I think that the they should be able to sell any food they want. You are buying the food knowing very well that McDonald's is by far not the healthiest place to eat

Now I wouldn't eat the Oatmeal but only because I don't like my Oatmeal to taste like the crap that comes from the microwave. If someone is dumb enough to think that McDonald's can produce something healthy they are out of their minds. Have you seen the "healthy" apple slices they serve smothered in caramel.
