: It is my opinion, which I have shared with Dave and Helen, that they should now ask the Court of Appeal for an injunction against McDonalds advertising to children, and ever advertising their food as being nutritious!!!! That would really f**k them up.
There is no law against advertising to children, but there are laws against slander.

McSpotlight: On the other hand, there are laws against false advertising and misleading statements of nutrition. Even here in the U.K.
