San Francisco is generally an established new type of city; hipsters peaceniks, folk singers, consumers, whackos, all living together perfect harmony.
But on Tuesday, San Francisco passed new legislation is not so lovey-dovey, at least not for local fast food restaurants.
"Kids meals" already cannot sell it with toys, if specific; nutritional standardsstandards that may threaten to Happy Meals McDonalds.
Tuesday, 8 3 veto-proof vote, San Francisco, officials approved a law that would allow restaurants to give toys with meals for children only if meals have less than 600 calories, contain fruits and vegetables and include drinks without excessive fat or sugar. law takes effect on December 1, 2011.
The first thing that comes to mind is happy McDonalds meal. Since 1979, when introduced Happy Meals, McDonald's has used guys, specifically free toy, food to market directly to children.
McDonalds could not indicate which frankly, but come on, we all know what those cheap plastic "made in China" toys really for - "Mama I McDonalds!"
Here is a commercial Happy Meal since 1979 in Klingon:
San Francisco officials say that the law is designed to help combat; childhood obesityhard to argue against.But McDonald's isn't happy about él.Un company spokesperson said that they are disappointed with the new law and called getting free in a Happy Meal toy "part of a fun, family experience".
A law like this without a doubt, is one of those bad "progressive" initiatives so many Americans have fears de.Y Yes, very big brother-ish.And Yes, the Government put the screws to private industry.But there are other solutions out there? we have a lot of fatty children! simply view!
Not burying your head in the sand and pretend things are the same as they were in 1979.Ahora, in 2010, we have a major obesity epidemic, both children as adults - so to make a change, a change that matters, sometimes have to the ball of the historia.Por therefore, calm and give an opportunity to law.
If you think that it is anti-American for children to be stripped of their right to McDonalds and cheap toys, it is easy to circumvent the ley.Llevar children to McDonald's, things they filled with fries and burgers, and then drag their butts soon bloated at Toys "r" US.Problema solved!
