The Daily WTF: Fast Food Companies Could Be Using Aborted Fetuses In Their Food
That’s what a state senator thinks, anyway: His proposed bill bans all fast food made with fetuses. Better safe than Soylent Green, right? More »
Hey Girl, Ryan Gosling Cares About Animal Cruelty
Hey girl, there’s something we needs to talk about. And by “girl,” I mean McDonalds, and by “something” I mean bird torture. Baby Goose is so not down with bird torture. More »
Parting Tweet: Stephen Colbert Pitches McDonald’s First TV Show
This is the best reaction we’ve heard so far to the news that McDonald’s is starting its own TV channel. Thank you, Stephen Colbert, for the mental image of Angela Lansbury following a trail of dropped burgers with her trusty magnifying glass. More »
Video: Man Eats 25,000th Big Mac
Dan Gorske has been eating Big Macs every day since the 1970s — he started at nine a day and is now down to only one or two in each 24-hour period. And he just broke 25,000! Somehow, defying all of medical science, Dan is somehow getting even healthier as time goes on. Maybe he’s slipping in some acai between those all-beef patties? More »
Off The Market: 6 Fun Things We Learned About The McDonald’s McFlurry Maker
I found this McDonald’s McFlurry Maker for $4 at a Goodwill in Delaware. It was taped shut with strong masking tape, making me wonder if there was a monster inside, or if the promised “McFlurry Mix” had grown sentient and was trying to claw its way out. More »
OSIC: McDonald’s Is Your Friend For Last Minute Gifts
In the 12 days leading up to December 25th, we’re rolling out our “Oh Shit It’s Christmas” features.
We are smack in the middle of the holiday party season, and sometimes, with more than one party a night, it can be hard to remember all the places you’re going and who needs gifts and all that business. But there’s one place that is particularly handy when it comes to last minute party gifts. It will cost you less than $5. And it’s usually open 24 hours! The magic wonderland that I’m referencing is none other than McDonald’s. More »
Avril Lavigne Is The McRib and Other McDonald Celebrity Comparisons
It’s baaaack! After a long stint out of the public eye, this greasy, saucy mess known as the McRib is being reintroduced at McDonalds. While we know there is a cult following for the McRib, we mainly just find it gross, and any momentary excitement is eclipsed with an icky after-taste. This week’s divorce announcement from Avril Lavigne left us feeling similarly: we didn’t realize how much we hadn’t missed her until she came back. Go away again, Avril, and lets try again in 5 years.
This got us thinking of what other celebrities had the same conceptual properties of McDonalds fast-food. More »
McDonald’s Won’t Make You Fat – According to a new study, your desire to overeat and subsequently become obese has no correlation to the fast food industry. Right…but chances are you aren’t going to find something in your own cupboard that can be super-sized. (Food Beast)
San Fran Hippies Protest McDonald’s Menu Change
They’re not loving it: San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury district, once a refuge for those runaways and Timothy Leary followers, is now being taken over by the man. No, it’s not the fact that there is a McDonald’s in the area, because that’s been there for years. Rather, it’s the disappearance of the dollar menu that has so many sidewalk residents up in arms.

McDonald’s Food Frozen In Time – These fast-food hamburgers and fries will look the same on the day you get them as they will 137 days from now, and also twelve years from now. Unfortunately, I still love putting non-bio-degradable “food” in my body. (via GrubStreet)
Would You Trust McDonald’s With Your Seafood Cuisine?
No, we’re not talking Filet-O-Fish here: McDonald’s is rolling out the McShrimp burger in Germany, and maybe we’re crazy but it looks kind of…good? Okay, hear us out: If you’re the type of person that’s got no ish with ordering the fried clams from White Castle or the shrimp basket at Popeye’s, then actually this new burger is probably one of the healthier and tastier food choices you can make on the fast food menu.
Just hear us out: The shrimp… More »
Just So There Is Absolutely No Misunderstanding On Where McDonald’s Stands On The Gays – McD’s exec Don Thompson tries to explain the incredibly offensive French commercial for their fast food line and comes off looking even more homophobic. So there. (via AdFreak)
Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie make McDonald’s staff crazy!
When Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie took their kids through the McDonald’s drive-thru the other day, the staff got a little bit, how should I put it? A little bit excited. To say the least.
It makes me laugh, because the person actually serving Brad manages to be so calm and collected (and professional, props to that!) when it’s time to do the job, but behind the scenes, when the drive-thru window is closed, everyone is going… More »
The Jolie-Pitt family hits the drive-thru again
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie took the kids for a lunch pick-up at McDonald’s again, taking a quick cruise through the drive-thru to get meals and water bottles for the whole family. Just like last week, Brad drove while Angelina sat in the passenger seat, with all the kids in the back. You can see photos of the family here.
I know not everyone agrees with them eating at McDonald’s but it’s just such a normal everyday family… More »
