Just For The Hell Of It Mondays: Hong Kong, Batman, McDonalds..... YEAH!


Now it's not really popular to say or admit this nowadays and I'm not entirely sure that it was ever popular, but today I want to tell you that I love junk food.  Call it what you will, junk food, garbage food, fast food whatever, I love it.  It's like a hobby of mine, where I find some of the worst food imaginable and I need to stuff in down my gullet because it just tastes so good.  It's Jim's hobby too, so don't just hate on me all you health nuts.  Jim and I are so passionate about this subject that when we were first deciding to do this site, it was almost named Whopper Wednesday because of the obvious Burger King reference and because new comics come out on Wednesday.  Yeah I agree Weird Science is better.



Anyway for today we'll be looking at a commercial for McDonalds from Hong Kong featuring Batman inspired food from the fast food chain that really gets me jealous because, where the hell is my Batman inspired food?  Now I don't speak the language and honestly I'm not to proficient in English either, but what I get from this is that McDonalds in Hong Kong also offers an entire Justice League themed menu and now I'm really jealous.  I want to sink my teeth into a Superman inspired double quarter pounder with cheese and wash it down with another.  Really I just miss DC movie tie-ins to fast food chains.  I loved being a kid and getting all the toys in the happy meals and I even still have my Riddler mug from the Batman Forever promotion.  So check out this commercial and check out the odd McDonalds entrees of Hong Kong and pray that we get some sort of Justice League promotion coming to America.  I bet you won't though, everybody's so health conscious now and look down on my gluttonous ways.  Do it more me then........... I NEED THIS!

  1. This post is a whole mood. Junk food with a side of nostalgia? I'm all in. And speaking of guilty pleasures, if we're talking about flavor bombs, can we just take a second to appreciate Zaxbys Sauce? It’s like the superhero of dipping sauces—sweet, tangy, a little smoky, and absolutely essential for dunking those Chicken Fingers like Batman into Gotham’s crime rate. If we ever do get a Justice League fast food collab in the U.S., I’m petitioning for Zax Sauce to be the official condiment of the Bat-Signal burger.

  2. This post totally hits home! Junk food as a hobby? Absolutely relatable Jack in the Box is my personal rabbit hole of cravings. If you're curious how their wild menu compares to these Batman-inspired bites, compare this fast food menu https://tinyurl.com/JIBmenu. Ever wish Jack in the Box did superhero-themed meals too? I'd line up in a cape.

  3. This one’s got major flavor vibes! Turning junk food into a full-time hobby? Totally relatable — Jack in the Box is basically my go-to for wild cravings. Their menu is like a flavor playground, packed with bold, unexpected combos. Wanna see how it stacks up against some Batman-style bites? Check out their lineup here
    . And seriously — if Jack dropped superhero-themed meals? I’d be first in line… probably in a cape, fries in hand.

  4. This post is a whole mood. Comfort food with a side of nostalgia? Count me in. And speaking of guilty pleasures, if we’re talking flavor heroes, can we take a second to appreciate Firehouse Subs’ signature sauces? Sweet, smoky, tangy, and bold—they’re the secret weapons that make every sub and side unforgettable. Dunking a hot sub or cheesy side into these sauces is like unlocking a whole new level of flavor.

  5. Craving something sweet with serious flavor vibes? Crumbl Cookies turns dessert into an experience with their rotating weekly menu of bold, indulgent cookie creations. From warm, gooey chocolate chip classics to wild picks like churro cake, s’mores stuffed, and dirt cake cookies topped with gummy worms, every bite feels like a new flavor adventure. It’s basically a sugar-fueled playground for your taste buds — and let’s be honest, if Crumbl ever dropped a superhero-themed cookie box, we’d all be lining up in capes, frosting on our faces.

  11. This post perfectly captures the nostalgia and fun of themed fast food tie-ins, from Batman Happy Meals to Justice League promotions. It’s a reminder of how much joy a creative menu can bring—something fans of Culver's can relate to, with its playful seasonal specials, ButterBurgers, and creamy frozen custard that make every meal feel like a treat.
