Well, conditioning someone else's is illegal unless you work for the government.

No, they're not vegie-heads. They love their steaks and burgers. But they're probably more conscious of what they eat (and of the environment as a whole) than most kids their age.

Instead of McCrap style fast food, we get Lebanese. Honestly, I cannot remember the last time we went to a McFood place. Could be years.

Get them into that hemp protein shake!

personally i love mcdonalds (mostly) the fries do suck though and have way too much salt (still suck without salt though) the bic mac and the like have an amazing taste to them.

theres so much to dislike about mcdonalds but the taste is great

My experience has been quite different. I think the taste is one of the biggest arguments against MdDonald's food.

Cool, eh? ~:smoking:

Well, I'm sure its all fine and dandy now, but what about in several years when they go to college, and after staying up late hanging out with friends, one of them 'experiments' with some fast food burgers after being pressured into it. What if they realize one burger doesn't make them instantly fat; how long before they find out there is some real food at McDonald's and they begin to doubt what they knew, and then they start getting some fries with their orders, how long before they crave it, how long before they move on from just burgers and fries into milkshakes and desserts? By then they're in too deep to just kick the habit, they experimented with the burgers and found them edible and they thought eating more would be safe too. But it isn't and now they're addicted to the the real fatty foods.

Edit: "Fries are made from potatoes and potatoes come from the ground. Stuff that comes from the earth is good for you so If Fries come from the ground then they've got to be good for you, right?"

My last experience with a McDonald's burger of any kind was on holiday in Montreal. I almost threw up, and never touched one since. That was before reading books like Fast Food Nation. Now I wouldn't even walk into one except to use the bathroom.
