McDonald’s ran a full-page ad in yesterday’s New York Times:*
“At McDonald’s we’re on a journey: What’s important to you is important to us.”
The ad says McDonald’s is taking these actions [with my comments]:
- Removed artificial preservatives from Chicken McNuggets and other items [Fine, but no big deal in my book.]
- Removed high fructose corn syrup from hamburger buns [And replaced it with what? Sugar? This matters? I’m guessing the price of HFCS must be close enough to the price of sugar to make this possible.]**
- Committed to only source chickens that have not been treated with antibiotics [OK. Now we’re talking important. For this alone, McDonald’s deserves high praise. My only question: by when?]***
The ad also summarizes the company’s additional actions, done and promised:
- Burgers are 100% beef
- Eggs are freshly cracked
- Salads feature baby spinach, kale, Tuscan red lea…
