Man claims to 'steal all the chicken nuggets' after quitting his job at Burger King

This man is a hero for the digital age, at least according to the internet.

And Twitter knelt before the supposed criminal legend:

We can only wonder what he had in mind...

Update: Correa has now admitted that the whole nugget heist was actually a social media experiment

Burger King has not responded to i100's request for comment
