    They've always come with free cookies. Always. The one nearest my house gives you a free ice cream with a Happy Meal.

    Though eating fruit won't kill children. Jesus. >_>

    The only times My kids eat at mcdonalds, they get apples, and sometimes an occassional cheeseburger. Not really too fond of the happy meals.

    and the toys are always really cheesy nowadays, and poor quality. I remember when I was a young kid, the toys were actually worth something.

    THANK YOU, government, I was having trouble my own making food decisions.

    Now can you go to the grocery store and tell me what I am allowed to buy, please?

    I'm sad by all the fat kids I see. I don't mean a bit large or chunky or husky. I mean fat. Shame on America. I'm not sure regulating McDonald's Happy Meals is the answer, but nonetheless, Shame on America.

    Falcon = REAL food. Entity being addressed is America. This SO works:

    Indeed... and shame on those who buy into the agenda that has them believing that the government holds the answers to all the problems. All manner of health issue arises because in one way or another we've abandoned our place in sane decision making and now there are innumerable issues that the media can promote as crises so we turn to the criminals we "elect" to furnish solutions- willfully un-mindful of the fact that the problems will be exploited to serve the greedy interests of those criminals and will likely not address the core problem.

    They never did when I was a kid.

    Of course mcdonalds is full of shit about wholesome anything, but that's not the point, it's the parents responsibility. Not that this law alone is raping anyones freedoms into the ground or anything, but it's the idea that it's ok at all for this sort of law that bothers me. Why are the same people who are against the government deciding that gay people marrying is bad or that drugs are bad or anything like that so FOR the government deciding what kind of food and toys can be sold together? FUCK that. I'm siding with mcdonalds.

    If you get to the pants before they stop you, totally start trying them on him, in the middle of an isle or something.

    McDonalds all the way for once in my life. They are bs'ing up a storm about their happy meals being nutricious, but since when does the fucking government get to decide what we as consumers are allowed to eat/serve? R

    She said 'wholesome', not nutritious. Wholesome is a meaningless word when it comes to assessment of nutrition. It's one of those buzz words used in advertisements.

    There was a donut commercial where the mom said she was so proud of serving her family sugar-coated donuts for breakfast because they were 'wholesome'.

    I would probably die if i ate mcdonalds..
    When I was in BC, they had a training exercise,.. Take you out to the middle of nowhere, give you a hamburger as a last meal.. then youre to survive on your own for a week with no food, fresh water, and only the gear provided by the instructor. Well, I choose not to eat the hamburger, and I was not allowed to give it to another person either.
    Being that I quit eating mcdonlds and shit like this before i even enlisted. It was all to easy..

    The other participants didnt understand, that this food will actually make you weaker. You would be better off with an empty stomach, than attempt such maneuvers with something on your stomach thats going to burn up really fast, leaving your body searching for more of the same poison. kinda like how tobacco acts, addictive with no benefits at all, draining you more and more..
    As you can imagine I passed this exam with flying colors. Eating mostly nuts, oat grasses and water, mushrooms, salamanders, some fish I caught using my trousers as a net, trapping a baby raccoon eating it too/ :puke:yuck.. I also wanted to stay another 3days on the mountain..:afro:, i was just kidding .. :p
