McDonald's reportedly is rolling out its first new Happy Meal in years to coincide with Lent.
Nugget-sized Filet-o-Fish. That's the new idea McDonald's is rolling out this week just in time for Lent. The fast food giant says the Fish McBites Happy Meal comes with seven nuggets of fried fish, French fries, apple slices and a drink. According to USA Today, the rollout the the Fish McBites Happy Meal is the first of several new limited-time meal offerings. Lent is marked by many Christians in the 40-day runup to Easter. This year, Lent starts next Wednesday, Feb. 13 and lasts until the end of March. Often considered a time to practice sacrifice, many Catholics for years gave up eating meat on Fridays. According to the British newspaper The Daily Mail, McDonald's appears to be targeting more religious consumers with this new Happy …

McDonald's action comes on the heels of the U.S. government suspending purchases of meat which would have gone to the school lunch program.
McDonald's, which has two locations in Waltham, reportedly is suspending meat purchases from a California company after hearing health and animal cruelty concerns. McDonald's is one of several fast-food chains reportedly to cut off its relationship with Central Valley Meat Company after the federal government suspended its purchases. The move comes after an animal welfare group distributed a video of what appeared to be sick cows being abused as workers tried to get them to walk to slaughter, according to the AP. Regulations prohibit cows that can't walk from being slaughtered, according to the AP. The rule is meant to prohibit cows infected with mad cow disease from being used for food. Federal authorities told the AP the video does not …

So you dont eat there, like what they sell, or how their business looks... and because of that prevented others from making their own choices on where they want to eat and spend their money. Weird thing to be proud of.. keeping people from being able to make a choice all on their own.   more ›
