food brand, has created quite a stir on social media with its latest unusual challenge. The company is searching for one daring fan willing to get The Full Bun Tat – a hyperrealistic tattoo of a generously stacked burger – in exchange for a lifetime supply of its new premium steak burgers.
The intricate tattoo will be crafted by the acclaimed Southern California-based tattoo artist Steve Butcher, who is well-known for his incredibly realistic renditions of celebrities, athletes, food, and pets. With a staggering 1.2 million Instagram followers and frequent press mentions, Butcher's artistry is sure to attract attention.
However, there's a catch to this unique offer: the burger tattoo must cover an entire bun, meaning the participant's backside. The promotion runs until May 1st, and those brave enough can submit their names for consideration at omahasteaks.com/tattoo.
While the idea may seem wild at first glance, a recent Harris Poll commissioned by Omaha Steaks revealed that 22% of respondents would be willing to get a tattoo of a burger or steak, and nearly a third (30%) would go under the needle for a lifetime supply of burgers. Furthermore, the challenge has already received over 2,700 entries and counting since its launch on Wednesday, indicating that many are eager to go the extra mile (or, in this case, cover the entire area of their buttock) for an endless supply of delicious burgers.
