In McDonald commerials, they always show *skinny* people.
NO OFFENSE TO YOU SKINNY OR *BIGGER* PEEPS

But it's my opinion,
They should show bigger people, cause like, if you eat it all the time, you *will* get fat.
Then the kids meals always support being healthy. But truly, the only kinda healthy thing is the supah teeny packs of apples. Not to mention, they are *SALTY* DX

Live with it.
A lot of companies get creative in bending the truth and making themselves look good.

My class wrote articles about this in Photography class.

Almost all advertizements that use people in them do this.
Rich, skinny, happy people. (No offense to anyone intended.)
It's just their subtle way of saying, "You want to be like them? Buy this product."

And we keep continuing this idea, because it's the "norm" and what people want to be.
So yeah...

Not everyone is that stupid though, I hate McDonalds and I refuse to support it. If other people want to, fine. Free country.

I like McDonalds, and the ads are meant to be that way. I'm skinny and eat McDonald's bi-weekly but I run every day.

I'm probably living proof that eating at McDonalds too much is terrible for you. Bahaha. xD I'm getting better, though!
There's one literally a block from my high school, so before school I go there and usually get a tea or something. xD It probably explains why about 50% of my school is pretty much overweight...It's terrible.

But they do have salads and such there. Skip the dressing or just put a little bit on and it's not that bad health-wise.

That type of advertising is very misleading, though. Very rarely do you see any heavier or 'normal' people in commercials. It's ridiculous.

It"s not as much the food is the problem, it's people's decisions that eating fast food everyday is good.

It's the fact that McDonalds doesn't give about quality. They want quantity and want it fast. If they actually took the time and grilled up their burger fresh from a butcher (organic duhh) and took the time to go get fresh vegetables and took the time to go get real breading to fry the chicken, then we might actually be getting some nutritional values from that meal like the skinny people in the commercials supposedly are. They want us to believe if we eat at Mickey Dees then we will look like them.

I'm a picky eater, I guess you could say.

I agree with @whispers
I stopped eating there when I realized how much processed crap I was putting into my body.
I am disgusted by McDonalds
Although, its not the only place doing this, its just a very large one.

It's called Publicity.
They don't want any 'negative' advertisement.

I'm one of the most picky eaters.
Which is why my parents are going broke because of me.
Everything they'd suggest for me to eat, I'd usually reject.

Like really, I hate Tacos, Pizza, Burritos, Nachos, Fried rice, Ramen noodles, Chicken noodle, Spaghetti, Pie, Chocolate, Cake, Steak, Pork, Hot dogs, Jello, Yogurt, Salad, Turkey, Hamburger, Ice cream, Waffles, Pancakes, Eggs, most Sausages, BLT's, Fish, Lobster, Sandwiches, Corn dogs, Corn, Donuts, Cup noodles, etc.

Whenever I go to McDonalds I just like the fries.
But I think Wendy's and Burger King beats McDonalds.
