A Rhetorical Analysis Of Mcdonalds

707 Words2 Pages

When people think of both tasty and quick food, they often think of fast food. McDonalds fries are some of the most iconic in the food industry, as they have been around for 70 plus years. This ad aims to resemble the iconic McDonalds fries but it puts its own spin on it by having different vegetables in its place instead. It offers carrots, peppers, as well as other vegetables as healthy alternatives to the beloved fries. Dallas Farmers Market is showing us that there are healthy and cheap alternatives to fast food fries. While this picture does not say many words, it does allow us to get an understanding of it through the ways it has used both ethos and pathos. It demonstrates ethos by having the Dallas Farmers Market logo in the bottom.

    One of my favorite commercials to watch is the Chick-Fil-A commercials. Their commercials are very ironic but at the same time interesting and entertaining. The main purpose of their commercial is to persuade an audience to go and buy their product or maybe convince an audience to come back again and buy more of their product. They are able to influence their audience through the use of rhetorical elements. Rhetorical elements include: the rhetor, discourse, audience, and rhetorical triangle. Their commercials don’t necessarily target one particular audience, they incorporate different ideas into their commercial to target different audiences such as families, and football fans.

  • Mcdonaldization Of Society: The Interactionist View Of Mcdonaldization

    419 Words  | 1 Pages

    McDonaldization is the process in which the principles of popular fast food companies such as McDonald’s are appearing throughout the world in many aspects of our modern society. As McDonaldization sweeps across the globe, The authors of McDonaldization Revisited argue that “‘Americanisation’ is so often a synonym for cultural decline” (Alfino, Caputo, & Wynyard , 1998, p. 8). George Ritzer claims that this is due to the rationalization of society as McDonaldization is meant to signify the optimal fusion of efficiency, calculability, predictability, and control (Ritzer, 2011). The intricacies of the human touch are utterly eliminated from this process, and what is left is an uninviting, cold, and unforgiving concept. When the novelty of something so foreign and American wears off, adaptation is needed to sustain one’s position in other countries. One research design type that researchers might utilize to view McDonaldization would be observation of the adaptation and cultural assimilation across different parts the world. This can be measured with ethnographies, the systematic study of the customs of people and cultures.

  • Rhetorical Analysis Of Fast Food Nation

    1254 Words  | 3 Pages

    Many people do not realize that the jobs in the fast food industry are very dangerous. These are the jobs that no one realizes what it’s like behind the scenes. The workers face high rates of injury in the factories and in fast food restaurants, so we feel like we shouldn’t support the fast food industries. In chapters three and eight of “Fast Food Nation,” Eric Schlosser uses pathos to highlight the fact that fast food jobs are difficult as well as dangerous. The jobs involved with fast food are so dangerous that more regulations should be reinforced more firmly, as well as more laws should be put into place.

Examples of this in the billboard advertisement are the sponsors at the bottom: Baron Real Estate, the American Heart Association, the American Cancer Society, and the American Lung Association. In the Doritos commercial advertisement, logos is seen with the brand title.

    The McDonaldization of Society The McDonaldization of society may sound somewhat misleading but the term actually refers to the rationalization of society. The use of the word "McDonaldization" just simply indicates that the fast food restaurant is one of many great examples of rationality.

The five characteristics can be noticed in various aspects of society which exemplifies the extent that rationality affects our society and societies worldwide.
