Let the market decide if McDonalds should make healthier food.
I would, however, stop subsidizing ConAgra and Monsanto so we can break free of this artificial era where it’s cheaper to eat unhealthy than healthy.
I did add the real problem,government subsidies to companies like ConAgra and Monsanto that have created an artificial world where eating unhealthy is cheaper than eating healthy.
Well it isn’t the only healthy option that can match McDonalds on price either. Why? Because vegetables, whole grains and beans are much cheaper than beef, even not so great beef.
But that’s not even the point of the article, which is the CEO partially making the case that they just sell what they sell and DON’T listen to consumer demand, despite then going on to give examples of how they make menu changes to meet consumer demand.
It’s sort of a strange article. “We don’t cater to consumer demand…except when we do like kid’s options and our deal to expand the menu to include Beyond Meat.”
Lol must be why they’ve been making their menu healthier for ten years.
I swear there’s no piece of corporate agitprop you guys won’t eat up. Healthier food has been the trend in the food service industry for a decade now.
What he was basically saying was, they weren’t getting rid of the unhealthy stuff, as long as it sells well and will sell healthy stuff, if it sells well.
