McD – Most Famous Burger

October 2012

For the first time in Dutch history, fans could influence McDonald’s greatest icon: the burger. People could create their own burger online from more than 70 different ingredients. They could then get votes by sharing their creation on social media. An expert jury – including TV celebrity Martijn Krabbé – selected 3 finalists from the 10 burgers with the most votes.

The final winner, James Zeelenberg and his McMood, enjoyed his “Holland’s Best-known Burgher” status for one whole week. His burger was on the McDonald’s menu, he was the star in his own TV commercial and point-of-purchase (POP) material and was richly rewarded with a 7-day VIP treatment.
