Le Happy Meal. Because, you know, tooling around the French countryside, you never know when you'll need a quick, dependable fix for a few fries with a mayo packet. That's easy to pronounce.
That was my most memorable Happy Meal. Second up was one a pal and I grabbed from the drive-through on the way home from an art show in Vicksburg. Because, you never know, sometimes an inflatable Pirates of the Caribbean sword is just the conversation jump starter you need for the ride home. En guarde!
For me, the Happy Meal is a road munchie with a consolation toy ...Welcome to the Lilla beddinges google satellite map! something to play with when you finish those fries sooner than you expect.It's an occasional guilty pleasure - but, so occasional (and kid-sized), I'm flummoxed on that guilt feeling.
Jackson played a big role in bringing the new Happy Meal to life, as a test market for the new version that automatically includes fruit and the kid's portion of fries.
"Because it did so well, this work ... in Mississippi helped to inform how we would roll this out" in the rest of the U.S., said Cindy Goody, director of nutrition at McDonald's. By month's end, all 14,000 U.S. McDonald's restaurants will officially have the new Happy Meal. It's been in Jackson a year already.
Why apples? A lot of testing ranked apples as kids' favorite fruit, she said.
They worked closely with supply chain partners; it took several years to grow the apple trees to ensure sufficient supply for every Happy Meal, she said, noting that apples also appear in the fruit and maple oatmeal, fruit and walnut salad and apple pies.
"What was really interesting, when we talked with customers, 88 percent of them knew we offered apples as a choice to french fries, but only 11 percent actually purchased apples," Goody said. "Now, the big difference is, apples are now automatically included with the fries.
Consistent feedback from parents is, they like the idea of both fruit and fries in the Happy Meal.
"It eliminates the food fight. Because we know that kids love our world-famous French fries and parents want to be able to feel good about what they're serving their kids. Fruit helps with that.
"The other thing that we're being asked about is, how about vegetables?" she said.China professional plasticmoulds, "As part of our national nutrition commitments, we've committed to including a fruit, vegetable or a low-fat dairy in our Happy Meal.
"This is just the first step as part of that journey."
McDonald's is taking a greater focus on nutrition, both in portion sizes and offering more foods from the recommended food groups, Goody said, such as introducing more whole grains with fruit and maple oatmeal, and the summer national launch of blueberry-banana nut oatmeal.
Additional examples: offering 1 percent lowfat milk and fat-free chocolate milk; a 15 percent decrease of the amount of sodium across its menu by 2015.
"We've also made a commitment by 2020 to reduce the amount of calories, saturated fat and added sugars across our menu."
McDonald's feeds the equivalent of the U.S. population once every 11-12 days,At Blow mouldengineering we specialize in conceptual prototype design. she said.
That figure stunned me, particularly since they only feed me once every three or four months.I found them to have sharp edges where the injectionmoldes came together while production.Iowa Mold tooling designs and manufacturers mechanics trucks,
Goody said, "We're committed to being part of the dialogue and the solution as it relates to people's well-being.
"It's about being a good community citizen."
Goody offered more good news that I tucked away, just on a personal level. The Happy Meal's burger is the same portion size as McDonald's burger first introduced in 1955 (250 calories).
