McDonald's has fans all across the world, in fact in almost every nook and cranny of the world. Their signature happy meals have been a consistent hit ever since they were introduced. And it is not only the kids who love their happy meal from McDonald's, all of us enjoy the combo delight. And, by all of us, we actually mean, everyone - including billionaire business tycoon Elon Musk. The SpaceX and Tesla CEO expressed his desire to have a happy meal, that too on TV, but only if his one demand is met by McDonald's. Wondering what it is? Let's find out.
Elon Musk took everyone by surprise when he posted a tweet saying, "I will eat a happy meal on TV if McDonald's accepts Dogecoin." For the unversed, Dogecoin is a cryptocurrency based on the famous "doge" meme. This post was Elon Musk's own way of supporting the currency, plus, expressing his love for McDonald's.
Take a look at the Twitter post:

I will eat a happy meal on tv if @McDonalds accepts Dogecoin— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) January 25, 2022
The tweet has received almost 4k likes so far and 7k plus comments have already poured in. Of course, one of the first ones to reply was McDonald's with an equally amusing post. On Elon Musk's demand of accepting Dogecoin for their food, Mc Donald's replied, "Only if Tesla accepts grimacecoin".

Now Grimacecoin is a fake currency, which is based on a purple taste bud - an animated character featured in Mc Donald's advertisements.
This interesting Twitter banter rolled in more reactions from people all over the world, and another burger giant - Burger King - joined in the fun with its own humorous Twitter post. Referring to Elon Musk, the post said, "Only a king knows what da coin do".
