Well, the diference is that its not addicting (some would argue that it is though). If people get obese and die, thats their fault for not taking care of their health. Its like saying we shouldn't drive or buy cars because people sometimes die in them. Its usually not the fault of the car, its the driver (or another driver). If people can't control themselves from eating unhealthy food (and what person thinks McDonalds is healthy), then even if you keep them from McDonalds, they will find some other way to kill themselves. Its not McDonalds fault for making the food. Have everything in moderation...

i agree aita, Im not a vegetarian, and i love a good burger but mcdonalds is hardly the place for a good burger.

Heh, even the salad is high fat which they get away with because it's in the sauce.

^ thats true

^i love confusing posts

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying their stuff is healthy. Its prolly better to eat a piece of cardboard soaked in hobo urine than one of their burgers, and healthier too. I just don't think its McDonalds fault that people are fat, lazy, and dying...

Its not their fault that people aren't dieting, but its their fault they're putting out ads like pastor posted...

But some people are just too lazy to get their @ss up and actually count the huge amount of calories in their precious greasy Big Mac.

Well, I can see where you are coming from, but I think the world is getting way too PC. Once again, I think this falls under the self-control catagory. If people can't resist an advertisement, what does that tell you about the person in general?

I think its funny we are debating about McDonalds, and its not even turning into flames. This is better than a music thread!! :)

You'd be surprised at the effect that advertising has on people. Especially with Mcdonalds, there's adverts everywhere for new offers they've got going on. Seeing so many ads can have an effect on you, even though you might not realise it.
