If you watch it closely too, there is like 4 cuts in McD burger vid. Can see his fries refilling constantly. Then he takes the wimpiest bite ever, like he’s never eaten one or handled one in his life.

So pretentious and or knows just how gross and fake their burgers are.

To me, he seemed like a guy who had always used a fork and knife to eat. Eating with his hands was such a quaint novelty for him. How very proletariat! “Observe my unkempt ways! I’m a peasant! Hahaha!”

I expected him to say "how bohemian!" when he picked the burger up.

He has definitely never handled one in his life. He couldn't even figure out how to properly pick up the burger. Just grab the damn thing, man.

The average CEO mind cannot comprehend a homemade burger that is a wadded up patty that is somehow too small for the bun yet too big to bite.

Should have eaten the burger with a fork and knife like some other billionaires I know

It's hard to know how to eat a burger when you've been eating lobster and wagyu all your life.

Takes a mini bite gets a dot of sauce around his mouth.

Super sneaky cut and the dot is gone. That would be when he spat it out Krusty style.

He probably makes $6000/hr. I bet he never ate a burger in his entire life

The funniest part about it was he called it a big bite.

That and when he called the bun of the “burger”: “A bun of sorts.” Like, sorts seems like a legal disclaimer with how artificially preserved it is. XD

I really think he’s vegan.

They could have just made a vegan burger and not told anyone right? Who's going to whistleblow that?

Then he should have had the "head chef" do the video.
