wow, mcd's really is the evil hell-spawn of the business world. getting people fat and killing them via heart disease and obesity is not enough, they have to take their passwords too. haha. what a bunch of a-holes.
@Asaf To be fair, McDonalds doesnt force the people who die of heart disease and obesity to sit on their asses and be listless all day which is the main reason so many people today get so f'in fat. Average fat and/or caloric content in food hasn't changed much in the past 50 years. What HAS changed is that people exercise much less, and expect everyone else to be responsible for their health, instead of getting off their asses themselves and getting fit. (F'in free-lunch mentality)
Interesting lack of thought process to your diatribe. McDonald's doesn't make anyone fat. McDonald's sells food and toy products. The Consumer is the one that makes themselves fat. Failure to eat an appropriate diet, lack of exercise, lack of making an effort to control the amounts of food they consume... I've read 3 reports on blogs about people eating McDonald's for an entire year and actually losing weight and having their LDL cholesterol points drop. It all depends on what you eat, how much of it you eat, and what you do when you are not eating.
Mindless drivel such as your only seeks to perpetuate the lack of responsibility that consumers should be accountable for. Quite frankly, consumers are 100% responsible for their own health. If you die of heart disease/failure/etc, you truly only have yourself to blame. I am slightly overweight and I known it's my own fault. If I ate better and worked out, I would be in terrific shape, even if I only ate McDonald's all day long.
Stop giving excuses to the mindless population that seeks to blame others, sue large corporations for the consumers lack of personal accountability that they fail to take, and then end up passing the buck (increasing costs) to the rest of the consumer base because these corporations are trying to recoup what they have lost from frivalous lawsuits.
