Which McDonaldland character was known as the town's police officer?

Officer Big Mac was the police officer character in McDonald's fictional world of McDonaldland.

The character was part of the larger McDonaldland cast used in McDonald's advertising from the early 1970s onward. His name combined a law-enforcement title with the name of the Big Mac, one of the company's signature products.

Officer Big Mac is easy to confuse with Mayor McCheese, another official in the same advertising setting. Mayor McCheese was the town's mayor, while Officer Big Mac was associated with policing and public order.

McDonaldland characters gave McDonald's products distinct personalities and placed them in a shared fantasy setting. This approach helped the company build a consistent family-oriented advertising universe rather than relying only on standalone product commercials.
