uh, wrong. The nations public heath crises is lazy parents who would rather cave in and buy their kids this junk instead of cooking healthy food...hell, im guilty of it. It has nothing to do with the clown. These stories really irritate me. Personal responsibility people! Sometimes I just dont want to cook and Mickey D's is right up the road and cheap.. so yeah, I feed my kids McDonald's.
"Now, they're promoting processed fresh apples dipped in caramel sauce and sweetened milk as 'healthy' choices," said Gosliner. "Well, these meals and these choices are hurting our children's health."
Again, its up to the parents to decide if they want to feed their kids this stuff. Getting rid of the clown is not going to make a difference.
It would be nice for them to go after that creepy BK guy though.
