To be honest, despite being a total cynic when it comes to big business (I'm a hardcore socialist/borderline Communist that would be overjoyed if most infrastructure biz was state owned, but that's another debate), I totally fail to see why McDonald's have a responsibility to sell healthy food. No-one forces you to eat at McDonald's. No-one forces you to eat unhealthily. No-one forces you to eat a supersize meal.

If you don't want to eat unhealthy foods, then just eat somewhere else. Or make your own food. Yes, it's more work. Yes, it's more effort. But here's the kick. If EVERYONE did that, then all these fast food places would see their profits crumble and then they'd have to get their act together.

All food outlets should be forced to provide nutrition info on all their products but beyond that, responsibility lies with you. If you can't make the time to prepare healthy meals, then tough. Find the time. Or find yourself with a heart attack.
