McDonald’s Introduces “McDumpster Supreme”
In an effort to appeal to cutting edge hipster’s and the frugal extreme who have taken to dumpster-diving, McDonald’s last week debuted it’s new McDumpster Supreme hamburger.
“While many think of McDonald’s as a legacy company, we want to show that we’re in tune with cutting edge trends and relevant in today’s fast moving cultural landscape,” said Don Hogart of McDonald’s media team. “We think the McDumpster Supreme does that.”
The McDumpster Supreme burger will be priced at a very competitive 49¢, about half of the cost of the items on Taco Bell’s dollar menu.
“Our research shows that minimalists and frugal customers want to be on the cutting edge, and what better way to enjoy being in their tiny houses than with a McDumpster Supreme!”, said Janice Crews, senior marketing researcher at McDonald’s. In a robotic, monotone, and clearly scripted from focus group voice, Crews added “Millennials and socially conscious customers want choices that fit into their ethos of sustainability and ecological stewardship, and McDonald’s has clearly added value in that space with the McDumpster Supreme”.
Critics of McDonald’s gave the chain a C- for even realizing dumpster diving was a thing, but noted the irony of the chain getting it’s ingredients from trash.
This could be a thing! It’s the result from backlash of the avocado toast bashing wave.
outstanding as always. you fart in a tiny house and everybody in the house knows it. i worked at mc d’s in my youth and you would be surprised at what tasted good with a run through the fry-0-lator.
fry-o-later…. America’s great contribution to the world
The irony of the chain getting it’s ingredients from trash. Oh this is rich! My first job was McDonald’s, back when a hamburger did cost about 49 cents. At that time, we made food ahead, and had to toss out anything not sold in the next 10 minutes. The dumpster was a treasure at that time. Too bad it wasn’t a “thing” yet!
You and Freddy both worked at McDonald’s, now things make sense!!!
Is it bad that every time I hear “McDonalds”, I still want to go get a McDouble and large fries -___-
uhhh… maybe?
Ok. You have now ruined McDonald’s for me! Thanks a lot.😋
I do what I can 🙂

Frugal, minimalist, sustainability, socially conscious, fair trade, organic, local, seasonal… The McDumpster Supreme sounds perfect for the McFrugal household! 😉
They had you in mind Doc!
LOL oh man you are getting this satire gems dialed in aren’t you 🙂
Have a great weekend and thanks for the laugh
I appreciate it Chris!
I am an unashamed fan of McDonalds…I can use all the pity out there! It is a tough group to be in 🙁
HAHA
Everybody’s gotta have their thing!
The question is, would anyone notice if they gave it a different name? 😉
I would love to try and find out, what a great experiment that would be!!
How do you come up with these? 😀
bourbon 🙂

can’t beat a McSoup – get your flask of hot water – run into McDonald’s and quickly pump that juicy red ketchup into your flask – keeping pumping until the condiment police come get you – put the lid back on and run!!!
When safe, give your flask a good shake and drink your McSoup at your leisure.
Now THAT is hilarious!!! And it would be the healthiest thing they serve, although I’m sure they still manage to make their ketchup packets unhealthy too
It’s mostly corn syrup and water – and the jury is out on whether corn syrup is just bad for you or the worst thing for you.
I’m not knocking the McDumpster Supreme – they’re usually as fresh as this kind of food can get, and if you use the number on the back of the receipt to phone in your comments, you can get a code for a half-price coupon for your next visit, which makes it an even better value. I’m just saying, I prefer mine without the McDumpster Special Sauce. I don’t know what exactly they are putting in it (besides the usual, genetically-modified high fructose corn syrup and chemical flavor additives), but that color of grey is just a turn off for me – I’m not lovin’ it.
HA – LOVE it! Great stuff…. if anyone could figure out how to genetically modify HFCS it would be the fine and demented folks at McDonalds
