How to Destroy an Annoying McDonalds Toy
1 comment
by Joe Schatz, Fatherhood Examiner
This past weekend we made a trip to Cape May and on our way home the duo of toys sounded off around 200,000 times much to my dismay. Around karate chop sound ninety-five-thousand, I realized that I now hated Jack Black and I also hated karate chop sound effects (which I proudly make on my own from time to time). When a toy offends your senses as much as the Kung Fu Panda toy did for me you have little recourse but to simply take out your frustrations on said toy. Feel free to watch the following instructional video:
Fun Facts about McDonald's Happy Meals:
- McDonald's is the worlds largest toy distributor due to the popularity of the "Happy Meal"
- The very first Happy Meal was served in 1979
- The first Happy Meal was the Circus Wagon Happy Meal in McDonaldland Fun-To-Go in St. Louis
- In Brazil the Happy Meal is known as "McLanche Feliz" (Happy McSnack in Portuguese)
- In Quebec the Happy Meal is known as "Joyeux Festin" (literally meaning "Happy Feast" in French)
- Happy Meals are served at 31,000 restaurants in more than 100 countries
Have Happy Meal toys ever inspired you to either throw them out or destroy them? How do your kids feel about the toys from different fast food restaurants? Do they have favorites?
