title: TIL in 2003 rapper Pusha T wrote the McDonald’s Jingle “I’m lovin’ it” but doesn’t own publishing rights for it. Learning from this mistake, he owns 40% from the next jingle he wrote: Arby's “we have the meats”.

| TooMuchPretzels (4546 upvotes): I can see the Arbys Executive now. “Mr. Pusher, sir? You know how you came up with the ‘ba ba ba BA ba’ for McDonalds? Could you do the same thing for us?” \n\nPusha T: WE HAVE THE MEAT (BASS noises)
| | MrZero3229 (1518 upvotes): Exec: Damn, that slaps. Get me a beef and cheddar now!
| | | TWK128 (217 upvotes): I WILL CONQUER MEAT MOUNTAIN
| | | | selfdestructo591 (62 upvotes): A restaurant near me had a meat mountain. It’s doesn’t disappoint. And oddly enough, it cost about the same as a full meal at either Arby’s or McDonald’s. I do tip though, but I get a hell of a lot more meat than either of those two joints, lol, and service and a side. Fast food just isn’t worth it anymore.
| | | | | RollenderRudi (23 upvotes): Had the same thought regarding the price of fast food. Here in Germany two large burgers with fries/coke and ice cream run you about 30$ since covid. For the same price (maybe a little bit more) I can go to a real restaurant where I get service and can drink wine/beer while looking at some traditional Bavarian small-town center.
| | | | | | buttsharkman (2 upvotes): According to. https://mcdonaldsprices.com/mcdonalds-prices/\n\nDouble Quarter Cheese Deluxe Meal would be 12 dollars and is one of the more expensive items. I'm near Washington DC so you could probably go to a cheaper sit down place and get a basic burger and fries for that much but not a drink. Gonglwer would require a real hole in the wall place or a diner with about the same quality as McDonald's
| | | | | TWK128 (1 upvotes): Can you send me the name of the restaurant? DM if you'd prefer.\n\nI've actually already conquered Arby's and I'd like to know where the next challenge is.
