McDonald’s fans vow to ‘boycott’ over Grinch Happy Meal and fume they’ve ‘betrayed the nation’
A boycott has been started by MCDONALD’S fans who are furious that Grinch Happy Meals will not be available in the US.
Foodies are outraged, saying the business has “betrayed the nation” since the meals were introduced in the UK and Canada.
A family card game and cute Grinch plush toys are included with the special holiday meals.
However, it appears that this holiday season, Americans will have to do without them.
Using a number of hashtags to highlight her outrage, a furious Facebook post has called on Americans to avoid dining there.
“Let me just get this straight,” says Brianna Marie Gordy in her post. You award the Grinch cups to Canada.

The toys featured puzzles, wallets, erasers, and stencils, and the kid’s meal boxes were fashioned to resemble circus wagons.
Numerous McDonald’s kid-friendly meals have been themed since the launch of the Happy Meal with a circus theme.
The chain has created themed kid’s meals with particular toys, packaging, and even special menu items by partnering with well-known films, TV series, and characters over the years.
Even with the rallying cry, the boycott is currently having trouble gaining traction.
“Do you know HOW MANY people have sent it to me & I’m like yea not forUSA!” is one of the comments and ten reactions to the post.
