Australian brands are tame on Valentine's Day in comparison to some of our global counterparts.

Burger King Israel, for example, has gone to the extent of offering a limited edition adults-only meal box.

The 'Valentine's Adult's Meal' packaging, which echoes its range of kids' meals, is only for those over 18 and includes two Whoppers, two boxes of French fries, two beers, and a feather duster, blindfold, or head massager.  

In a promotion, the chain said:

"Kids have got their ‘Kid’s Meal’ but what about grown-ups? Shouldn’t they have their own meal too? At least on Valentine’s?”

Mars has also celebrated the occasion, albeit in a less saucy way, by issuing this special edition Snickers bar for 14 February.
