Gird thy tum — ralter tried Saweetie's McDonald's meal

And did … not look like this glam whilst doing it. Photo: McDonald’s In the new Dev Patel film The Green Knight, his character, Gawain, is given many ominous and foreboding warnings during his chivalric quest to face the titular creature. Ghosts and forest spirits warn him of his doom and beseech him to turn around. They tell him the enemy is someone he knows. But despite all evidence that moving forward is a death wish, he goes to meet his fate.

For those who don’t know much about Saweetie outside of tracks like “Best Friend” with Doja Cat, she has a tendency to do some wild shit with food, like if the Ratatouille strawberry-and-cheese pairing scene got infected by a computer virus. To Saweetie’s credit, she appears to make and enjoy actually good, sane food, too; her mom is Filipino Chinese, and she’s spoken at length about her love of dishes like chicken adobo and lumpia. She’s been known to take ginger shots for probiotic health.

Having tasted it and, worse, smelled it, I take it all back. The splurt of store-bought Ken’s ranch had me skeptical from the get-go, and then I got a hot whiff off the plate, which smelled acrid and artificial. All blended together, the result was more Russian dressing gone bad than vodka sauce. This one sparked an actual gag reflex.

We love a mignonette. Photo: Rebecca Alter Sunday: Flamin’ Hot noods In September, Saweetie tweeted a cooking video that deserves a permanent installation in the National Museum of American History next to Julia Child’s kitchen. Titled “The only way to make ramen,” it begins with Saweetie, in full glam, seasoning a Cup Noodle with Tabasco sauce and something called “Tony Chachere’s No Salt Seasoning Blend” . Then she strains the noodles dry.

One immediate improvement over some past McDonald’s artist collabs was the visual branding, which was strong and consistent across the packaging. There’s the big, attractive Saweetie Meal logos and diamonds on the bag, her own name-brand sauce, and even fries with a note on the box instructing you to “Share with your best friend. Or don’t.” I’d share with my roommates, but not before I did some concocting of my own.

Accompanying the dish was a poutine of sorts, which I made by picking the cheese off the Big Mac and dotting it on the pile of fries. Burger bits and a barbecue sauce “gravy” rounded it out. This dish emphasized how inconsequential the actual beef patties are to McDonald’s, despite its whole thing being burgers. I pushed the strips of thin, gray, processed meat to the side of the plate to better enjoy the fry/cheese/barbecue combo, which was great.
