McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski is back in the spotlight after his awkward burger review<\/a> was seen by millions \u2014 and his latest attempt to address it sparked fresh backlash.<\/p>\n

The business executive went viral in February after posting his video review<\/u><\/a> of the Big Arch, a hefty burger packed with two quarter-pound patties, three slices of cheese and crispy onions \u2014 along with the usual pickles, slivered onions and lettuce.<\/p>\n

Kempczinski called the burger a “delicious product,” all while wearing a sweater vest and sitting in a corporate setting.<\/p>\n

“Holy cow! God, that is a big burger,” Kempczinski said in the video, which was seen by millions of Instagram users.<\/p>\n

Despite his excitement, Kempczinski only took a very small bite of the burger and declared, “That is so good.”<\/p>\n

Though he seemed uncomfortable eating it, the executive described the offering as “distinctively McDonald’s.”<\/a><\/p>\n

“Only McDonald’s could do this type of burger, but it also is unlike anything else on our menu. It’s a delicious product,” Kempczinski said.<\/p>\n

The fast-food chief endured thousands of comments scrutinizing him over the video and later addressed the reaction in an interview published by The Wall Street Journal<\/a> (WSJ) on April 6.<\/p>\n

Kempczinski told the outlet that he learned the video had gone viral<\/a> when one of his children told him about it.<\/p>\n

“I got a call from one of my kids, and they said, ‘Dad, you’ve gone viral and not in a good way,'” the CEO said.<\/p>\n

When WSJ business columnist Tim Higgins asked him about eating on camera, Kempczinski laughed and said it’s best to “just dive right in.”<\/p>\n

He added, “I’m looking forward to taking a nice bite out of this chicken nugget,” before eating the company’s signature McNugget<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“It’s a little weird to watch each other eat,” Higgins responded.<\/p>\n

“Imagine how I felt,” Kempczinski joked.<\/p>\n

In the comments section of the WSJ Instagram post, users didn’t hold back.<\/p>\n

“The nugget bite was worse than the burger one,” one person said.<\/p>\n

“Even the nugget bite was ragebait,” a second user observed.<\/p>\n

Another person joked, “Can we never see him again pls?”<\/p>\n

Many other users questioned why he was being interviewed again.<\/p>\n

“He still looks like he does not want to eat his own ‘products,'” an unimpressed user wrote.<\/p>\n

“Why do they continue to put him on [the] air,” another said.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital reached out to McDonald’s for comment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
