00:00 Now, I don't know many who aren't partial to a McDonald's now and again, and with at
00:05 least one on every high street and in each town, could there be a spin-off to the classic
00:10 Maccy restaurants that we're familiar with? Well, McDonald's is set to launch a mysterious
00:14 new spin-off named Cosmix, with the first restaurant set to open in Bolingbrook, Illinois.
00:20 And whilst the rumour mill continues to spin, it's thought that the outlet will sell items
00:24 from teas to lemonades to sandwiches and baked goods, and may even be a competitor for the
00:30 likes of Starbucks. It's thought Illinois has been chosen a setting location due to
00:34 its proximity to McDonald's global headquarters in Chicago. Named after one of McDonald's
00:40 vintage mascots, Cosmix is an alien character who was featured in a series of McDonald's
00:45 commercials in the 80s and 90s. McDonald's CEO has described Cosmix as a "small format
00:50 concept with all the DNA of McDonald's but with its own unique personality."
