Magox Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 (edited) Big thumbs up for McDonalds stepping up to the plate in regards to at least being a little more conscience when it comes to healthier eating. Eat your heart out Glenn Beck/Sean Hannity!! Edited July 27, 2011 by Magox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Big thumbs up for McDonalds stepping up to the plate in regards to at least being a little more conscience when it comes to healthier eating. Eat your heart out Glenn Beck/Sean Hannity!! Very noble. Now lets guess on how popular the apples are. If people want to eat apples they don't go to McDonalds. But you know, way to go Michelle. A hero to us all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booster4324 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I knew exactly what I could be facing here. hehe The stuff that kids eat and the alarming statistics on diabetes/obesity are tied together. Is this a meal you should be feeding your kid? No. Is it better than it was? Hell yeah. Funny bit to me, this could easily be a slam on Obama.

/dev/null Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Oooh Apple slices with my artery clogging Double Quarter pounder and diabetic fountain drink. You know what will make McD's sound even more healthy? A foreign menu. They could add Le Royal to the menu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booster4324 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 The consumer could choose to not eat at McDonalds Which would be the wise choice. Still, if one does... I should note I despise everything about McDonalds except for their fries and their breakfast. A guilty pleasure say once a month on the breakfast part.

DC Tom Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 It gives the consumer more choices though. Up to them whether they choose wisely, which is as it should be. So did diet sodas. Didn't stop people from driving up to the drive-through and ordering a "bacon double rat-burger meal, giganto-size it...with a Diet Coke, because I'm trying to lose weight." McD's can serve whatever they feel like serving, for all I care...but anyone who's going to McDonald's and thinking "Gee, I wish I could get carrot sticks with this crap" has much bigger issues.

SageAgainstTheMachine Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I'm arguing it's a meaningless thing. You're leaning on something known as the Nirvana Fallacy, which essentially assumes that any small movement in the right direction is useless because it doesn't completely solve the problem. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nirvana_fallacy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
