The following excerpt is taken directly from the McDonald's website:
"McDonald's cares about our customers. We want to help them make informed choices not only when they come to our restaurants, but just as important, when they make decisions about exercise, diet, and other daily activities that can affect health.
We support healthy lifestyles by:
-Serving a variety of nutritious, high-quality food products and portion sizes.
-Providing nutrition information to help our customers make informed choices.
-Educating our customers about healthful eating and energy balance."

While you are reading all this information about how McDonald's is committed to helping us eat healthily, consider that the game pieces for McDonald's much-publicized Monopoly game come only on the following menu items:
-Large and Super Size® drinks
-Medium, Large and Super Size® Fries
-Hash Browns
In addition, a special Best Buy Chance piece (two Monopoly Game Stamps, plus one Best Buy Chance Piece) "is attached to Large and Super Size® Fry Cartons ONLY."
That last sentence is cut-and-pasted directly from the Monopoly game rules. The emphasis is in the original.
Yup. That's really getting behind that commitment to a healthy lifestyle. Thanks to my dear Elie for pointing out the fact that he could not get a game piece for their promo by eating one of their health-conscious "adult Happy Meals" for lunch today.
