    You have got to be kidding me.....this is about as crazy as it gets. The problem is, they will enter a suit and will most likely win. I am a small business owner and I am sick of all the crazy suits being thrown about in America because it grossly effects our cost of providing services, ect...

    So now Obama is killing / going after big business again.

    How may ways can the democratic party kill the US economy?
    Yeah, stupid lawsuit. Since you have a concern for fat kids, were you as up in arms with the No Child Left Behind Policy?

    i watched the news coverage of that story on pbs

    the actual threat of a suit was about the toys being inside the happy meals that lure kids to mc d's

    the other issue was the calorie and sodium amounts of the fast foods in those happy meals and other fast food selllers


    why do obama haters like to distort?


    would they rather have a society full of fat ass toddlers, and preschoolers who grow out to be adults with chronic heart diseases, diabetes,and other ailments?

    those things also put a drain on the healthcare system for everyone


    please think and let the hatred go!

    This opens another can of worms.....Healthcare. As for the children and food, the answer is simple, have a child...be a parent. Teach your children NOT to eat everything they want when they want it just as a parent should teach their children many-many other things. This is not any govt.'s fault or problem, it is what I cal " psudo-parenting " or simply giving birth and letting society raise the children.

    Secondly, you will not have to worry about healthcare if the govt. gets it's way, we are all going to be screwed and many of us will just die, end of story. That you will claerly be able to blame the "great one " in the white house for.

    Don't mean to upset anyone, these are not opinions, just facts.

    I just knew simply by who posted the thread that there would be a tie in to the Obama administration.

    Do you stay up late concocting the news?

    Hmm...new hit movie out called Airbenders.

    100% true. We either need to decide on making a centrally planned society, or let people make decisions for themselves. This is what Ralph Nader has and is constanantly trying to do. Consumers need to learn how to protect themselves. No McD hot coffee folks. Question: Can the government completely safeguard society? Maybe we should pass a law mandating proper eating, exercise and healthy living.


    Now, if we create a centrally managed society. Who will make the decisions?

    Isn't most of the food served at McDonalds processed?, And the salads are not even fresh.... I cant stand the food at that place, Free toys or not, I wont take my kids there anymore. If they want a burger and Fries, we usually go to In-N-Out Burger.


    And I have to agree with Enterpryzman on this point;

    "As for the children and food, the answer is simple, have a child...be a parent. Teach your children NOT to eat everything they want when they want it just as a parent should teach their children many-many other things. This is not any govt.'s fault or problem, it is what I cal " psudo-parenting " or simply giving birth and letting society raise the children."

    Well said.

    Ketchup is a Vegetable -

    ...allowing public schools to cut out a serving of cooked or fresh vegetable from hot lunch program child-nutrition requirements. The White House Office of Management and Budget estimated a potential US $1 billion annual savings in the cost of subsidized meals for low-income students.

    Wow, a company marketing to their potential clients. That is so awful of them.

    Let's go after the grocery stores, too, for "selling" shelf space so all the unhealthy yet overly popular cereals for children are at child's eye level. (Don't believe me? Look next time you go).

    Simple for two reasons:
    - There is no money here
    - The press loves to go after big chans and this would clearly get more press. How come they're not going after the other chains for doing the same thing?

    When I look for a fast food joint, I look for McDonald's, Why, I like it and I dont buy Happy Meals for my self. Maybe kids like McD's for the same reasons I do, plus they get a cool toy.
    McD's is great for breakfast but when it comes to lunch, BK is far better, IMO.

    Quote Originally Posted by snicksnack View Post

    See above - no money there and easier press going after the big companies.

    That wouls require something called responsibility - which is draining out of this country faster than anything.

    Parents want to have kids but have everyone tell them how to raise them so when the kid acts out they can blame everyone else but themselves but if someone teaches the child something they don't agree with all hell will break loose.

    A Geroge Foreman grill is a great way to grill inside - it drains out the fat and meats taste great off of them (we have a small one).

    Get a potato frier and make your own fries (using healthier oils) or cut the pootatoes up and bake the fries (no oils!).

    In the long run these ways can be a lot cheaper and healthier (they just require some work from the person preparing them but you can do a lot of the preperations ahead of time and can quickly get meals like these cooked and served).

    But yes, "fast" food does have it's convenience.
