    Not that that is an excuse, simply an explanation.
    Easy as shit.

    I can make more nutritious and better tasting meals in 1/2 the time and 1/2 the cost of going out.

        I personally think it is a good idea. It eliminates part of the problem that does not need to be there, the toy that attracts kids.

        If there were cheap, pre-made, easily accessible healthy food with toys...what might happen then? Think about that...
        It doesn't eliminate any of the problem. Parents still aren't parenting. If a parent is knowingly harming their kids because the kid screams less, then they will just find another source of bad nutrition to use.

        I was watching Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution, and the new generation going through school now are said to be on track to die before their parents. Is that McDonald's fault or the parents fault? Growing up in the south where the earlier generations grew up on very high calorie meals due to working on the farms/ranches; those are the people living 80+ years. Is it because of toys not being in happy meals?
