Every once in a while a brand trolls customers as a publicity stunt. It seems McDonald’s might be doing the same with its bizarre recent text. Now we’re wondering, are they trolling us or is this a legit publicity stunt?

A few Netizens shared their experience with the fast-food chain asking;

“Podina le aun.”

Here’s how they reacted. People had witty responses to the bizarre text too. Like asking why would the food chain ask questions like a member of the extended family, as though you live in a joint family?

“Why is #Mcdonalds trying to be my first cousin type #family? #Marketing”

Or a brown husband doing groceries. Too specific if you ask us.

 

Others just called the moment a marketing gimmick. Gimmick or not, it’s definitely working. It’s got us all talking about McDonald’s and this hilarious text.

However, what is this publicity stunt for really? Is this about a new product?

While mint and mint chutney are a must-have desi staple, why is McDonald’s asking? Is the international food chain trolling customers? We admit it is hilarious though.

Others weren’t about to let the fast food chain off the hook with just mint.

“What’s this behavior @McDonaldsPK make me a whole burger! #McDonalds #Peshawar”

 

Which burger though? At least this Netizen knows what she wants.

“@McDonaldsPK Please le ao podina per McArabia me rakh kay. (Please bring mint but inside a McArabia)”

 

Someone else wants to ditch fast food for chicken and yogurt instead. Healthier choices, huh?

 

Others trolled the eatery back.

 

Ohh that comeback.

 

However, not everyone was amused. It does feel like trolling after all.

Didn’t expect a marketing stunt to be triggering.
