The Mc.Donalds Effect

The Mc.Donalds Effect is when expectations don't meet reality.

It is called "The Mc.Donalds Effect" because the pictures of the food you see on Mc.Donalds never look the same when you recieve the food.

It can be seen in many instances, such as buying stuff off the internet. Or in general using the "Wish" app
Person 1: "Yo. Bro, I gotta show you these new kicks I bought of the internet, they are sick and we're only 25$.

Person 2: "They're SICK! When do they arrive?
Person 1: "Next Monday..."
The next Monday arrives
Person 2: "Why aren't you wearing your new shoes?"
Person 1: "They looked terrible when they arrived... Nothing like the picture in the ad"
Person 2: "That sucks man.... Guess thats the risk of buying stuff on the internet."

This is an example of "The Mc.Donalds Effect"

When the public consciousness recognizes or makes references to a retired brand or object, despite being removed.
Seeing the new design for Chuck E. Cheese is unreal, I don’t even remember seeing this version. I’m so used to the 2000’s design. Must be the Rockstar Effect.
