In just four short days an onion ring has been able to accumulate over 1,300,000 facebook fans.  The name of this newly viral facebook page is “Can this onion ring get more fans than Justin Bieber?”. Update: The day after this post was posted the fan page achieved it’s goal. Now this fan page cannot be found on Facebook so I am guessing that the publicist for Justin Bieber bought this group and had it shut down. The last time I saw this group it had over 2,000,000 fans, meaning it was also more popular then Miley Cyrus.

The case of this onion ring serves as an interesting example of how unique humor, when combined with a cause, can serve up a recepie for viral marketing success!
