*bleep* you McDonald's. It's bad enough you had to get in a shitload of trouble to understand that people want healthier fast food, and even then you only went that way for cash really, but then to say "Hey we aren't at fault, look at video games. They are the evil evil reason behind fat kids" is just sad. I knew McDonald's could be silly at times but this is just beyond stupid. This video game scapegoat move is just getting old, especially when it's mostly the consumer's fault for being an idiot.

I'm starting to wonder if there needs to be a series of "The Biggest Loser" gyms with trainers all over the world. That show seems to help people unlike so many other things. Don't really watch it though.

Cmon, how much credibility does this shit have?

McD's underpays and overworks their employees to death, they try to pass their make-believe salads as healthy food, and give you nutritional facts as to not freak you out...which..you can't blame people...cuz everything they cook is filled with excessive amounts of grease.

Who in their right mind would believe this crap is beyond me.

this is sick. i will not eat at mcdonalds from here onwards as a mark of protest.

I almost fell off my seat reading that!

I almost fell off my seat laughing after reading that!!BTW sorry about the Double Post.

starjet905, Super Size Me is a documentary of sorts. A guy does nothing but eat McDonald's for a month. It shows just how bad regular fat food is and also investigates some points of view from different people. He also keeps a tally of just how many times he was asked to up size his meal, hence the name really.

It's awesome BTW, yet also disgusting. On the DVD, there was an experiment to see how long Mcfries, some Mcburgers, and some regular fries and burgers would last. The Mcfries lasted for weeks in a non-airtight container and still tasted fresh.

But still, McDonalds is a big business, so money is more important to them than everybody getting fat and unhealthy. It's also people's fault though for eating it.

Everything in moderation.

WOW!!! Will ignorance never cease......I will say one thing about McDonald's though......as much as the current policy seems to be snatching everyone's money, Joan Kroc donated to children's and local charities, as well as national charities very, very frequently and created many great programs for kids, and many other insanely huge donations in her will. She became a legend in the San Diego area. I don't think anyone at the McDonald's corp has the same tenacity for goodwill that she had.

What I find funny and ironic, which probably no one else noticed, is that not only do they humbly agree with various game companies to sell their toys with McD's Happy Meals, but also humbly agreed on the deal with Nintendo for using their restaurants as free hotspots for online play with the Nintendo DS.

So essentially, when they're pointing the finger at video games, they're pointing the fingers at themselves as well. Smooth move.

That's ridiculous. Trust McDonalds to try and weasel out of the pain they're causing.

i could never talk shit about the guys that came up with the big mac.

This is the most hilarious, hypocritical and contradictory statement I have EVER heard.

In the past, didn't Mc'Donalds even give kids free toys with their happy meals so basically all they're doing is indirectly blaming themselves
