McDonald’s is a company in transition.  The old favorites seem to be losing popularity; kids these days just don’t want Big Macs anymore.  That means time for a new invention, and it appears that McDonald’s is taking some cues from Japan by getting creative with their hamburgers.  McDonald’s is adding three new sandwiches to their menu, a Pico Guacamole sandwich, a Sweet BBQ Bacon sandwich, and a Maple Bacon Dijon sandwich.  But it’s not the burgers that are getting people talking, it’s the new McDonald’s frork.  What’s a frork?  It’s a silicon tool that turns french fries into topping-soppers.

“When savoring these recipes, there’s a hitch you just can’t ditch: The topping dropping,” says famous infomercial pitchman Anthony Sullivan, recruited to help sell the frork to consumers. “This is a real problem. Wait, sorry is this a real problem?  Probably not, but good news we solved it anyway.”

Good news, if you’re looking for more information on the frork, McDonald’s has a way to educate you.  Call McDonald’s frork hotline at 1-844-MCD-FRORK, where you can find out information about how to get a frork and coupons to try the new sandwiches.  The silicon utensils will come free with every purchase of a new Signature Crafted Recipes sandwich while supplies left on May 5.  The sandwiches can be purchased as burgers, grilled chicken, or fried chicken options.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

It’s not every day that a Twitter account dedicated to promoting McDonald’s as a business, but now it’s made a statement that will either increase business or cause a boycott and hashtag frenzy.  It’s all based on how you feel about President Donald Trump.  If you’re a fan, you’re booing.  If you’re not a fan, […]

There’s a certain charm to having streaming services at your beck and call.  I don’t get to watch as much as I want, but when I get a chance to watch something on demand, I usually take it.  I love Netflix, and I’ve watched more bad movies on Netflix than I have any right to […]

There’s the concrete jungle.  There’s the urban cowboy.  There’s all kinds of farm and animal metaphors that concern New York City, but none of them actually reflect the actual animals.  The bull market on Wall Street has little to nothing to do with actual bulls, so any time you see a strange animal loose on […]

As of right now, the United States Department of Agriculture has 17.8 million pounds of pork belly in storage.  Pork belly is the delicious part of the pig that turns into bacon when cured and fried.  It tastes good, smells better, and is even good for you!  It seems like a lot, but it’s actually […]

There’s a new game genre out there.  Part simulation, part social game, part physical challenge, escape rooms are really popular.  You wander through a scenario, stuff happens, and you have to try to figure your way out in a certain amount of time.  I’ve done similar things, but I haven’t done a full-fledged escape room […]

There’s just a constant state of flux in one of the web’s biggest companies and the pre-Google version of Google.  Yahoo, limping along while its former corporate child Alibaba has become a major player in the online world.  Yet poor old Yahoo keeps struggling along, but maybe a new name will yield new fortunes?  Yahoo […]
