This video turned out really… sweet! 😎 Thanks for having me Josh, it was so much fun to be a part of this!!

3:33 For context: Grimace was introduced as a Greedy, 4-armed Monstrosity who, Like the Hamburglar and Captain Crook, goes around Stealing Milkshakes out of people hands. Even after he became Roland's Purple Friend, his fondness of Milkshakes never left him.

The fact that the Grimace Shake inspired a few indie horror games really shows how viral it was

[kawiianimekitty]

I dont think you understand how popular the grimace shake was. Three months after we discontinued it i was still getting people askingbfor the grimace shake

[awesomeocelot]

Grimace’s first appearance had him a 4 armed monster who loved to take milkshakes when nobody was looking. His next appearances had him a friend of Roland McDonald and had him only have 2 arms.

5:39 It's funny how Strider didn't realize he made an accidental pun.

RIP the Choco-Taco. That was the day we left God's light.

Fun fact: During the Progressive Era (1897-1920) in American history, Theodore Roosevelt helped create the FDA. It required companies to have a label on products that had drugs within.

Grimace actually did like shakes in his orignal villian design back then he was like the hamburglar but for drinks

[hakai]

Choco tacos were actually a thing for a couple decades as just a normal thing you could buy in most grocers, wasn't actually just a fast food thing

[Skipatronic]

The Choco Taco was top tier. I legitimately went into a depressive episode when I saw it was being discontinued

[robinkholmes]

Grimace used to be a milkshake thief, he was originally a villain with four arms hugging milkshakes.

Oh, look, Dennis is here ❤ The thing about the McDonald's baked goods is that it was...okay. It was good, but you can get the same thing at Dunkin.

One of my friends used to work at a busy McD when we were at college. Apparently they coined a term 'F*ck Off Pie' because whenever a customer complained for no reason, they offered it to them as compensation. It's because those were much easier to write off than a cheeseburger, fries or ice cream, especially since they weren't that popular.

Glad Strider didn't died trying The Grimace Shake

[christianparrish]

A cupcake sundae shake doesn't sound too bad.

I'm glad that your artwork for the McDonald's coffee case showed the truth of McDonald's guilt.
1. The parked Ford Probe, which didn't have cup-holders.
2. Her in the passenger's seat.
3. That the coffee was beyond hot. It was scalding.

Hi, Strider! So you can get churros (pronounced something more like "CHOOH-rhohs") in both Spain and Mexico, but they're made and taste differently. Mexican churros are made of fried choux paste, and are sweet; whereas Spanish churros are made with a salty dough and therefore are, well, salty. I've also seen people covering Mexican churros with cinnamon and sugar, which would be another difference (normally Spanish churros are left plain to dip in chocolate, milk or coffee; or are covered only in sugar); but I'm not sure if this is how it's finished or creative liberties.

Not me waiting for that animated video clip of the girl drinking the Grimace shake only to get eaten by a monster version of Grimace and and turn into a floating ghost

[jefferyjones]

The Grimace shake was a limited item only. It wasn't a failure.
