Its apt that Tony Stark, after escaping from Afghanistan, demanded an American cheeseburger from Burger King, because in 2008 Robert Downey Jr credited the company with helping him beat addiction. While driving a car piled with tons of f**king dope five years earlier, the actor stopped at BK and had an epiphany. It was such a disgusting burger I ordered, he said. I had that, and this big soda, and I thought something really bad was going to happen. Consequently, he threw all his drugs into the Ocean and decided to clean up his act.
