What is Grimace Shake Trend?

In 1971, Grimace was first featured as a member of McDonald's retiring cast of characters, which also included cultural icons like Ronald McDonald and the Hamburglar. In recognition of the purple character's 52nd birthday since its introduction by the fast food chain, McDonald's added the Grimace Birthday dinner to their American menus on June 12.

McDonald's recently released a birthday special meal dedicated to the furry mascot Grimace and the internet can’t get over it. The purple milkshake appears to be popular among Gen Z TikTokers and influencers more than it is among kids. People are now inexplicably pretending to be dead after drinking the purple drink a result, which has started a new trend. #UnavailableChallenge Videos on Twitter: Netizens Share Dance Clips On Davido's 'Unavailable' Song That Are Too Good To Miss!.
