The War On Breakfast: Would You Ever Pick Taco Bell Over McDonald’s?

Posted on by Standard Reply

TacoBell_Breakfast_sign_300

Here at Daily Rehash we haven’t tried Taco Bell’s newest breakfast menu yet. Have you? Come on, tell the truth. There’s no shame here. (Maybe just a little.) Taco Bell is serious about making a name for themselves in the fast food breakfast world so much so that they’re going on the attack. In their newest ad, released yesterday, they do not beat around the bush.

But this ad isn’t the first to go directly after McDonald’s. Here’s another ad released a few weeks ago.

To counter Taco Bell’s attack, McDonald’s has offered a free small coffee to anyone who comes in for breakfast for most of April. Can the waffle taco really replace the McMuffin? Are you ready to let the McMuffin go? Both sides of the war on breakfast are speaking out on twitter.

Perhaps the only way to pick a side is to go out for a waffle taco. Pray for us.

May the war on breakfast end peacefully.

Leonardo DiCaprio Fans Are In Mourning After The Oscars: No Pizza AND No Oscar?

Posted on by Standard Reply

Calm down, nothing that BAD happened to Leonardo. As far as we know, he’s perfectly healthy. But last night at the Oscars, once again, he got shafted and didn’t win an Oscar despite being nominated multiple times before. Must be tough. You know, being attractive, rich and respected but having to live that way WITHOUT A TROPHY? How does Leonardo sleep at night?

The internet is full on depressed about his loss.

But they aren’t losing hope…

Hang in there, Leo-fans! IT WILL BE OK!

The real question is, does he regret not taking a piece of pizza from Ellen?

In her attempt to make last night the most interactive Oscars experience ever, Ellen ordered pizza for the celebrities in the audience and passed it around. However, Leo respectfully declined eating a slice giving the internet even more fodder to work with.

Jeff Gordon’s 2nd Test Drive Prank Is Amazing

Posted on by Standard Reply

Last year, race car driver Jeff Gordon teamed up with Pepsi and pranked a car salesman by asking for a test-drive and then taking him on the most insane drive of his life. After the video went viral internet blogger, Travis Okulski from Jalopnik.com, insisted that the original prank was fake and was very vocal about it.

So with the help of one of Travis’s friends, Jeff Gordon and Pepsi MAX teamed up again to prove to Travis that the prank was real. Jeff disguised himself as an ex-convict cab driver. He picks up Travis to take him to the airport and when a police officer pulls him over, he takes Travis for on a wild ride to flee from him. It’s awesome. After Travis got out of the cab, relieved, he told his friend, “I don’t care for you.” Prank accomplished! Check it out:

Here’s the original prank.

Cheerios Airs Depressing (and Manipulative) Ad During Golden Globes and Twitter Strikes Back

Posted on by Standard Reply

Unless you were in the bathroom, you probably saw the Cheerios commercial last night during the Golden Globes that either made you sad or angry or, even worse, both. Nothing gets a live-tweeting comedian more amped up.

In the ad, a mom and her son are enjoying Cheerios when he starts asking questions about Nana. Basically the commercial implies that Nana is dead but because Nana used to eat cheerios with the mom, eating cheerios with her son is like eating cheerios with dead Nana. Make sense? Just so we’re clear, we have souls and Nana’s here at Daily ReHash so yes, we recognize that the situation in this ad is sad but it’s pretty manipulative for Cheerios for force is on us like this. Here’s the ad in case you missed it:

If you just shouted “Booooooooo” at your computer, you aren’t alone. Those who were live tweeting the Golden Globes unleashed their wrath on this ad after it aired. Nobody, not even Cheerios, can manipulate twitter users into feeling emotion without their permission.

To be fair, there are some people who let the ad wash over them and reacted with the response Cheerios was most definitely hoping for.

Except for this guy.

Sorry, Cheerios. Tony the Tiger would never hurt us like this.

Velveeta Cheese Speaks Out About The #Cheesepocalypse

Posted on by Standard Reply

Yesterday, Velveeta cheese finally addressed the nation about the current Velveeta shortage we’re all enduring.

Here is their statement:
“A MESSAGE TO VELVEETA FANS IN RESPONSE TO THE CURRENT SO-CALLED CHEESEPOCALYPSE

While the current Cheesepocalypse is a difficult time for our great nation, we are incredibly humbled and appreciative of the outpouring of love and support for the Liquid Gold of Velveeta. As you have likely seen or heard by now on social networks and major media outlets, there is currently limited availability of some Velveeta products in many stores nationwide. We want you to hear directly from us that it’s true–we are experiencing a temporary scarcity of our nation’s most precious commodity: Liquid Gold. But please know that we are working tirelessly to get more Velveeta on store shelves as soon as possible and that this was in no way a “publicity stunt.” We always want Velveeta where it belongs–in your hands, in your homes and in your stomachs.

Stick with us in the coming weeks, because we want to make it up to you–and we will.

On behalf of our entire team, thank you for your support, for your understanding and–most importantly–for your love of Velveeta.

We love you.”

If you really loved us, you wouldn’t let this happen.

