McDonald’s New Grimace Milkshake Spawns Hilarious Viral Trend

@big.logs Happy birthday Grimace! #fyp #grimace #xyzbca #foryou ♬ Dream Sweet in Sea Major – Gem‼

McDonald’s is celebrating Grimace’s birthday all month with the release of a limited time meal and purple-colored Birthday Shake.

Clearly the highlight of the celebration, the purple milkshake has inspired a hilarious yet disturbing trend on TikTok. In videos popping up everywhere, young teens are taste-testing the new Grimace shake on camera, followed by a dramatic and humorous aftermath.

It’s like something straight out of a Blumhouse movie, and each kid gets more and more creative. Bet Mickey D’s never saw this one coming.

In one video, a group of teens endearingly wished Grimace a happy birthday before taking a sip, then created several elaborate purple shake-drenched scenes. You just have to appreciate the imagination and effort. A personal fave is the kid that ends up shirtless next to a stream in a mysterious forest setting, with moody music really driving the shtick home.
