McDonald’s customers claim Minions toys’ gibberish sounds like F-word

The firm said the promotion was supposed to run through to the end of July.

Over the July 4th holiday, the food chain released the toy based on the popular film series, “Despicable Me”.

“Minions” stars Sandra Bullock and Jon Hamm, and follows the evolution of the small, yellow creatures since the beginning of time and the numerous despicable masters they have served. Although there are a range of different Minions characters to collect, it is the caveman minion which is under scrutiny.

Dear parents: Unless you’d like to hear the f-bomb drop from your darling preschooler’s rosebud lips, you might like to skip McDonald’s latest Happy Meal offering. The toy reportedly says “para la bukay”, “hahaha” and “eh eh”.

Bradley Merten said he was anxious his granddaughter might start repeating the profinaity. In addition to, “What the f***?” his toy also seems to say “Well, I’ll be damned”.

But parents say that they won’t let their kids play with it. There are dozens of YouTube videos posted of parents demonstrating how they think the toys are swearing.

“You decide for yourself, but from what I hear its (sic) not good”. McDonald’s has no plans to take the toy out of distribution.

What that Minion had to say immediately got Alexis Hernandez’s attention and it wasn’t something she wanted her 5-year-old daughter to hear. One already has more than 1 million views. “We apologize for any confusion or offense to those who may have interpreted the sounds for anything other than gibberish”. “Minions speak ‘Minionese, ‘ which is a random combination of languages and nonsense words”, said a spokesman to a Fox affiliate.
