you guys must have seen the fruitbag advert with the little girl who sings the rhyme "there was a little monkey......" to decide wether she want fries or a fruitbag
I HATE THAT ADD:grind:, am i alone???
also how many young kids would have a fruitbag over fries??

haha i hear you. she should be deep fried....:grind:

I hate it because,
(a) I think little children are like farts, you can only stand your own and this kid is extremely annoying to me.
(b) If i was behind this family in line, i would have smacked the parent for thinking that wasteing my time is ok so thier kid can be cute.
(c) You can just imagine a "real" maccas employee excitement to a pretemptious 5yr old doing this.
(d) If you kid can't make a decision, it gets what it is given. It worked for my brother and I when we were kids, if your child wants to chuck a tantrum, then it goes without.
(e) Its McDonalds, the freaking menu hasn't dramitically changed in the 30yrs i have been on this earth, you should know what you want before you get the front of the line.

My lord, now that i have that off my chest......

I've said it once and I'll say it again......going to McDonalds for health food is like going to a crack house for vitamins.I don't understand why people let there kids eat crap from there in the frst place....I wouldn't be seen dead there,or alive.:td::ninja:

everything in moderation I guess. I personally like the breakfast they make, but every other visit is a "need food no time to get proper stuff" kinda deal.

yeah well maccas should lay off the health food. they've made how much selling deep fried greasy crap? if i wanted something healthy, i wouldn't think to myself 'well i'll just go to mcdonalds for lunch'
i agree with all comments above that the kid and parents should be deep fried and smacked about.

on my fianl note, i will continue to show my loyal support of visiting at least once a week (drunk night/hangover visits not included). yep, i love their deep fried crap!! Tripple quarter pounder with cheese.....mmmmmmm

woah, triple quarter pounder! you need help man. I had one once and barely got through it with so much grease. :sniffle:

hey
i loath the advert but if it gets kids to eat 'fruit' ?? in a bag ? maybe it has some merit i suppose..
but really kids dont get taken to the golden archs to eat friut now do they?
then again some people class mcdonalds as food as well.. huh.. what the??
pure greasy evil s#!t if you ask me..
anyone seen 'supersize me' lately and the pictures of heath that frequent the place..? (insert spew emoticon here)
