No, it's not the latest cucumber-based invention in the fast food industry, but a phenomenon pointing out how vision and hearing interact to interpret speech. I'd say it also demonstrates how dominant vision is over our other senses.
Take a look at this video, repeat with your eyes closed.
What is he really saying?

That is so weird - you hear it so clearly one way with your eyes open, and as soon as you close your eyes you hear a different thing!
Oh, that heart attack grill thing - ONLY IN AMERICA.... can you find things like that. Quadruple bypass burger please!!!
Knepigt, (Crazy) but I´m like the 90 % who thought they heard DA...
After you've eaten your quadruple bypass burger you'll be rolled out in a wheelchair from the grill at no extra charge... :D
and while you are being rolled out in the wheel chair, you are happily saying BA BA DA DA BA GA....
is this what is called DADAism?
I just tested it on AnS, and she is among those 2% who actually hear "ba" even when they are looking at the video.
Maybe her eyesight is not so good???? :)
