Nice stuff there. I expect this to go over very poorly. I bet McDonalds goes back on this stupid idea.

No caramel apple dip?

McDonalds pies are now baked, not fried. If I want a fried pie, I want a FRIED PIE. Fortunately, In Texas we have Whataburger, where I can go for fried pies.

I would never feed food from McDonald’s to my kids. Happy Meal or unhappy meal it is just gross and unhealthy.

They went from McDonald’s Happy Meal to Michelle’s Crappy Meal.

Guess they’ll have to call the new one-the UNHAPPY MEAL.

I haven’t set foot in a McDonald’s for years. I have known several McDonald’s executives, and none of them eat at the McDonald’s “stores”, either. They eat at quality restaurants, or cook at home with their families.

McD’s response to pressure from the Wookie is just another reason for me to never go to McDonald’s.

I see nothing wrong with reducing portions. Our kids think these huge portions are normal, and they are not. A healthy life requires portion control..we eat something like 35% more than we did in the 1960’s. That’s a lot of food and that’s why so many people are so damn fat.

If I recall, Burger King came out with a Veggie Burger because of the pressure from some Vegan groups.

After they lost a bunch of money, the Veggie Burger disappeared from the Menu.

The Market works, the Market picks the winners and the losers. People like the Obama’s think they know best, but they are and will always be wrong.

Mickey D's has got a win-win situation here ...

They get Michelle off their backs - but the little brats are gonna whine about smaller portions of fries with the Happy Meals and DEMAND that Mom buy an additional small order of fries for them ...

Ca-Ching !!!

BTW: Here is what Michelle scarfed down recently to the tune of 1800 calories ...

BUT, in Michelle's defense, she also DID have a Diet Coke ...

Why doesn’t Moochelle just make a menu for them?

I mean McDonalds doesn’t know how to do it themselves, obviously

Maybe she can design one ‘state approved’ menu and ALL the fast food restaurants can seel that same thing.

After all you have to make it fair- cant have one chain have a better menu than the others...
