Roy Wood Jr.'s Best Fast Food Takes | The Daily Show

The Choco Taco was trash, the McRib was an ally, and burrito bowls are scams, because if it ain’t wrapped up, it ain’t a burrito. Here’s a look back at some of Roy Wood Jr's hottest fast food takes over the years. #DailyShow #Comedy #TDSThrowback #RoyWoodJr

"You miss yo father and he's gone!!" 😂😂😂 Trevor couldn't hold that laugh in! 😂😂 And then Roy sold it with the sad face! 😂😂 Mike drop moment!!

[@constancereyes417]

It's the prolonged and incredulous stare before he told Trevor: "that's the most ignorant thing l've ever heard you say." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Man, l love Roy!

[@aylbdrmadison1051]

Trevor plays the foil so well too. They're like Abbot and Costello. But it's even funnier because Trevor is the smart one but not the wise guy. lols

[@ConceptualCalculus]

@@aylbdrmadison1051 They are both "the smart one." Trevor has a more intellectual image. Roy often plays the fool for laughs; he is a comedian, after all. But do not be fooled. Roy is very intelligent.

Roywood Jr for perm Daily Show Host!!! He earned it!

I don't understand how he keeps a straight face through these food monologues. I'm in tears from laughing. Props to the master of the straight and serious face- Roy Wood Jr.!!! Love this guy in everything he does. TALENT!

"That's not African, and that's not a real thing." I had spit coming out of my nostrils. You two are comedy geniuses. Don't ever stop.

Roy and his Fast Food Comedy--Pure Clean Comedy Gold!

[@kumoyuki]

More proof that Roy is the guy to take the Daily Show forward. He understands what really matters to people :)

[@b1oh1]

Idk. I've been watching RWJ for a long-time. He doesn't seem able to fluidly link the comedy with the seriousness of things. He's just a funny man, so to speak. IMHO, Trevor Noah was the best Daily Show host. Even better than JS. Desi would make a better choice IMHO.

[@MrFranconn]

@@b1oh1 you have been watching him for a long time. Why,? YHO says you don't think he's funny.

[@nardo218]

Agree, I've been enjoying seeing more of Roy Wood lately. He's def got important things to tell us and I wish to subscribe to his newsletter

[@andreamuraskin5364]

Roy Wood Jr is a legend. I miss this man.

[@benoitmessi2602]

Did the McRib say something about Jewish people? 😂😂😂😂 Kills me every time

[@skunkworksmusicgroup]

Roy's reaction to "throw a drumstic between two biscuits"😂😅 and Gabrielle Union had me in tears😂

[@mikek7050]

This is going to sound really weird, but that segment about the Chocotaco made me emotional. I lost my father this year, and a couple of weeks ago at a Baseball game I just starting crying. It was something we shared, and it just reminded me of what I didn't have anymore. So get that Chocotaco everyone. I miss my dad too.

[@cyborgraptor1778]

I get this. I lost my father not long ago ( no I didn't misplace him) and the weirdest things made me sad, like I stumbled across "Fool Us" and it made me teary eyed cause that's something my Dad would have liked. I hope you are doing better.

[@Avant402]

I see the Popeye’s chicken sandwich and McRib runs deep for Roy🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@michaeldougherty6036]

Roy's delivery is so absolutely perfect at all times. He is a genius at what he does.

Roy Woods Jr should be the host of The Daily Show already!

Roy makes me laugh. Whenever he is on, I watch. He should be the permanent host.

[@chuathianpoh3849]

…Roy Wood Jr’s “deadpan” face … even funnier than his jokes!

[@aylbdrmadison1051]

Or when he tilts his head forward and to one side, his eyebrows go halfway up his forehead and his eyes get all big.. That one sells it. You just can't argue with someone making that face. You can't.

[@chuathianpoh3849]

… like Trevor Noah… Roy Wood … Desi Lydic … and the rest of the “beautiful” comedians…they “make my day”!…happiness!

[@stevebrooks7197]

Roy Wood, Jr is a classic! Please keep it going, Roy!

[@goatbabe0666]

I agree with Roy on the shamrock shake. I worked at McDonald's for three years in high school. The problem with the shamrock shake is that the ice cream/shake machine dispenses soft serve and then a shot of the flavoring syrup is added while dispensing. The mint flavor contaminates everything - all the other shakes that are pulled are vanilla mint, chocolate mint and strawberry mint. 😂 The whole time we have the shamrock shake, you can get anything without mint in it. So if that's not your thing, it's not ideal.

[@notsure1969]

Chocolate mint actually works though.

[@jtobrien_]

I’m😮😮😅

[@shaunw.1173]

Easy solution. Have a dedicated serving machine _just_ for the Shamrock Shake. Problem Solved.

[@theoriginalbridgetconnors]

​@@shaunw.1173 Are you kidding? 80% of the time the ice cream machine is broken so you want two machines to be broken at the same time?
