What started as a fun Happy Meal promo spiraled out of control. 🍔⚡ Limited-edition Pokémon cards hidden inside Happy Meals in Japan sparked a frenzy — fans were buying up dozens at a time, ripping out the cards, and tossing the food. Mountains of untouched burgers and fries piled up while eBay filled with listings from scalpers hoping to cash in. 💳📈 The result? Widespread food waste, angry customers, and an early end to the promotion. McDonald’s had to pull the plug before it could catch ’em all. From Happy Meals to unhappy endings… this one left a bad taste.
