The Grimace shake has taken over all of our socials, but who is Grimace? Grimace was first introduced to the general public by Mcdonald’s in 1971. He joined their team of mascots, but not as the same Grimace we know and love today. Grimace was first introduced to the world as “Evil Grimace”, he was a villain on the prowl to steal people’s milk shakes. The original purple monster also featured four arms and he would use these extra limbs to help acquire all the stolen milkshakes.
What actually is Grimace though? In the last 10 years, we’ve seen some tweets from Mcdonald’s that describe the purple mascot as “the embodiment of a milkshake, though others still insist he’s a taste bud.” And “Grimace lore says he is the embodiment of a milkshake or a taste bud.” So is Grimace a milkshake or a tastebud? That may be up to you to decide for yourself.
The Grimace we see today isn’t evil though, so what happened there? When Roy T. Bergold Jr. was the vice president of advertising for the hamburger chain he decided to revamp Grimace and give him a new look that wouldn’t scare kids as much so the company took off two of the mascot’s four arms and left him as a slightly more friendly purple blob.
So how did the grimsce shake trend start on Tiktok? If you are unfamiliar with the grimace shake trend the videos follow this format: Be excited to try the new grimace shake, lay dead on the ground with purple milkshake oozing from your mouth.
