THE GREENING OF MCDONALD'S

This story I came across today provides an opportunity to say something I had been meaning to mention: Is it just me (i.e. Philadelphia) or are McDonald's ads radically changing? I've noticed that over the past year, the predominant color of McDonald's billboards and such has been... green. Not a color the beef-slinging fast-food chain has usually been associated with. This article says that it's part of a strenuous effort by the company to re-brand itself as a "healthy" eating choice. Good luck on that, Mickey. As long as you're still basing your menu around meat, you're just the same sad old whore who thinks the latest flashy negligee will suddenly make her attractive again.
