To go along with the release of Frank Ocean's new studio album Blonde, a limited edition Boys Don't Cry zine was also produced for fans.
Kanye West of all people made a special contribution to the zine, penning an ode to McDonald's french fries that included couplets like "I always knew them French fries was evil man / Smelling all good and shit."

Well now McDonald's has responded on Twitter with a few rhymes of their own, and a "100" emoji thrown in for good measure. The tweet calls attention to McDonald's "World Famous Fries," before addressing West's mention of "artificial meat" in his poem.
While clever, our money's on IKEA's response to Kanye West's collaboration request as the better of the two:
