Myth bustin popular 'castle island' in Ireland as a fake

This a photo that did the rounds on the more visual social media spots such as Pinterest, Imgur and Reddit. The varying captions claim it is a “castle island” and many say it is in Dublin.

As an office of native Irish people our first reactions was “Wow!” and then, "Wait, this can’t possibly be real."

However, all you have to do is carry out a cursor Google Image search to see that many are taken in by this Photoshop trickery.

This image is actually Khao Phing Kan island, also known as “James Bond Island,” in Thailand, with a portion of the Lichtenstein Castle, near Honau in the Swabian Alb, Baden-Württember, Germany, plonked on top.

There you have it! Don’t believe everything that you see!

Whopper toothpaste and Subway ice cream

Burger King and Subway both went for the 'ha ha imagine if savoury food was a sweet food or a toothpaste' approach.

Here is what the good people at Burger King had to say: "The iconic burger: the WHOPPER® from BURGER KING® is so generous and tasty, that its fans would do anything to make its unique flame grilled beef taste last longer.

"To keep the tasty flavours lasting longer, BURGER KING® has created WHOPPER TOOTHPASTE   TM, the first toothpaste with active WHOPPER® extracts.

"BURGER KING® and agency Buzzman teamed up with experts to reproduce the iconic flavour of the WHOPPER® and combine it with active ingredients for optimal teeth and gum hygiene."

And Subway:  "On 1 April 2017, the SUBWAY® brand is launching their first ever ice cream range… inspired by the nation’s most love Subs. The savoury SUBZero range is available in these three delicious flavours for a limited time only:

• Meatball Marinara
• Chicken Tikka
• Tuna
