Winter is the perfect season to indulge in copious amounts of comfort food and
McDonald's in France launched an American Winter menu that features rich, heavy ingredients like cheese, bacon and mushrooms. In a series of three ads, a man in an extreme situation
goes to his happy place for comfort: he envisions eating an item off the McDonald's American Winter menu. In "The Bear," the man is changing a flat tire and forced inside his car to avoid a bear. When
the bear breaks a window and rocks the car, this man thinks of good times -- eating McDonald's by the fire.
See it here. In part two, we see
the man out of his car and attempting to cross a river by walking across a fallen tree. He falls on that tree hard, but thinking of McDonald's soothes his pain.
Watch it here. The final ad shows our not safe for outdoorsman making a spear out of a tree limb. When he tries to stab a fish, he stabs himself
in the foot.

TBWA\Paris created the campaign, directed by
