The platform supports new business models, such as ring-sausage burger specialty concepts and restaurant chains designed to explore and commercialize the possibilities enabled by the ring format. this utility-driven category creation can produce sustained, additive growth across the market.
When I was growing up my estranged father was an executive for one of McDonalds' major suppliers and I find it bizarre. I keep thinking that anyone who actually knew their business would never talk like that. These guys are wrecking McDonalds by treating it as just shoveling crap and not caring.
Not the battle of who bit the burger. Y’all keep letting them play with your health IN YOUR FACE! 😭 He called it a PRODUCT. Not food. Not a burger. A product. 🥴 There’s no way this type of marketing is still working in 2026. 🍔 #McDonalds #Drake #MeganTheeStallion #DunkinDonuts #BurgerKing

The creator of the “Organic” label admits it’s a marketing tool that doesn’t guarantee anything. Bill Gates is the largest owner of U.S. farmland while investing in lab-grown “meat” for the masses. They sell it to you, but they won’t touch it themselves. 🙏 https://blossom.primal.net/85e0cdf35b1ace464771baf3b6e3fdd61fe5e14e517d8aa0ae1c7a81572556ad.jpg
Kale had its moment. Quinoa had its moment. Acai, cauliflower rice, oat milk — each one arrived with breathless coverage and quietly disappeared when the next thing showed up. Beef has never needed a rebrand. Nobody runs a 'steak awareness month.' There's no influencer push to 'make ribeye mainstream again.' It just exists — permanently, stubbornly — as the thing people actually want to eat. Every diet trend is just a waiting room until someone gives you permission to eat red meat again.
"McDonald's switched from beef tallow to vegetable oil in 1990. Health lobbying, bad press, they caved. The fries got noticeably worse. Everyone knows it. McDonald's knows it. They've been quietly trying to reverse-engineer the original flavor ever since — using "natural flavoring," which is a label that legally means almost anything. The health outcomes didn't improve. Cardiovascular stats didn't budge. The only clear winner: the soybean oil industry. At some point the evidence just becomes comedy."
the seed oil thing is basically the food version of fiat money. replace something that worked for thousands of years with a cheap industrial substitute, tell everyone its better, watch health outcomes get worse, blame the consumer
Five days ago I responded to the McDonald's CEO eating their new Big Arch. If you haven't watched that video, go do that. It's a full-on demonstration that he has no desire to ever eat the stuff he sells. Today I got served up an ad by McDonald's for their new product. Product. Product. Product.
