San Francisco is usually a laid back kind of town; hipster, war, folk singer, Stoner and Whackos, all living together in perfect harmony.
But Tuesday's San Francisco passed new legislation, not like pancakes, at least not for local fast-food restaurants.
"Kid's meals" can no longer be sold with toys, unless you meet specific nutritional standards;Standards that can threaten McDonald's happy meals.
On Tuesday with a veto-proof vote from 8 to 3, San Francisco officials adopted a law that it would allow restaurants to give away toys with kid's meals, only if the meals have less than 600 calories, fruits and vegetables contain and drinks without excessive fat and sugar enthalten.Das law takes effect December 1, 2011.
The first thing that comes to mind is McDonald's happy meals. Since 1979, when happy meals were first introduced, meal, has used McDonald's children specifically free toys to directly market for children.
McDonald's can not say it frankly, but come on, we all know what these cheap toys - really "Produced plastic in China" are "Mommy I want McDonald's!"
Here's a happy meal from 1979, commercial in the Klingon:
Say San Francisco officials that law is designed to fight against obesity;hard to argue against that.But McDonald's is not happy darüber.Eine spokesperson for the company said they are disappointed with the new law called, and always the free toys in a happy meal "Part of the fun experience of family."
No doubt, a law like this is one of these evil "progressive" initiatives that so many Americans fear sind.Und Yes, it's very big brother-ish.And Yes, it is the Government the screws set to private industry.But, there are other solutions out there? we have a lot of fat children! check out easy!
Bury your head in the sand and pretend things are the same, 1979 we have had. Now in 2010, a great obesity epidemic - both children and adults - so, a change, a change, which is what sometimes must you calm buck. Also, the story and give a chance the law.
If you feel it is why for your children, your right to McDonalds are removed and cheap toys, it's easy to act umgehen.Nehmen your children to McDonalds, things, French fries and burgers you full, and then your bloated small behind the toys "R" US.Problem solved!
