uuummm...NO!! I think it's stupid that people that are over weight even have the nerve to sue McDonald's for that reason it's ridiculous!! Obesity, if not due to some sort of medical condition, is due to lack of self discipline or self control. Those people are CHOOSING to drive themselves to McDonald's to eat, instead of eating healthy foods and cooking for themselves. Aside from all of this, there's the point that there are 50,000 other fast food restaurants in the United States and no ones suing them??? It's just ignorant. This whole issue is just absurd, I'm not saying your question is absurd, it's actually a very good question, because people like myself can vent about things like this that pisses them off so much!!!!!

Blaming McDonalds for obesity in America is like blaming gun manufactures for every shooting-related death.
No one is forcing you to eat McDonalds.

I think obesity has a lot more to do with what we drink as opposed to what we eat. I look at the way my grandparents ate, everything fried in some kind of leftover grease..10 times worse than McDonalds, but they only drank water, tea, coffee and milk. I personally think high fructose corn syrup is to blame!

No. Obesity in America is the responsibility of people who don't know how to, or choose not to, make smart decisions when it comes to their diet.
McDonald's doesn't force anyone to eat there even though there are families in America who prefer to eat there on a daily basis.

No, it's about personal choices. You can go to McDonalds and chose a salad or eat their other foods in moderation and order water or diet soda instead of regular soda. It also starts in the home.. parents are not teaching their children how to make good decisions in food. My 4 year old eats wheat bread with no problem and when she is older she will be better able to choose wheat over white. When we go to McDonalds she gets the apple dippers instead of frech fries and gets a reduced fat milk instead of a soda. I never get the fries, I order the apple and walnut salad instead and I do wish though that the McDonalds in my area would let me substitute frech fries for a side salad or the apple salad.

by using fact they have a greenback menu. by using fact their nutrition is so nicely-known. by using fact they are the Holy Grail of rapid nutrition places, and human beings say McDonalds whilst they mean each and every rapid nutrition place that serves the traditional working stiff who needs a filling low value meal at as quickly as. different places would have meals that are extra useful for you, yet no longer on the comparable fee. Subway's large, yet their on your budget sandwich is $5. For which you will have 5 double cheeseburgers. in case you have $10 for the week, the place do you circulate?

Not unless they held all their customers down and FORCED those Big Macs down their gullets until they were all fat.
We need to quit blaming everybody ELSE for our own individual self-created problems in the this damn country...

No. People who don't eat right are to blame.
