McDonald's to remove 'tasteless' McCrispy advert next to crematorium

McDonald's are set to remove a 'tasteless' McCrispy advert which is right next to a crematorium. The poster placement has split opinion with some finding it funny whilst others dubbing it 'inappropriate', reports Cornwall Live.

The sign, advertising the fast food chain's new burger, has been placed on a bus stop directly opposite Penmount Crematorium in Cornwall. Although the advertising hoarding has caused hilarity among motorists who spot it on the busy A39, others fear it may upset grieving families.

One woman, whose mother-in-law was cremated at the establishment last year, said: "Although I can see the funny side, it is tasteless and I'm sure some grieving family members won't like to see it when visiting Penmount for the funeral and cremation of a loved one."
