I just can't believe this!

Imo all fast food chains should be banned. Or at least be forced to make healthy options available, not just healthy sounding ones. Sorry people but the food that they serve for the most part is garbage.

That's just silly, if you don't like don't eat it. Might as well ban freedom of speech too, most of what people say could be considered garbage as well

The funny thing about the double down, is that there was just an article last week on cfcn.ca about one egg being higher in cholesteral than one double down. So does that mean we need to ban the egg also?

Subway, YUCK.... Quizno's, YUM YUM. HEHE

I do like quiznos, but Mr. Sub takes the cake just harder to find locations.....

And i cant see the double down being all that bad, its healthy, just chicken cheese, and bacon....oh and a 30 minute run afterwards! Problem solved....

People dont realize you can eat whatever garbage food you want but the appropriate amount of exersize is required so that you dont balloon up afterward!

I agree, the food overall in fast food chains is garbage... But I can tell you this, even if you go to a fine dining restaurant, the food isn't that good for you either. Remember lots of butter, oils, carbs. So eating out overall isn't that great. So do we ban much more than Happy Meals?

Education is what is key!!! Where is the education, being in schools or by parents? It is up to us, as individuals to make our own choices, not governments.

So I disagree with banning, why? If I choose to live off McD's then I should have that right... As a father of 2, we do eat out at times, we do have occasional McD's, but again other than that, we also try to lead a healthy lifestyle. I should always have that choice!!!

Funny, Soviet Union fought long and hard for freedoms, and probably still do. We take what we have for granted, and now let government tell us what to do. Call us the New Soviet Republic!!!

Just wondering, in your opinion,
Are we as humans solely responsible for global warming as well?
Are Oil-sands really that bad? 1/10 of 1% of global co2
Are cell phones dangerous to talk on while driving? (no texting that's for idiots)
These are just a few quick questions for d-----y and other like minded individuals, that I wonder about.

IMO #1 No wake up. # 2 Better than liberal tax & buy else where policies. # 3 If you can't talk and drive you should walk.

I can't wait for the MASSIVE, ASTONISHING, GROUNDBREAKING, EARTHSHAKING Media announcement, that life can be bad for your health, and that all of the do-gooders on this rock with their brilliant idea's CANNOT FIX US or the planet. JIMO.

A sampling of the air may be in order....Just a thought.

Haha nice, I don't think I would have made the connection between a kids happy meal and global warming.

Just for fun, I will play your game

#1 Obviously not "solely" but that doesn't mean we don't contribute. I would say we do a "good" job at pitching in, and by good I mean fantastic. I guess we shouldn't look at ourselves and blame the stupid volcanoes, why can't they play nice like us humans?

#2 Really bad compared to what?

#3 Talking on a cell phone is different from talking to someone sitting besides you. When you are talking to someone sitting besides you, the other person is also aware of the surroundings (stops talking to you while you turn left in a busy intersection) and can communicate with you effectively depending on the context. Also, studies show that reaction times while using a cell phone are impaired. I tend to prefer sharing the road with drivers who are not impaired, I dunno maybe it is just me.

Just my "d-----y" opinion.

I do think that the best solution, is through better education. After all, legally banning the happy meal is silly. Anyways, I appreciate the distraction
