It's for content creators to use as advertising, so basically streamers, youtubers, twitterati, and whatever other social media users. These types of ads are meant for them as product placement where they will order this wacky zany thing and their viewers will see it. For other similar things, see the poptarts butter collaboration, kfc scented fireplace log, oscar mayer bologna face mask, etc.
>>17360850
That's targeted to a broader audience as there is no assembly required.

>being this much of a retarded businesslet
Sales of those “items” will be inconsequential at best. People who already do that McDonald’s hack shit might go for the novelty of being able to “order it by name”, which is what the marketing is focusing on. A few people who haven’t heard of that shit may try it.
The campaign itself is effectively zero-cost beyond paying someone in the marketing dept to make those images. There’s no limited unique item or packaging cost.
However, it’s generating publicity for the brand overall, which is clearly the point. It seems to be effective because people like you are constantly posting threads about it.
You’re thinking about McDonald’s, writing about McDonald’s, and posting McDonald’s advertising images.

People that are too retard to realize that the menus have shrunk due to the government forced shortages and they need to keep adding new items to bring in the fatties. This allows them to add menu items while only using the shit they're allowed to have. Fat retards won't notice and will actually get excited for it.
