San Francisco trying to ban Happy meals?

It's not illegal for a minor to buy condoms, nor is it illegal to sell them. If it was illegal to give minors condoms, some safe sex programs in schools would be illegal.
 
That's kinda what I figured.

I'm not one of those who think the availability of condoms will greatly enhance promiscuity in teens. They already have hormones for that.
 
I don't blame them. McD's Happy Meals is a marketing machine and the food is fucken disgusting.

When I get my nephew over (he's 6) and I ask him where he wants to go eat, he used to ask to go to McD's... I always said no. He asked one day why and I sat him down in front of my laptop and showed him fat pictures of American kids. "Do you want to be a fattie ? Do you want people pick on you? Do you want to be picked last? Do you want cute girls to smile at you?"

He probably just wanted the toy.

That's how we were as kids. That's the only reason my cousins want to go to McDonalds.
 
He has 2 treasure chests of toys. It was more of "being cool" since the marketing of it is created to give it a "cool thing to do" concept.
 
Health group sues McDonald's over Happy Meal toys - Yahoo! News

update: Now someone is suing McD for adding toys to the meal? ummm... last time I check, aren't the parents paying for the meals? where is the discipline? where is the training? I remember when my mom only buy me happy meals (with toys) if I was good for like a week. It is more of a treat than a meal.
Given that you can buy the same food without the toy, then I don't think they have much of a case there.
