The scary thing is not that they might win (I don't think they have that good a chance, but IANAL)... McD, BK, et al. might settle out of court to avoid expensive litigation.

So there will be a bunch of fat rich people (and richer lawyers).

A spokesman for a restaurant industry group has ridiculed the legal action.

"He must be aware that fully two-thirds of all foods consumed in America are consumed in people's homes. Is he proposing that we sue America's moms?" John Doyle of the Center for Consumer Freedom told ABC News.

Uh oh... look out moms, you're next...

Holy ****, this is almost as stupid as the coffee lawsuit that led to all coffee from fast-food joints being cool with the damn warning.

The place is named Kentucky Fried Chicken, they should realize that that means it's loaded full of fat.

If this lawsuit wins, after high school I'll go to that college in Wales that sent the huge book to my sister, or maybe Australia. Just away from these morons....

You'll notice the name is now just "KFC" -- much more p.c. I guess

Oh my god, that has to be the funniest **** I've EVER read... "I always thought it was healthy food..." YEAH RIGHT! BULL****! Can't people just accept the truth and see that THEY themselves are the one to blame? Man... ONLY in America.

[Knight Templar]

lol i just actually read the article. Funny ****. Crazy obese americans

[Top Gun]

As fat and greedy as they are I'm actually hoping that they win. That way it would pave the way for a string of other lawsuits and do corporate fast food some damage.

[Knight Templar]

Now if only AOL had a fast food chain.....

what's wrong with them? if you don't like, you don't go. They've success, you're envious, classical
Dunno how it is in the US, but in France, they clearly tell the amount of fat in the meals, they've always done so.

Uh no. Now it's fine for those old/wise enough to know that what they sell is a load of crap (re-constituted meat and potato). But they deliberately target the young with advertizing (propaganda) who don't know any better and create a climate where childeren feel that they need to eat ****e to "fit in". Mc Donalds's founder (the one who transformed it into a corporation) "persuaded" President Nixon's government to introduce anti union laws when it was in its infancy in exchange fot campaign donations. On top of that they censor their critics with SLAPPS.


Venom: Isn't there a french farmer that's started a vandalism campaign against them?

on the first subject, if pârents can't explain this kind of stuff to their children, they need to be whipped ( hmm, reading what that barbar dude said, I guess they can't anyway )

second topic: Yeah José Bové he even went to US once, I think he's been kicked out by the cops
This guy's a jester.

He came to East Anglia once trying to incite British farmers to do the same sort of thing. He has a certain charm about him. Those flimsy prefabricated buildings don't stand a chance against Tractors.

Seen the movie - very good!

edit: Does this mean I can sue Bud' if i get a beer belly?

I'm afraid you won't get too far away from ridiculous litigation here . A few months ago, some drunk guy tresspassed through another guys backyard and dived headfirst off this guys back fence into an empty canal, then sued the homeowner (successfully) because the canal was 'too close to the fence'.

We aren't quite as bad as you Americans, but we're close.

He came to my state too a couple of years ago, on a socialist convention (the World Social Forum) and managed to destroy a whole crop of experimental transgenics before they kicked him out...
