McDonald's has totally jumped the shark

I saw this ad this morning.  It is a cheeseburger, to which they have added a filet-o-fish patty and a chicken patty. Plus the accompanying (sp) garnishes.  It must have been 8 inches tall.  I fervently wished I was dreaming, we own stock in this company and this marketing is disturbing.

This combo makes me want to heave before eating it.

There are four new Hack's on their menu.  I have been watching some of my favorite Youtube people trying them out and most like the combo's.  You have to put the items together yourself.   The Big Mac, Chicken and Fish seems way too much but most seem to like it.

@depglass    Sounds like a disgusting mess appealing only to teen-age boys known to have no taste buds and who will eat virtually anything.

It gets people talking, I think that is it's only purpose.

Re: McDonald's has totally jumped the shark

I agree with everyone so far!  This does seem to be over the top, and the idea of the beef,chicken, fish all at once has me kind of ill.  This from the company that once had a Michelin 5 Star hot apple pie, ruined it, and will NOT bring back the little rectangular piece of heaven that I miss so much.  McBOO to YOU McDonalds!

Re: McDonald's has totally jumped the shark

The hack is hilarious, you have to buy each one separately & assemble them yourself, that means throwing buns away too... what the heck McD, lol.

Re: McDonald's has totally jumped the shark

It's not something I'd be interested in but then I've never understood having more than one protein in your meal anyway (Surf & Turf, a gumbo with seafood, sausage and chicken, etc.)
