McDonald's Launches Healthier Menu Items

CHICAGO - Coming soon to a McDonald's near you: Adult Happy Meals, featuring salad, bottled water, pedometer and advice to walk more.

The hamburger giant outlined plans Thursday to introduce the "Go Active!" meals for grown-ups at all 13,500 of its U.S. restaurants May 6 along with other steps designed to make its fare ? and its image ? more healthy.

Okay, this article is interesting and all. McDonald's offering so-called healthier alternatives and whatnot, but the main reason I'm posting this is to see if any of you had the same reaction that I did when I read the headline.

My first thought was "adult Happy Meals?! What do you get as the toy?!" :p

Back to the subject. What's interesting, is that I have heard somewhere, that McDonald's salads can be one of the worst things you can get on their menu. I've heard that a regular cheeseburger has less fat than one of their salads.
 
Great Minds Think Alike !!

My first thought was the "TOY" also!!

Woohoo! I hope so! I'd be at McDonald's all the time! :p That'd sure work off some calories! I'd skip the food and go straight for the toy!
 
Haha! Thats great, but what about the guys? :mad:
 
You mean McDees is getting into the Adult Toys scenario in Tokyo? What do they do, cator for Love Hotels? :D
 
Errr i'd rather a child happy meal then :bawling:

Well, yeah, once you drown it in dressing it will have more fat than one of those tiny "regular" cheeseburgers.

Also, dietary fat does not necessarily equal body fat...
 
I don't think a lot of people think about that, though.

They think that just because they're getting a salad, that it must be good for them. Some people are not even taking the dressing into consideration, I don't think.
 
Yeah thats like the people that order 2 double cheeseburgers and a large fry, with a diet coke :P
 
Yeah, I guess a lot of people don't realise about the dressing... however, even if the amount of fat is the same it's much healthier to have the mono-unsaturated fat in, say, olive oil than the saturated fat in the greasy beef and cheese. Although I don't know if McD's uses real olive oil. Probably not.
 
Speaking of toys, I was wondering. If a phallic toy was fixed up so it would link to the motion of the wheels of an exercise bike, would that encourage women to exercise? :blush:
 
:blush: mcdonalds would probably include edible panties with ronald mcdonald on the front..

Speaking of toys, I was wondering. If a toy shapped like a cupped hand was fixed up so it would link to the motion of the wheels of an exercise bike, would that encourage men to exercise? :-)

powered by exercise, I might be encouraged to. And to change the channel & volume you had to put out a real
burst of energy! Some men would probably put their wife on so they could relax & eat while watching TV!
