Plush Ronald Mcdonald
Plush Ronald Mcdonald
Ronald’s Not Smiling Anymore!
When I was a Child I rarely ever went to fast food places to eat out. There wasn’t many around our place, but when I got a little older I have noticed a big change within the area of our neighborhood. The fast food places have multiplied ten fold. It also came to my attention that McDonalds has been the number one place my friends and family seem to go to get a bite to eat at. Thinking it has to do something with the “a kids preference “. Because I for one don’t know what drives children to a place where a Man dressed as a clown is company figure. I for one was always scared of clowns and was terrified the day I actually confronted a Ronald McDonald Clown. You do know that most children are in fact terrified of clowns but much rather not tell you that till the day you actually come face to face to one you’ll know what I mean.
Besides the clown phobia, what makes people come to Mc Donald’s to eat?? For one its been known that kids toys have been a very good reason I’m sure. And its with that Ill state some facts and go from there.
For many Years I’m sure business have always tried to sell there products to but yet cant seem to market anything catchy enough to get the consumers attention. But wait lets have a target out for the younger generation. Its with that many business models use to get your business. Children have been the invisible engine keeps many places in business and pulls the strings of their parents arms to get what they want. People often think nothing of it because kids do what kids want to do to have fun to enjoy them selves.
Remember the Beanie Babies that was one of the plush animals that was promoted my McDonalds. It was all the rage. It was more like an addiction to anything that is collectible people change into a child themselves and loose all perspective of what they are doing. For one, people where buying these beanie babies and throwing the happy meals in the garbage, where’s the logic in that???? That specific toy marketed was more intended the adult collector than a child anyway, it would seem.
Many times over I my self have taken my own children to get a Happy meal and find my children more interested in the toy rather than their food. I tell them that I will not take them here if this is the case. I have also noticed the many happy meal toys my children seem to not care about as well, either it did not appeal to them or they already have it. I have given back many happy meal toys to McDonalds because I know if I keep it , it’ll just be thrown away. And that’s exactly what I want to point out more here is that happy meal toys are nothing more than garbage for the land fill. I’m sure a large percentage of these toys end up there ( Landfill).
When we start to notice that our kids habits turn into something more concerning than just a casual bite out to eat. We must start to recognize what is going wrong with our family’s healthy choices and nutrition.
A new law has recently passed to block happy meal toys in the meals starting this year in San Francisco to help curb child obesity.
