I agree with Justin. This kinda marketing crap makes me sick! It's pathetic and even worse, people buy into. Why do companies think that just becasue you hire some models, throw some ethnic colors around, and have everyone smiling and consuming your product, then you're being authentic?

wow. that shit is terrible. and the saga continues. no better than how they have rap-style commercials and radio spots. and Mc Donalds isn't the only offender with this crap.

(Sep 8 05, 14:50)i was jsut watching a documentary about Zambia, about so many orphaned children who hardly have food to survive. the parents died of aids..
and despite some help from the west children are still getting sick of starvation or bad food...
it's not like i see friggin' McD doing something about that, huh?
instead they are just talking themselves into another demographic with some "we understand your culture" bullshit.
fuck i never eat there again.
wha..
i haven't been there for a loooong time, let's keep it this way.

yup Crouwel, very sad. The UN does nothing, Europe does nothing, US does nothing, leaders there are corrupt as f*ck. It's a big messy mess.

it's funny, I thought the same thing about that dog... it's a wierd setup; asian stereotype, asian stereotype, asian stereotype, fat dog. Hmm. I'm not big on conspiricy theories, it's just idiotic. Like the whole site. I love how they have pics of dudes who are eating McD's after running around in dragon costume. Oh brother.

its a segmented market per demographic
i dont find it offensive nor done in poor taste. it could be interperted as corp america's recognition toward the minority.
i see it as advertising on BET or UPN. you see the same car commerical but with black people in those commericals.
also this campiang helps Asians
Ronald McDonald House Charities®/Asian Students Increasing Achievement (RMHC®/ASIA) Scholarship program.yes at the end they are trying to sell more burgers but at the same time they are giving back to a degree. not everyone who eats McDs are happy white ppl.
- JazX0
yep, don't make me start on BET and black advertising targets, that's ridiculous. you wonder why some are so huge and fat. drink wrong, eat wrong, no excercise, etc. same for many groups

It's crap like this that embarrases me as an Amercian and ever stepping into this place. I have kids and they like to go for the Happy Meal toys and the play gym, but no more. Or maybe I'll go to just let my kids use the gym and have them all wear "I Am American" shirts.
- MrDinky0
mind you this campaign not geared toward asian countries its toward north american asians. just a note
- TheTick0
That some dumbass got paid to come up with that ticks me off.
Hey is there an American Moss Burger yet? Now that is a tasty asian burger...
- therealescobar0
why is it wrong for somebody to be proud to be asian american? at least they are having a culture to be proud of and also being a proud american at the same time.
