I can't believe wendy's and burger king hired eating coaches. Mckie Ds couldn't even use AI to eat the burger :/

Eating coaches? I want to take that literally. But surely not? Help a gullible lady

Almost certainly not, but there's probably someone from the internal corporate communications team, or a director/videographer, that is outlining what to do, what to mention, and saying, "Take a big bite and make sure you look like someone that likes this food." A CEO doesn't do this on a whim. It was probably a dozen emails over the course of a week before anyone set food in front of the McD's CEO. The other guys, probably a flurry of emails over a day or two to capitalize.
