French McDonald’s Considers Removing Curry Sauce

In a playful nod to Stephen Curry’s recent Olympic performance, French McDonald’s considers removing curry sauce from their menu. Following the U.S. basketball team’s gold medal victory, the fast-food chain joked on social media about rethinking their classic curry sauce. The Instagram post, translated from French, read, “For obvious reasons, we are considering removing this sauce.” The message was accompanied by a caption stating, “For 4 years minimum,” reflecting the impact of Curry’s performance on the French fans.

Curry’s Performance and Impact

Stephen Curry’s impressive display in the final of the Olympics was a key factor in the United States clinching the gold medal. Curry delivered a standout performance with 24 points, including four crucial three-pointers in the final minutes of the game. His decisive shot with just 33 seconds left on the clock pushed the U.S. ahead by nine points, effectively sealing the victory and leaving French supporters disheartened. This Olympic clash was the second consecutive summer games where the U.S. and France faced off in the gold medal match.

Reactions and Reflections

Team USA and Warriors head coach Steve Kerr praised Curry and the team for their resilience and unselfish play throughout the tournament. Kerr noted, “It’s a global game with a lot of great players, but we still feel we have the greatest players.” He emphasized the unique pressure on the U.S. team, where even a silver medal would be met with disappointment from their fans. Curry himself reflected on his performance, stating that during the game, he was solely focused on the rim, blocking out distractions. His remarkable shot with 33 seconds remaining was a testament to his focus and skill, impressing even himself.
