Chicken ni Joy: McDonalds’ new TVC gets mixed reactions online


MANILA, Philippines – Netizens are abuzz over their discovery of another option to satisfy their fried chicken craving. This new talk of the town is a breather from the usual trending posts about sports, politics, and heavy traffic.

In a new TV advertisement released by McDonald’s Philippines, Pinays revealed two things that they share in common: their names, Joy, and their love for McDonald’s best tasting Chicken McDo.

The new and improved Chicken McDo is now made juicier and tastier with just the right crunch! Marinated, breaded, and fried to a golden perfection, it will surely make every moment joyful that you would crave for it over and over again, just like the Joys featured in the TVC saying #ChickenMcMcMcDo.

From the outside, the Chicken McDo has a moderately flaky and crisp coating that crackles when you bite. On the inside, you will taste the tender and juicy meat that is firmly balanced with salt and savory flavor.

Always served hot and fresh with the signature gravy, the Chicken McDo provides more flavorful moments spent by Joys with their families and loved ones. They couldn’t help but admit that the favorite fried chicken of Joys in the Philippines is the Chicken McDo.

Since the video’s online launch last April 10, it has spread organically in the past 48 hours – with 278,000 views, 4,200 reactions and 4,400 shares on Facebook alone. At 855 comments and counting, the comments section reveals varying sentiments. As netizens questioned how the ad inadvertently promoted the competition, some also dare to point out the not-so-obvious.
