THE PICKIEST EATER IN THE WORLD: MCDONALD'S AND COCA COLA: BETTER TOGETHER!

I just attended one of the most memorable events yesterday. One that despite having us tuck away our smart phones and go on a digital time out for the whole duration of the event, still became fun and most importantly, engaging!

Because pretty much everyone is so dependent on their smart gadgets for entertainment and for connecting with people, we actually spend more and more time starring at our gadgets' screens and less and less time looking and appreciating the real world. This fact is really kind of sad and frankly makes me a little bit scared of the digital future ahead of us. But that's exactly what McDonald's Philippines and Coca Cola Philippines are taking a stand on. Taking time to get offline and enjoy making connections old and new. Connect with your friends and loved ones without a digital screen in between.

“Today, together as well, McDonald’s and Coca-Cola are taking a stand that real-life connections fuel our digital lives and enrich our relationships”

And so in lieu of this campaign, the two said iconic global brands are launching their new product that is designed for a warmer live gathering while enjoying McDonald's burgers and fries, and a tall glass of cold Coca Cola. It's the BFF Burger Bundle Product!

The BFF Burger Bundle is a humongous package that's good for a group of 3 or 4, and which you can customize! For only P399 for a group of 3 and P599 for a group of 4, each of you get great meals with this new cool BFF fries (which by the way I think is really cool!) and thirst-quenching Coca Cola!

What's great about this customizing thing is that you can choose from the seven burger selection of McDonald's (including the big favorites such as Big Mac, Quarter Pounder, and my personal favorite McChicken, and more).

Or if you're more of a chicken kind of person, there's also the BFF Chicken Bundle where you can choose between 1 pc. Chicken McDo + Spaghetti, or a 2 pc Chicken McDo + rice. Again, it comes with the huge BFF Fries and regular coke!

But if you just feel like having the famous fries + McFloat combo (they go really well together), there's also the BFF Fries and Float combo is theirs to enjoy for an affordable price of only Php 150! Affordable, right?

Head on over to the McDonald's nearest you and start sharing this affordable bundles for sharing and at the same time make real connections! Real connections with the ones you love, or even with new found friends. After all, nothing beats the warmth of a real hug or smack compared to an emoticon!

The BFF Bundle meals are available for dine-in, take-out, or even drive-thru in all branches nationwide! (Not available for breakfast)
