You have a point. Most McDonald’s are franchises, owned be individuals and by location. No reason to punish local, conservative people for what Leftist San Fran is doing. Not necessarily corporate decision.

The owners of the McDonald’s here are Christians. Franchise owners like them must feel betrayed by the corporation.

I won’t be boycotting the local McDonald’s as I’m positive they would never bring in obnoxious food packaging. I don’t eat there much, but my husband brings the kids there.

I don’t eat at McDonald’s anyways, but if I did, I would stop.

It’s easy to make your own Egg McMuffins.

That’s the best thing on their breakfast menu and anyone can make those and have some OJ to go with it.

I hadn’t heard this story. During my drive to work, there was a story about Skittles ‘celebrating’ gay pride by not producing any multi-colored skittle packages because “we’re giving up our rainbow for you.” Open a package and the skittles are all white. The company is now being attacked for being racist for having only white skittles.

I had some disgusting thoughts about how they would be served, but I’ll keep them to myself.

It has nothing to do with what the audience wants, it has everything to do with the agenda they want to push onto the audience. Not to mention Velocity is aiming to cater to the man-bun set.

If McDonalds really wants to celebrate this maybe they should shape the fries like, well....

Marketing 101: Pandering to <3% of the population, while simultaneously pi$$ing off a much larger percentage, is not a strategy for success.

Franchisers dance to the tune called by the home office.

Clearly, McDonald’s corporate has no problem with this.

Bye-bye, Ronald.

Gays have long been a marketer’s dream since they tend to have more disposable income.

They used to make a nice cigar also. That’s how I found out about the coffee...bought a box of the cigars, got the coffee thrown in with it.

Still have cigars with that name, I see:

What a smart business decision. McDonald’s ceo must have went to the same school of business administration as the ceo of Target. I’ll bet the stockholders will be pleased.

Better than McDonald’s fries. Coffee? There’s about 1000 varieties to choose from. You’ll find something. Carrot muffin? Can’t help you there.

Thanks, markomalley, but I guess I’m not supposed to enjoy this coffee lol. Both the Amazon and the Costco would not ship to Canada. I do appreciate you trying though!