By the way, we had no idea that Velveeta called themselves liquid gold. That’s actually what it’s being called on the black market. Because it goes in and out the same way, as liquid gold. #PoopJoke

McDonald’s Employees Get Great Advice From McDonald’s: Don’t Eat McDonald’s

Posted on by Standard 1

Even McDonald’s doesn’t think you should eat McDonald’s all the time. It says so on their employee website. Well, it did, until word got out about it and the website was taken down.

McResourceLine.com, an internal site for employees, warned employees to be cautious of fast food. The website said, “Fast foods are quick, reasonably priced, and readily available alternatives to home cooking. While convenience and inexpensive for a busy lifestyle, fast foods are typically high in calories, fat saturated fat, sugar and salt.”

All true. Just a little strange hearing it from the mother of all fast food restaurants.

McDonald’s is facing criticism these days with many employees going on strike seeking hire wages. This website gaffe just fans the flames of controversy.

So…McDonald’s knows it’s bad for people. We know it’s bad for us. Now that we’re all on the same page, CAN WE GO BACK TO EATING?

MERRY CHRISTMAS from Coca-Cola (Throughout the Years)

Posted on by Standard 1

After the devastating typhoon in the Philippines this year, Coca-Cola decided to suspend its advertising in the Philippines and instead donate the money they would’ve spent to relief efforts. In addition to their advertising budget, they’ve also contributed over $2.5 million in cash and in-kind contributions.

santa-claus-coke-ads

So in honor of Coca-Cola’s generosity (and because, let’s get real, what is Christmas without ads of polar bears drinking Coke) let’s take a trip down memory lane to Coca Cola Christmas ads past. The fact is, Coca-Cola did a lot to shape the way we look at Christmas. For example, they’re the ones who came up with the way most of us picture Santa today thanks to an ad campaign they came up with way back in 1931 where an artist was asked by Archie Lee, an advertising executive, to draw a new way to look at Santa. He wanted a wholesome Santa to look both realisitic and symbolic. Using Clement Clark Moore’s 1822 poem “A Visit From St. Nicholas” (commonly called “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas”, Haddon Sundblom came up with the Santa we know and love today.

You had no idea Coca-Cola ruled the world, did you? Or did you?

For a Coca-Cola addict this commercial is enough to bring tears (and intense cravings).

The full version of the commercial above was actually broken into three different commercials for television.

It’s Christmas Time so Shake It Up with Natasha Bedingfield (Ad from 2011)

It’s Christmas Time so Shake It Up with Train (Ad from 2010)

This year, Coca-Cola wants the world to Do Some Good (Ad from 2013)

And of course, the polar bears.

Awwww.

Claussen Pickles: Meet Jeannie Gaffigan

Posted on by Standard Reply

Jeannie Gaffigan, Jim Gaffigan‘s hilarious wife and mother of five in New York City, has a strong twitter following. Over the last few days, Jeannie has been on a quest to get answers: do Claussen Pickles go bad if you don’t put them in the refrigerator after purchasing them.

Jeannie+Gaffigan+2011+Stand+Up+Heroes+UsQvqGGr27nl

It all started when she accidentally put the pickles in the cupboard instead of the fridge. We’ve all done it.

After a day of silence, Jeannie tweeted to them again.

Then she assures Claussen Pickles that while she still loves the pickles (but did threw the jar away), she needs answers.

She encourages her followers to discuss.

And continues to pressure Claussen Pickles to respond.

At this point, the silent treatment was getting a little ridiculous.

Then, like any good mother would, Jeannie started to worry.

Jeannie continued to tweet for truth and as a result lost many followers.

Then Jeannie called in the big guns, the mother of Claussen Pickles, the reason they were brought into this world, Kraft Foods.

Kraft Foods had nothing to say.

Even though she was losing followers, there were still thousands of fans eagerly awaiting the pickle outcome.

And then…it was time to let it go. For now.

As of Saturday afternoon, we still had NO ANSWERS.

UPDATE: In our original article, we had our facts wrong and Jeannie hadn’t opened the jar yet. We’d like to thank her for the correction.

Claussen’s twitter account hasn’t tweeeted for over a year and they only have about 1,200 followers. GET IT TOGETHER CLAUSSEN PICKLES.Thank you, Jeannie Gaffigan, for using your twitter account for good. To see more picklegate, follow Jeannie Gaffigan on twitter. Gaffigan for President!

McDonald’s Is “Gross” But We’re Lovin’ It Anyway

Posted on by Standard Reply

Listen, we should all know by now how terrible McDonald’s is for the human body. It’s been proven many times.

Morgan Spurlocked proved it in his documentary Supersize Me.

The doctors of the talk show The Doctors proved it with this 14 year old McDonald’s burger:

Whoever made this video did a pretty good job proving it:

This week, someone else proved it when they leaked a picture of a frozen McRib patty.

Here’s what a McRib looks like after you order it:

Here’s what it looks like before:
uLG1TTI

Sure, that looks disgusting. But guess what, we all still eat at McDonald’s. Well maybe not all of you but some of you, most of you, still love swinging through every once in a while, whether it’s for a quarter pounder, a sausage egg McMuffin, chicken nuggets, french fries, a fresh coke, or maybe it’s March and you’re craving a Shamrock Shake. Let’s all just accept that there’s probably a little piece of McDonald’s inside all of us just trying to find it’s way out.

Jim Gaffigan gets it.

We’re lovin’ it.
Hey, McDonald’s offers apple slices…and milk too!
