McDonald's Updates Happy Meal Toys To Promote Healthier Eating
McDonald's has announced it will update the Happy Meal with new rules to promote healthier eating habits among children.
To encourage healthier choices, Happy Meals will now come with healthier sides and drinks such as apple slices, carrot sticks, and low-fat milk instead of fries and soda.
The changes are part of McDonald's ongoing commitment to the well-being of children.
McDonald's has offered healthier options in its Happy Meals since 2013. However, the company has come under fire in recent years for the high-calorie and sugary content of many of its menu items.
The new Happy Meal changes are a step in the right direction toward promoting healthier eating habits among children. However, it remains to be seen whether or not the changes will be successful in reducing childhood obesity.
