Not so happy meals?


This story tell us ...

A proposed city ordinance would ban McDonald's from putting toys in Happy Meals unless it adds fruit and vegetable portions and limits calories. The proposal would apply to all restaurants, but the focus has been on McDonald's and its iconic Happy Meals.

Some people don't want anybody to have any fun.
Can you imagine ordering a "Chef Salad" happy meal with a side of sunflower seeds and a pure mountain spring water to drink?
I don't think the product is at fault -- just the people who choose to over indulge. Or choose to let their children over indulge.

Amen, to that! A Happy Meal should be a treat, not a staple in a kid's diet. Besides, they already offer alternative "healthy" choices for children...apple slices, milk, apple juice. The parents need to teach their children how to eat, not McDonald's.
