Amazing marketing stunt. We're all talking about it. And I can bet many people bought the "product" just to try how it really tastes.

To be fair, he failed to eat a McDonald's burger not human food.

Out of the loop... who is this reptilian?

Mcdonald’s did a promotional video where the ceo (this guy^) ate their new burger on camera to show even the ceo likes their burgers, but people thought he seemed like he’d never eaten a burger and now he’s presumed reptilian until further proof.

Also, he takes a tiny bite which he then proudly shows to the camera - as if to say "look, I really did it!"

The worst part is it made other reptilian CEOs try to cash in on the fad of eating their own slop in front of a camera as a sort of marketing stunt.

hello fellow human, i would like to consume one of your PRODUCTS ,ade with homogenized cured cheese, and processed wheat and seaseme seads buns and "edible" consumables.

He also awkwardly refered to the burger as "the product." If that doesn't get you to want their new burger, i don't know what will, and apparently neither does he.

"The product fulfils nutritional requirements and satiates the hunger sense among the human species."

Fulfilling nutritional requirements is very optimistic for fast food.

Exceeds calorie quota might be more accurate.

At least "product" is honest framing: it's passionless, mass-produced garbage sold by an international megacorp. I genuinely prefer a CEO saying that over pretending to care or personally enjoy it.

he tried to eat a burger what he called "products" like a human in a commercial, or a video.

[–] Tikiporch@lemmy.world 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Maybe McDonald's CEO? Promoting a new meal there, he referred to the hamburger by saying "I love this product."

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 5 points 2 hours ago

he never ate human food before, its probably all soylent or he mainlined while he hibernates in hyperbaric chamber.

I just farted a gaseous product for him to try. I'll put it in a happy meal.
