Why the McD’s Happy Meal is Illegally Sold

16 March 2011 No Comment

This is not a long post, but I wanted to share a fascinating article that I found on a blog called Appetite for Profit that Krystal Bonner has mentioned in a previous post. The article I am referencing in the title can be found here.

In summary, Michele Simon, JD, MPH explains how the Happy Meal sold at McDonald’s violates laws already on the books about advertising to children. Quite the fascinating read from a lawyer (and public health expert) who is also food-minded in her focus.
