they're trying to mind fuck.
go play with our toys,then eat our food,work for us...
they are trying to make a connection with kids when they're young,which is perfect to effect them.
thats what i think.

I have a pair of younger cousins who have collected every happy meal toy for the past 8 years. Needless to say, they're fat little balls of lard. I don't know what the fuck my aunt is thinking constantly taking them there.

When I was a kid, it was a treat to go to McFatty's, but I only went about once or twice a month.

Parents who don't want their kids to grow up with unhealthy eating habits should be responsible enough to feed them something other then hamburgers and fries. It's easier to blame McDonalds.
Personally, I think McDonalds is pretty low making those toys to try and draw in little kids to eat their crap, but I don't feel we can reasonably blame McDonalds for people being fat because they ate there. Nobody forces anyone to eat that crap. It's all individual choice. I crave greasy hamburgers like you wouldn't believe sometimes, but you don't see me running off and pigging out at McDonalds because I know how unhealthy it is. If I can restrain myself, so can other people.
Did this turn into a mini-rant? Sorry.

I was lucky to make it there ONCE a month, when I was a kid.
All the kids I knew who got to eat out once or more per week are quite overweight now. Some dangerously so (>400 pounds).
Fuck McDonald's.

What exactly is the problem here? Sure, they're shitty toys, but no one's making you buy them. Parents who don't want their children to be overweight need to put their foot down and tell their kids they're not getting McDonald's for dinner. Frankly, I don't even see why kids would want toys like that. I'd just as soon buy them some Lego's, and I'm sure they'd be happier with that.

dear ellemysh,
contrary to what you're saying,we can reasonably blame McDonalds for people being fat because they ate there.
because it is non-ethical what mcdonalts and that kind of eating places doing..
its something against nature they are doing.
same sized patateos,people driven into their restaurants by advertisements,using their capitals through capitalism and opening millions of restaurants around world and that causes to other small places closing,no animal rights etc...
list is long,
some about that topic some not.
some causes people to go fat,and they produce these reasons i believe.
and paradigm you say;
'they're shitty toys, but no one's making you buy them. Parents who don't want their children to be overweight need to put their foot down and tell their kids they're not getting McDonald's for dinner.'
wish lotsa people can see that,but they are millions who dont get it.
so its not ethical mcdonalts to do that,even you have a right to dont go to that stupid clown's place.
thats what i think.

well mcdonalds sells toys like mcdonalds drive thru, mcdonalds play restaurant, mcdonalds cash register. other than playing the usual games, it is now kids playing as if they were actually working in mcdonalds (wow what a brilliant job it is). so as said in a magazine "who needs advertising if the kids are trained for mcjobs from the start".

How can you blame McDonalds for people exercising their free will to eat there or not? Couldn't they simply...not eat there?
I admit I'm new to PAL...and I hate McDonalds for MANY reasons, but how can McDonalds force people to eat there? Don't people have a choice whether or not they want to eat there? I mean...don't they? I'm not getting that bit...lost in translation or something.
