    Eating the toy would probably be healthier than the crap in a Happy Meal.

    Just as a point of interest, nutritional facts directly from Mcdonald’s website:
    Meal Item—Cals/Grms of Fat
    Cheeseburger: 300/12
    Small Fries: 250/13
    Child Cocacola: 110/0
    Total: 660 Cals, 25gs of Fat
    Side salad w/Dressing: 100/6
    Apple Slice Dip: 70/1
    6 Nuggets: 250/15
    1% Low Fat Milk: 100/3
    Total: 520 Cals, 25g of Fat
    Wow so much “healthier”!

    Gotta say SpongeBob selling carrots has made my mommy life a little easier. But the “healthy” food at McD’s isn’t always up to snuff. The apple slices have some weird taste to them. If you like apples, there’s no guarentee you’ll be able to choke these down. My 6 year old refuses to. Frequently, the lettuce in the salads is dry & not too tasty.
    But the burgers, nuggets and fries are almost consistently heavenly to small kids.
    Sometimes I hate fast food because the kids are more interested in the toy (Shrek & co.) and I end up making dinner in addition to the pricey kid’s meals. (Even kids tire of nuggets.)

    I am not really sure but the cat toy from McD. happy meal seems to say something that I find vulgar. My 5 yr old son brought it to me to throw away b/c he and I think it says”P** on me if you dare” I have not seen any of the Shrek movies b/c my kids are only 5 and 2, so I am not sure if this language is used in this movie.
