San Francisco bans most Happy Meals at McDonalds

The city's board of supervisors votes to forbid restaurants from giving away toys with meals with high levels of calories, sugar and fat

The measure will make San Francisco the first major city in the country to forbid restaurants from offering a free toy with meals that contain more than set levels of calories, sugar and fat.

I don't know about you guys, but I love Micky Ds. I work at Burger King, but still like McDonalds better. I have to say though, its about time. This won't affect me really since I don't get kids meals. But I hate how McD tries to show that they are about being fit when all the food does is make kids fat. I think sale will go down if they stop including toys in alot of them. Yet they could just raise the prices of the ones that do have toys and are more healthy.

in my opinion they should be rewarded with a toy when they just decide not to eat there!!

Thats kinda dumb but smart too. Most kids go to McDonalds because of the toys, but now that San Francisco is banning toys in happy meals it might help.

This is a pretty legit idea. Maybe they'll make better meal choices if they don't get toys with bad food.
