You may have seen the latest BF-GF Commercial from McDonald’s which started airing early April. However, you will no longer see it air on TV again.
McDonald’s, one of the country’s largest fast food chains, pulled out their latest TV ad in response to the call of the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) to stop airing the controversial commercial.
In the 30-second ad a little girl asks a boy if she was already his girlfriend. The boy says no, claiming girlfriends are too demanding. However, he seemingly changes his mind when the girl says all she wants is the P25 French fries at McDonald’s. The CBCP called it “very shallow” and “cheapens human relationships” because it was too superficial to point to a packet of French fries as the basis of a relationship. They further added that the two kids are even too young for that kind of relationship.
Here is the video of controversial BF-GF commercial ad:
