31. Yes there is a current lawsuit happening regarding McDonalds.
McDonald's faces lawsuit over Happy Meals.

Weeks after a Silicon Valley county became the first in the nation to ban toys from McDonald's Happy Meals and other food promotions aimed at children, a public health watchdog group called on the fast food giant to remove the playthings from all its meal packages.

Citing toys aimed at promoting the latest "Shrek" movie, the Center for Science in the Public Interest said that the plastic promotions lure children into McDonald's restaurants where they are then likely to order food that is too high in calories, fat and salt.


Crazy! Whatever happened to accountability and responsibility, never mid common sense?
