McDonald’s latest “Famous Order” is a group occasion.
The fast-food burger chain on Sunday announced its latest “Famous Orders” collaboration, with the celebrity couple Cardi B and Offset.
Much like previous Famous Orders in the two-year-old campaign, this one largely features items already on McDonald’s menu. Starting on Tuesday, customers can order a Cardi B & Offset Meal, which features enough food for two people to share: A Cheeseburger with BBQ sauce, a Quarter Pounder with Cheese, one large order of fries, a large Coca-Cola, a large Hi-C Orange Lavaburst and an apple pie.
The meal will come in special packaging featuring a Valentine’s Day card.
“Let me tell you, McDonald’s is date night done right,” Offset said in a statement. “It doesn’t have to be all boujee. Get your date, grab some good food and have fun. That’s it.”
McDonald’s is using the meal as the centerpiece for a campaign highlighting its restaurants’ role in date nights. The company highlighted these moments in an ad on Super Bowl Sunday while noting some customers’ drive-thru dates, engagement photoshoots and even weddings.
McDonald’s Famous Orders campaign, which started in 2020 with the Travis Scott Meal and continued with other promotions featuring celebrities such as BTS and Mariah Carey.
Celebrity meals effectively repackage existing items without resorting to limited-time offers that add more complexity to the kitchen. The campaign also ties the company into pop culture, in this case, a famous celebrity couple.
