Disturbing things

[juliet]

Healthy kids learn better shocker - but much more disturbingly, down the bottom we learn that McDonalds are launching the McCarrot. Help.

Last night Pete made baked cabbage & lentils, with a sweet potato & some brocolli, for dinner (& v nice it was too); and I broke my sewing machine needle. The two things are, I believe, unconnected. So far none of the sewing-machine-bit companies I've emailed have replied telling me whether or not they sell replacement needles for a 30-yr-old machine. Bah.

McDonalds seem to be trying to copy Benjys at the moment, I walked past this morning and saw them advertising fruit toast.

They also have a disturbing cartoon advert on the cartoon network about kids eating well! Somehow it seems a little two faced...

The thing that scared me the most was the chicken mcnuggets kids meal advert. 'Now contains real chicken breast' says a small child joyfully. WHAT THE HELL DID IT CONTAIN BEFORE???

I'm betting on "mechanically recovered chicken flesh".
This is why I don't eat in McDonalds.
