You’re being ridiculous. McDonald’s made a business decision...now you make a personal decision. It’s called business. If you want your child to have a regular order of fries, you are free to buy it. I, for one, am happy McDonald’s did this. I will repeat what I said before...Children today know nothing but huge portions and that is one of the reasons they are do damn fat. And you’re talking to someone who could live solely on McDonald’s french fries for the rest of my natural life (of course, if I only ate french fries it would be such a long life!). We will agree to disagree on this one.

Hildy,
Yes, we will agree to disagree.

I understand it is a business decision and they are free to do what they want. Maybe I'm getting a bit cynical in my old age, but I don't think I am being ridiculous in questioning the Nanny State Political motivations that are apparently in play here.

As I said in another post, the Market will determine how this turns out. I just don't want the Michelle Obamas of the world dictating how Parents raise their children.

Anyway, it is what it is. The country has bigger fish to fry at the moment. I never to go McDonalds anyway, unless it's the only choice I have at the time...

Take care.
