Mom's McDonald's dessert hack with fries divides TikTok
Two mothers have been hailed geniuses for their creative McDonald's dessert hack. Janelle and Kate frequently take to the platform with their divisive food recipes – but one, in particular, has caught the attention of almost 10 million people. The footage shows the pair in the car mashing six McDonald's ice cream cones in a plastic container while disclaiming that things can get messy. They proceed to top the ice cream with chocolate sauce and their own sprinkles for good measure, before using the dessert as a dip for their fries. "It's the sweet and salt mixture," one said, while another called their creation "perfect". The clip was soon inundated with thousands of comments from fellow TikTokers, with one writing: "At first I thought you were crazy but the further you went ... I thought that looks pretty good."

Meanwhile, others weren't so convinced... "You lost me at the French fries," one wrote. @janelleandkate Moms share McDonalds secret! ?? #mcdonalds #mcdonaldshacks #momsoftiktok Attention soon turned to the fact that the McDonald's ice cream machine was actually working, a long-standing joke between fans of the fast food chain. The ice cream machine became an international phenomenon that one McFlurry lover launched McBroken in 2020, a site dedicated to tracking all the broken machines in the US. In a 2021 statement by Taylor Commercial Foodservice LLC, the company that makes the machines for McDonald’s, they explained the issues with broken machines. The company said that, although it tries to send out repairs specialists as quickly as it can, the waiting times became longer due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The statement said: "A lot of what’s been broadcasted can be attributed to the lack of knowledge about the equipment and how they operate in the restaurants, "The machines are built up with a lot of interconnecting parts that have to operate in a complex environment and manner."

New angle shows what happened to Cardi B fan after being hit by rapper's microphone
A fan who incurred the wrath of Cardi B will think twice before getting overexcited at a concert, new footage suggests. The woman was watching the ‘Bodak Yellow’ rapper perform in Las Vegas when she splashed her drink up at the star onstage. Cardi (real name Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar Cephus) responded by furiously hurling her microphone at the culprit, to the shock of everyone there. A clip of the incident swiftly went viral on social media, with even the ‘WAP’ icon herself proudly sharing it. Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter However, a new video, showing what became of the offending fan, has left people voicing their sympathy for her. The recording shows the woman, still clutching her cup, instantly gushing: “I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry,” right up at the 30-year-old star in the aftermath of the outburst. Cardi looks down on her – literally and figuratively – as security guards jump down into the crowd and the woman is escorted away. @typicalelliott Mistery solved. This is the most detailed video of what happened to Cardi B that made her threw the microphone at a fan during a concert in las vegas #cardib #microphone #news #ice #drink #fyp #ny #dominicana #drais #rap And whilst most commentators agree that the woman shouldn’t have thrown her drink up in the first place, others think her reaction shows that the whole thing was her accident. “She looks genuinely apologetic,” one TikTok user wrote. “What’s messed up is… what if she really didn’t mean to? Like what if she wasn’t thinking and just waved her hand forgetting the cup [was] lidless?” asked another. Other users pointed to a recording from the concert, taken just moments before when Cardi got splashed (on her body) as she crossed the stage. “Mmm that s**t feel good,” she declared, before bending over and adding: “Put that s**t in my p***y.” @typicalelliott Replying to @luvnosylla I guess the whole thing with Cardi B, thr drink and the mic was a huge misunderstanding after all #cardib #microphone #vegas #news #rap #nyc Many viewed this as an invitation for further drink sprinkling, and said the microphone-hurl victim may have just been trying to comply. But others pointed out that Cardi addressed the issue after she was passed a new mic. “I said splash my p***y not my face, b***h,” she announced, to the cheers of her adoring supporters.
