Mcdonals Happy Meal bad??? read this bullshit

14 years ago

Now many people know I like retro things, I was a child of the 80's and such I been around arcads and play nes with 8 bit and thought it was bad ass.



I also grow up with Mcdonals. Sometimes I got happy meals and sometimes I dont..and the one thing i turely enjoy about them are there toys. They had the best toy(sometimes) I still have a few of them and would love to get all the Mc'nugget helloween costume toys.



Now I know your wondering Gee why was I talking about all of this...

This piss me to high heaven. Someone had the balls to Lawsuit Happy Meals. What the F@ck!!



If you want your kids to eat right...don't take them to a fast food joint...and you want to know what? You go to mcdonals and you ask your kids what you want there...guess what...kids don't like to think too much about things...there a huge menu and you want them to look it over. They happy meal is the best then for them and they get a toy so when your still in the car or still at mcdonals they have stuff to do..



I know this mom will fail and i wouldn't make it a big deal...till know cuz in the news I read this.







Jack in the Box, the nation's fifth-largest hamburger chain, is dropping toys to promote its meals aimed at kids and working on adding healthier menu options to its offerings for children. 



A spokesman for the fast-food chain told Nation's Restaurant News: "Parents were generally not choosing Jack in the Box as a dining destination because of a toy."



Instead, the restaurant has focused its efforts on offering more nutritional options like a grilled cheese sandwich on sourdough, grilled or crispy chicken strips or a hamburger, Jack in the Box spokesman Brian Luscomb said.

Despite activist groups voicing opposition to restaurants using toys to market meals that contribute to child obesity, Jack in the Box said they did not make the decision based on outside pressure.



Regardless, nutrition activists are considering Jack in the Box's move a victory.



"We definitely see this as a sign that the public climate is shifting," said Sara Deon, Value the Meal campaign director for Corporate Accountability International. "We definitely think that Jack in the Box, in taking this step, really illustrates the direction in which the rest of the industry needs to go, in order to satisfy what the public wants."



She said by taking this step, Jack in the Box has differentiated itself from industry leader McDonald's and "their blatantly predatory marketing techniques." 



McDonald's did not respond to requests for an interview. 



Jack in the Box has about 2,200 restaurants across the United States.

The whole point is the lady is useing her kid and this as one big excuse to squeeze some money out of Mcdonals. Eather a judge will be dumb as hell, take the case like the hot coffee one years ago and this bitch will walk away with millions of dollars or MDs will hand her some cash to drop the case, eather way the odds are high that this bitch is going to walk away rich and thats all she cares about. I mean really, if the kids want the toy they can buy it for a buck without the food but if they want the food they can get the healthy stuff rather than the buger fries and soda, its the parents that are to blame for this but that would not only take commons sens but would also have them take the balme for something.

Never said they would or should, I'm saying the people ranting and raveing about this BS need to have the shit slapped out of them. Furthermore, I'm sick of them allways going after Mcdonals, I have yet to see any of this happen to any other fast food place that has toys in ther happy meals. it all comes down to money, thats all there is to it. This women is only useing all this as a ploy to get cash out of Mcdonals and in my eyes needs to have her head beat in.

All I see here is another pathetic exercise in the destruction of choice on the behalf of both the parent and the child. In the end, it's just the whole "OMG yur kid's obese JESUS CHRIST we gotta kill the obesity-causers" panic again.

Geez, what's next? Are they gonna shove f*cking pneumatic tubes and force feed them veggies?

Tigermaster03 ~tigermaster03

I know right? Like I said before if you want to feed your kids right...dont take them to a fast food joint..
