Kendrick Lamar dropped, GNX, his brand new full length Friday, November 22nd, and it took no time at all for America's largest fast food chain to capitalize on one of the most recognizable parts of the album.
Following the album's release, McDonald's shared a faux mock up of their Honey Mustard dipping with a nod to Lamar's "MUSTARD!" line in "tv off (ft lefty gunplay)", which is the seventh track on GNX.

The post eventually caught the attention of DJ Mustard, who is credited on the track, and he responded with:
Aye im trippin and I'm Lovin it 🤷🏽♂️

McDonalds wasn't the only brand to jump in on what looks to be one of the newest memes to take over the internet. Amazon Music, NFL, DreamWorks Animation, Shrek, and many more all made posts referencing the lyric.

The impact of Lamar's latest release doesn't stop there, pastor Damon Dorsey of Walk By Faith Ministries in Baltimore, MD managed to slide the "MUSTARD" lyric into his Sunday sermon.
