Casting real New Yorkers with big personalities, strong opinions, and that unmistakable NYC energy to taste test the menu of a popular fast food restaurant and share their honest reactions on camera. This non-union commercial will film in Miami, but we are looking for that infectious NY energy which is why we are casting people out of NYC.

We want people who love food, speak their minds, and aren’t afraid to tell us exactly what they think.

No acting experience is necessary. We’re looking for authentic personalities, great energy, and people who enjoy trying new foods and giving their unfiltered opinions.
