Their famous golden arch trademark . I wonder if it had anything to do with it being turned upside down to represent Bush as a coward ?

1. Seriously? That sounds about as smart as New Coke.

My son could recognize McDonalds when he could barely talk. I was appalled, but still, if it ain't broke...

3. It's true .

Though I don't know why they have decided to change it , as it is one of the most instantly recognisable things , along with Coca Cola and a Christian Cross . The newsreader finished off by saying that they are going to have a golden question mark , but I think he was was being ironic .

4. Maybe a golden calf, just to see if people are paying attention. eom

2. That seems kind of dumb

Why would they do that?

5. First they got rid of the plastic spoon coffee-stirrers, now this!

I rarely eat there-the only lunch/dinner I like is the McFish. I do love Egg McMuffins, as unhealthy as they are. I rarely eat them, because I'm not up for eating greasy food early in the morning and they don't serve them at lunch time.
