McDonald's 'happy' mascot is terrifying | USA NOW
McDonald's unveiled a new mascot and customers ain't 'lovin' it'. But the fast food chain isn't the only one with unusual mascots.
A new McDonald's Happy Meal mascot named Happy is aimed at getting kids to eat healthfully.
But is Happy scary? Some on Twitter think so.
According to a McDonald's release, Happy "will encourage kids to enjoy fruits, vegetables, low-fat dairy and wholesome beverages such as water or juice." The fast-food chain introduced the mascot along with the announcement of a low-fat yogurt side option.
But tweeters were more focused on Happy's demeanor, describing the mascot as creepy.
