McDonald's 'Make Burger History' Site Hijacked With Offensive Burger Ideas
"Just come in to a participating 'Create Your Taste' McDonald's and
order your Creation at the self ordering kiosk," McDonald's
promised. But its failure to consider what pranksters might dream up
online has left the company red-faced, with the website overrun by
racist, homophobic and otherwise offensive suggestions...
...The burger concepts ranged from the mild, such as "Bag of
Lettuce" (literally just a pile of lettuce leaves) and "The
Carbonator" (seven burger buns, no filling), to X-rated, including
"Girth" (a stack of seven undressed burger patties) and "Ron's
Creamy Surprise" (a pile of mayonnaise, best left unexplained). But
many went totally tasteless, creating burgers with names like
"Mosque at Ground-Zero," "Rektal Prolapse" and "Toddler Body Bag,"
some of which ended up on the website's front page before it was
shut down entirely overnight.
