McDonald’s Tweets About New Frork, Twitter Angrily Sounds Off

Twitter users replied to McDonald's new "frork" with many different responses. Most of the reactions were not positive in the slightest sense of the word.
When McDonald's first announced the "frork," the company did so by releasing a tongue-in-cheek video starring Anthony Sullivan, the infomercial pitchman.
"When savoring these recipes, there's a hitch you just can't ditch: the topping dropping...Wait. Is this a real problem? Probably not. But good news: We solved it anyway!" he says in the video.
The launch of the utensil came at the same McDonald's' introduced the new pico guacamole, sweet BBQ bacon and maple bacon dijon sandwiches. Many were disappointed to learn that the utensil was only available on May 5. Several Twitter users explained that they attempted to get the "frork" only to be told that it was no longer available.
While some people took issue with the product itself, others were angry that McDonald's chose to release a new utensil when there are other items that many customers want. Some folks on Twitter would prefer that the "ice cream and coffee machines" were all working flawlessly before the company worried about releasing a new utensil.
Several users wanted McDonald's to focus on bringing back beloved products that are only available for a limited time, such as the McRib, or even the Szechuan sauce.
In case you find yourself brimming with curiosity over the new "frork," McDonald's actually setup a toll-free number – 844-MCD-FRORK (844-623-3767 – that you can call to get more information about the utensil.
