Cheesburger bill passesThe U.S. Cheeseburger bill has passed its reading in the house. The bill makes it illegal to sue a food company (e.g. McDonald’s) because you are obese from eating their food. I personally am hoping that this doesn’t really accomplish anything, because I think the best way for companies to serve healthier food is to be running scared. The tobacco industry should be the example here… you shouldn’t be running ads which suggest that “a new special is waiting for you everyday” at McDonald’s; doing so means that you are intentionally damaging people. After all, it is unlikely that McDonald’s can truly stand behind the “more study is needed” crap that the tobacco industry tried to pull. Although I do not eat at McDonald’s, I think that all these fast food restaurants should immediately switch from the tobacco lying-style marketing to the type of marketing used by the alcoholic beverage industry: McDonald’s: Please enjoy responsibly
