You might have seen this one trending over the weekend after a McDonald’s manager in Canada did a TV interview.
The interview was about how he won an award for guiding his store through the COVID-19 pandemic and tips and tricks for saving money when ordering. Then it quickly turned to much more interesting convo like what is Grimace?! You know the big purple guy. Is he an animal? A character? A person? Food?
The manager, Brian Bates, said Grimace is actually a taste bud. A fairly large taste bud, but that’s what he is supposed to be. Weird!
Now, there have been conflicting theories over the years that Grimace is actually a big milkshake drop, but I’m going with the taste bud theory. He looks way more like a taste bud to me.
