The Mac: Now At Participating Fast Food Outlets

Picture 7

McDonald’s Italy just launched a new, limited-edition hamburger called the Mac. It boasts “stone baked bread, Emmental cheese, choice beef, tomato and lettuce.”

The tag line above says “Discover our new creation available from September 16.”

Don’t tell Apple, they might not like that “il Mac,” as it’s called in Italian in exactly the same way as the computer, is ready for speedy, cheap consumption.

    This burger was available in Spain for some months too

    Germany also had that burger… 2 years ago, I think.

    Really? is this the only news worthy junk you could conjure up? A loose association between an Italian burger and Apple’s Mac? Pathetic!

    why do non-u.s. mcdonald’s get better food than we do?

  • shaunathan

    Agreed Firesign, European and Japanese McDonnalds get much better items. And I live 10 minutes from the first McDonnalds… SUPPORT THE HOME LAND!!

    oh well, at least I have my MacBook to keep my company as I lunch at a restaurant..
