Let’s demand they turn McDonald’s PlayPlaces into Astroworld carnivals

McDonald’s is going through it right now, so it’s probably with great excitement that the chain announced a partnership with rapper Travis Scott. From September 8 until October 4, McDonald’s will be serving the Please Millennials and Gen Z, Take Some Interest in Us Meal “Travis Scott Meal,” which consists of a quarter pounder with cheese, bacon and lettuce, a Sprite, and fries with BBQ sauce. According to CNN, it’s the first time a celebrity has had his name on a menu item since the McJordan in the 90s.

Scott is at least the third rapper to get into the food game recently. Tyga launched TYGA BITES, a “celebrity-owned virtual dining concept,” aka chicken nuggets you order through Grubhub. And in Chicago, Wiz Khalifa is opening HotBox by Wiz, a delivery-only restaurant with things like “Mac and Yellow” mac and cheese. Both Scott and McDonald’s are reportedly “searching for charities to support during the month-long promotion,” though none have been announced yet.
