The Slog has its panties in a bunch over latest McDonald's menu item. Cornichon goes ho-hum, having read about the development earlier this week in the Wall Street Journal. The campaign promotes a "new" Snack Wrap that essentially recycles the breaded chicken used in Mickey D's Chicken Select strips, tops it with shredded lettuce and cheese, adds a few squirts of ranch sauce and wraps it in a flour tortilla for a buck twenty-nine. Count on Slog, though, to see the billboard as a huge penis.
What would Slog say to this upcoming story in Consumer Reports about McDonald's coffee, we wonder? Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts and Burger King all come in for drubbing; compared with "decent" brew at McDonald's. Gulp.
