Ever since its small-screen debut in 1994, Friends has gone on to become a bonafide cultural phenomenon. Despite its age-old release, the sitcom continues to bring in significant viewership across different streaming platforms. As such, fans have heartily celebrated the 30th anniversary since Friends first premiered on NBC. In a bid to commemorate the special occasion, certain McDonald’s outlets have decided to launch a dedicated Friends adult Happy Meal box.
McDonald’s Spain to celebrate Friends’ 30th anniversary with special Happy Meal box
McDonald’s outlets in Spain have launched a unique Happy Meal to honor Friends’ 30th anniversary.
As reported by Deadline, the special edition combo would allow consumers to collect figurines of the show’s central characters. Instead of containing toys from their usual roster, McDonald’s Spain’s newly launched Happy Meal box would carry figurines of all the six Friends.
The specifically curated combo pack also comes with an array of burger options. Interested buyers can choose from a varied selection of Big Mac, Quarter Pound, McRoyal Delux, CBO, or McChicken, alongside the standard fries and a beverage. Additionally, McDonald’s has included a special sauce, known as Monica’s Marinara, in their freshly released Friends Happy Meal box.
McDonald’s Spain announced their collaboration with the beloved series in a fun ad spot. The fast-food giants then took to social media to share the clip with the general public. Furthermore, they added an extra touch to their announcement video by staging one of their outlets as the iconic Central Perk coffee shop from Friends. At the time of writing, it is unknown if McDonald’s plans to launch the said Happy Meal in the US as well.
On the content front, Max is conducting a game show to celebrate the 30th premiere anniversary of Friends. Renowned comedian Whitney Cummings has been recruited to host the show, which is set to be a four-part event.
