McDonald's Is Moving Into The Louvre... Will We See The First Mona Lisa Happy Meal? - Page 3
"The McDonald’s on the famed Champs-Elysees Avenue is the most profitable in the world".
In the world? Wow.
I also had no idea that there were already over 1000 McDonald's restaurants in France.
So I guess they figure one more can't hurt?
The one in the Louvre will probably end up outselling the Champs-Elysees Avenue location.
AND Starbucks, another more recent symbol of American culture (again, very sad) may be moving down the block from the Louvre?
I say anybody who is dumb enough to pay Starbucks for their over priced coffee concoctions can have them.
Hmmm... Remember France... those who throw stones....
But perhaps the Louvre can put a spin on this particular McDonald's location and turn it into an artsy/educational approach for the kids.
Maybe they can have the very first "Mona Lisa Happy Meal".
Or perhaps something more catchier like the "Oui Oui Happy Meal", (well... maybe not)
The kids can collect "Paintings of The Louvre Trading Cards"!
Although the painting below of Madame de Sorquainville by Jean-Baptiste Perronneau, in which he brilliantly captured the first official "purple nurple" in oil in 1749, should be left out of the Happy Meal trading card collection in my opinion.
Hey Kids! Collect Them All And Receive Free Pommes Frites!
And what about the parents?
How about a "McDavinci Sandwich"meal? It can come complete with secret codes that you must hold in front of a mirror and decipher for your chance to win a free McDe Milo shake or the grand prize of a family four pack of tickets to the Louvre. Dan Brown would be so tickled! (if this idea materializes... I want 10%)
So France... you took Jerry Lewis, (well, not really) and now you are putting a McDonald's in the Louvre?
What's next? A Dunkin Donuts selling "croissanwiches" next to the Jules Verne in the Eiffel Tower?
So will the French become chubby from all the junk food they will be consuming? Only time will tell.
Some Americans love junk food SO much, they have become quite desperate!
Just ask Darrel Medley of Jacksonville...
A Jacksonville man has been charged for extorting a Jacksonville Dunkin Donuts for a croissanwich.Darryl Andre Medley, 33, of Sherwood Road, was charged Friday by the Jacksonville Police Department with extortion and resisting a public officer.
Medley told another customer to go ahead of him in line, Capt. Billy Houston said.
