In the age of viral moments, no one is immune to the internet's sharp sense of humor—not even the Ashton Hall's, who are just trying to share their daily routines. This week, social media users were in stitches as fast-food giant McDonald's jumped in on the fun, playfully mocking a viral morning routine video by fitness influencer Ashton Hall. Known for his unique routine involving bananas, Saratoga water, and ice bowls, Hall quickly became the internet’s new favorite meme target.

McDonald’s (@McDonalds) took it to the next level when they tweeted a picture of an ice water bowl with their Sprite logo on it, captioned simply

"Morning routine."

@leggah7 responded with the now-iconic

"Sprite Zero por favor," sparking a wave of hilarious commentary and memes.

The internet had officially lost it.

McDonald's joins the fun as the internet hilariously roasts Ashton Hall's viral morning routine

It didn’t take long for Twitter to run with McDonald’s clever jab, and soon fans were roasting Ashton Hall alongside the fast-food chain. Many couldn’t help but point out just how surreal it was to see McDonald’s poke fun at an internet trend.

One tweet by @destinytrack perfectly captured the collective amusement:

“You truly can’t miss a day on this app.”

It reflected the sentiment of many users who felt the bizarre meme train had taken yet another wild twist. @TomTheGamerBro humorously noted the irony, tweeting,

"But you don't open until 5 am by my house," in reference to McDonald's own routine not being quite as early as Hall’s.

Others continued piling on, with one tweet by @LilRadio7 reading,

“Even McDonald’s in on the joke,"

and @BigFootMau5 adding,

"Everyone is clowning this dude lmfao even MCDs hahahaha that’s sad 😂."

Fans were having the time of their lives, as @StephieSmallls simply chimed in with

"Dr pepper," a nod to Hall's morning beverage choices.

Another meme enthusiast, @enreach_ai hilariously asked the important question:

“Where is the banana?”

The origins of Ashton Hall's routine

For those unfamiliar with the viral sensation, Ashton Hall is a fitness influencer whose morning routine includes an almost ritualistic sequence: starting with a banana, a cold bowl of Saratoga water, and ending with a bowl of ice water. It's the kind of routine that both fascinates and confuses in equal measure, sparking a range of emotions from awe to amusement.

Hall’s video was quickly dissected by social media, as users mocked the over-the-top elements and labeled it out of touch with reality. Critics found humor in his devotion to such a specific routine, with some saying it resembled a parody of influencer culture itself. His explanation, though meant to promote self-discipline, only added to the absurdity as fans zeroed in on details like the ice water bowl, creating countless memes and comedic commentary.

The internet's reaction wasn’t just limited to everyday Twitter users—major brands like McDonald's, seeing an opportunity for some light-hearted trolling, jumped into the fray. Their tweet, which placed their logo on the infamous ice water bowl, cemented Hall’s routine as one of the year's top meme moments.

McDonald's troll game: Master level

For a global fast-food chain like McDonald's, jumping on internet trends isn’t unusual, but their execution this time was flawless. By referencing Ashton Hall's routine with their iconic Sprite logo, they struck a chord with the meme-loving audience, instantly going viral themselves.

This isn’t the first time McDonald's has leaned into pop culture, but their playful jab at Hall has to be one of the funniest yet. Fans eagerly await what the internet—and perhaps Hall himself—will come up with next. Will Ashton embrace the memes, or will his bananas and ice water remain untouched in future videos? Either way, social media isn’t letting this routine fade away anytime soon.
