Have you been in McDonald’s lately? Have you seen the cute little pictures on the bags? I went in for breakfast recently, and as I was eating my sausage burrito, I stopped to look at this bag, and at first I thought, “OH! How cute! Look at the cute little piggy bank. I guess they’re saying how you can have breakfast at McDonald’s with only the spare change from your piggy bank.”
But then I took a closer look. I couldn’t figure out for the life of me what those square things at the bottom were (Russ later told me he thought they must be slices of cheese…what do you think?) but there is definitely no doubt that that is a GRATER standing up next to the piggy. And when I realized that, the whole thing took on a completely new meaning. And it was not very pleasant.
So, McDonald’s…you show me this cute little piggy…then you show me a GRATER…all while I’m eating a SAUSAGE burrito. Ugh. Suddenly I was losing my appetite.
Did McDonald’s know what they were doing when they put together these images? And if they did know…then why did they do it? It just doesn’t seem to make any sense. I, for one, was kind of turned off sausage burritos after seeing this.
Which is probably just as well, cos I’m sure they’re not very good for you, anyway. And *definitely* not good for cute little piggies like this one.
Sausage burrito at Mac Donald’s
I personnally think that you should be turned off completely on Mac Donald’s and all the other fast food places…..not only are they not healthy for you but who knows what goes into them. They also are full of sodium and the wrong fats. These raise your blood pressure and clog up your arteries. Why don’t you eat sensible and stay out of these places. Your body will thank you……………..
Re: Sausage burrito at Mac Donald’s
Well, I know all this. I saw the movie “Super-Size Me.” Wasn’t that gross? But I don’t go there that often, and when I do go to McDonald’s, it’s usually for lunch to have the $1 side salad and the $1 iced tea, unsweetened. The worst part of that meal is the Paul Newman dressing. All in all, I don’t think I do too bad. But yes, I take your point, and I DO feel better when I avoid fast food. Thanks, Barbara! (I’m assuming this is Barbara.)
