    I strongly suspect the whole thing is guerilla marketing. I truly do not care if a ceo likes the food his company makes. Memes like this are just part of the marketing

      Mcdonald’s did a promotional video where the ceo (this guy^) ate their new burger on camera to show even the ceo likes their burgers, but people thought he seemed like he’d never eaten a burger and now he’s presumed reptilian until further proof.

        Also, he takes a tiny bite which he then proudly shows to the camera - as if to say “look, I really did it!”

        He also awkwardly refered to the burger as “the product.” If that doesn’t get you to want their new burger, i don’t know what will, and apparently neither does he.

          “The product fulfils nutritional requirements and satiates the hunger sense among the human species.”

          At least “product” is honest framing: it’s passionless, mass-produced, hyperpalatable garbage sold by an international megacorp. I genuinely prefer a CEO saying that over pretending to care or personally enjoy it.

        The worst part is it made other reptilian CEOs try to cash in on the fad of eating their own slop in front of a camera as a sort of marketing stunt.

          If you saw the “bite” he proudly displays as if saying “I ate this much!” yeah… he knows. Also? I don’t recall seeing him swallow it in the video, so I’m doubling down on how right you are here.

      Maybe McDonald’s CEO? Promoting a new meal there, he referred to the hamburger by saying “I love this product.”

    Amazing marketing stunt. We’re all talking about it. And I can bet many people bought the “product” just to try how it really tastes.
