McDonalds new fruit and walnut salad!

[Deja Q]

And the new catchphrase is "get the buzz!"

What happened to "i'm lovin' it"?

So, would ypu spend $4 for a fruity salad you could buy all the fruit in bulk for and have salads every day for 1/4th the price or less?!

1. and not have to dispose of the plastic dish!!!!

It is called cashing in on the nation's laziness. Have you seen what they sell to American mothers to give their kids for breakfast? Pop tarts and cocoa puffs?? Anyone wonder why we are getting fatter and stupider?

2. I still miss their "Have sex with our burgers" campaign

:D

5. !

I missed that one! A bit of a pity... :D

3. That is just lazy.

Get the buzz? Looks like Madison ave. is problems coming up with shit to sell their shit. Isn't "buzz" a PR term for "product word of mouth"? Fucking shitty ass McDonalds.

4. Plus -- get this -- the walnuts are candy-coated.

Did they do a focus group or something and discover that Americans don't like nuts unless they're honey-roasted??

Or is it all part of the "put them in a sugar fog and they won't notice what's really happening" campaign?

6. Yes, its a matter of convenience.

Esp. for single people. Making a fruit salad for one doesnt work, you end up throwing out it before one person can finish it. Same thing for salads.

8. I'm single, fruity, and eat fruit all the time.

Of course I'm not everybody, and my inadvertant self-absorbed nature proves why I'm still single, but I see your point and has validity. :D

7. Mrs. V. had one. Said it completely sucked. An infuriating waste of money.

9. Oh, and with their calorie dense topping!

I love how they made the "large" size as big as the "Super Size" when they faded 'super size' out. Plus, they've opened a 24 hour drive through- because we all know McDonalds has our best interests in mind...

10. Give credit where credit is due.

That salad beats the hell out of a double quarter pounder with cheese, nutritionally speaking.

B-)

11. It's not bad

The nice thing about the salad is you can put it in your passenger seat and munch on it as you drive.

Hopefully the $4 version has a bit more fruit than the $3 version I got Friday.
