The McItaly

Italy’s agricultural minister has endorsed — and faces criticism for endorsing — a McItaly burger made with Italian beef, Asiago cheese and artichoke spread.

On the McItaly’s promotional material is a seal saying “Under the patronage of” the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry — a highly coveted government endorsement that is more often seen on museum exhibits and cultural initiatives than fast-food containers.
