In an effort to highlight gender disparities in the male-dominated culinary world and how most chef's are men, Burger King tweeted the following:
"Women belong in the kitchen".
According the article, Burger King wrote:
“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. . .help female Burger King employees pursue their culinary dreams!”
from the article:
The first tweet was no accident. The brand also took out a full-page ad in The New York Times, with the same message. “Women belong in the kitchen” was in giant letters; the further context was in small print below.

Like someone who works in burger king is a chef.
With only 20% woman chefs, clearly they don't belong in the kitchen, but working in a restaurant and cooking at home are worlds apart, there's reasons why most chefs are male and it's got nothing to do with cooking ability.
@trev33 saidSo in your opinion what would the reason be trev33?
