Not to mention, McDonald's specifically markets their menu structure at kids who come home to no parents in the more urban areas. Put it this way, what is the McDonald's in you area like between 3 and 6 in the afternnon. Every one I see has school kids in it and they have about $5.00 to spend, which is exactly where McDonald's menu is at.

In the end, there is nothing on the menu there that, when eaten every day, is in any way great for you. So, yes, eaten in moderation it is okay. But, when kids go there everyday essentially out of necessity, it is a bad thing.
