Ban Happy Meals?

Sure. They're bad for you, they exploit kids, get rid of 'em.

This is government overreach. If you don't want a Happy Meal, don't buy one.

Don't ban 'em, but do change 'em to be healthier.

To: anyone

If the rate of abortion continues at an estimated 40% of all pregnancies in NYC, the market demand for Happy Meals would likely gradually fade anyway in the years to come, so why the rush? Is enlightened Western Liberal self-extinction not fast enough a process of change? —I can imagine an emerging demand for artfully served vegan mush marketed to elderly Liberal NYers taking the place of those Happy Meals instead. Maybe each mush bowl will come with a free slogan.

They’re going to take away MY happy meal? No way. Hey, I got the cutest little elephant in a happy meal, and he sits on my walker!
