If you look closely all their products have a very clear health warning. It reads M C D O N A L D S, when you see this you know it's not healthy.

Well, unhealthy ingredients yes.. but any educated person about how to cook things knows they cook things in oil and use low grade meats that have who knows what in them.
You aren't supposed to eat fast food at all but if you must only like once every 10 days. Also, if you gorge on any kind of food and dont burn the extra calories off you will gain weight regardless. They just provide a quick way to fill you up so you arent walking around hungry.. its up to you whether you choose a 6 pc nugget or a super value sized big mac meal with a large milkshake and fries.

McDonalds are simply suppling a demand. People need to be aware of the health risks the food presents, and need to take responsibility for their own actions. Parents need to understand that by feeding this food to their children, they are destorying any hope those children have of a healthy future.
Putting warnings on cigarette packets and even banning cigarette advertising has done little to stop people doing it. Education is what you need.

Yeah, technically they should. Every can of Coke should have a warning saying "May destroy teeth and stomach lining, very likely to make you swell up and be fat, and should not be taken by people with diabetes". Cars should come with warnings that say "May cause injury or death if driven when drunk, too fast or by a moron". Versace dresses should carry warnings saying "Wearing this dress may contribute to feelings of low self-esteem in teenage girls and the continuation of an unrealisitc body-image. May also be a contributory factor to eating disorders including anorexia." And so on...

People should already know that Mcdonalds is bad for you such as cigarettes. And people don't eat at Mcdonalds every day like people smoke every day. It's a little different. If people eat at Mcdonalds every day, that's not cool!! They are asking for health problems. Did you ever see "Supersize Me".

No, silly that is just because people eat it all the time. It is only unhealthy if you eat it everyday. You would get ill if you ate anything everyday. McDonald's is safe because they have variety. Just don't eat double meat cheese burgers everyday. I don't agree with the corporate aspect of it though. Read, "Fast Food Nation"

Yeah sure but if you want to be that pedantic, why dont we just forget all about common sense and put warning labels on everything, anything can hurt you if you use it the wrong way. Smoking just a little bit in anyway is really bad for you. trhere is no reponsible way to smoke.

Yes, they Bloody well should.
& a BIG Warning that the Fries cause cancer, from the Use of Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil!
But I doubt it every1's afraid of upsetting Corporate America!
MONEY MONEY MONEY is all that interests them not that people can get ILL!
