: The ONLY function of Ronald McDonald, Joe Camel, the Budweiser frogs, "Jack" (of -in-the-box fame), etc. is to lure children into these death-trap products. "Sure grease and fat and tobacco and beer are tasty, and you can be just like your fat old man!"

: Child abusers, one and all.

Oh geez! Here again, it's the parents' responsibility to educate their children on good health habbits. Catchy advertising is a common tool used to call attention to your product. If I had kids, and I saw something that could be harmful or a bad influence, then I would make damn sure they stayed away from it.

An example is that new "Crave" powdery candy that's packaged in a clear tube. The news segment mentioned several flavors it comes in, including the white-colored "Cloud 9". I'm not making this up!!! While this is clearly not in anything resembling good taste, still the CEO of that firm is not raising your children. And neither is Ronald or Dave Thomas.

Much love to all!
