its not that they are trying to make you think its healthy its that they are trying to show that they are trying to make it healthier for you. If you are going to McDonald's and not eating healthy its your own fault not theirs because they do provide healthy options. Noone is forcing you to have a Big Mac meal large sized with a large chocolate shake...you could have just as easily ordered an Asian Salad and a small Diet Coke which may not be extremely healthy but it is healthier.
And CJ...you can get a side salad without dressing if you really want....we actually don't load anything on any of our items come on the main thing you all are saying is money money money....yeah there is so little bacon on a bacon ranch salad that its not even a full bite worth...trust me I have made plenty of them...and I can tell you if I was back there or if anyone for that matter making it for myself/themselves yeah you'de put a whole lot more than they say to. The dressing comes in packets on the side you can choose to use or not use and how much you use so the only person loading on the dressing is you.

Let me put it to you this way:
The Big Mac: 32 grams of fat, good enough to give you a heart attack, with a large fry and a huge coke - you can look like Jared from Subway (before he lost the weight) in no time!
Does that sell you the BigMac? NO!!! You want to think it's healthy, and because it's quick and easy - American's are more likely to do it.
Nothing McDonald's has is healthy, they fruit and yogurt parfait is healthier than their salads - because they load their salads with the dressings and bacon bits, and other fattening unecessary items, just to top it off and make it look prettier.

Because they don't want to lose our business! The salads aren't even healthy because the chicken is cooked in fat and sodium, and the dressings contain it as well. And it is also very hard to eat a salad when you see how yummy the pictures of the burgers are!!

They have a bad rap for their fried food. Everyone wants to eat heathly and lose weight. They have to make people think they have healthy options for them in order to stay with the competition.

To make more money ... If people think there healthy than more people will go to eat there which means more money for the McDonald's corperation.

Just as all fast food restaurants, McDonald's DOES have healthy alternatives on their menu. It's up to YOU whether or not you you eat eat them.

I know. There have even been studies on it. their salads are even full of calories. As my dear friend persnickety says, those advertisements can be misleading. She is such a wise person.

McDonalds is a greedy corporation that finds your money much more appealing than you do its food.

DO YOU THINK THEY ARE GOING TO SAY THAT THEIR FOOD IS NOT FIT FOR PIGS????OF COURSE NOT THEY WANT YOUR MONEY---. IF SOMETHING OTHER THAN McCRAP WAS HARMING THE PEOPLE THE GOVERNMENT WOULD STEP RIGHT IN--- PROVIDED THE COMPANY WASN'T THROWING MILLIONS INTO THE CAMPAIGNS OF DIFFERENT PEOPLE RUNNING FOR OFFICE
