I understand they [Fast-food chains in general] provide jobs but surely the negatives out-weigh the positives...

Crap food [possibly addictive], leading to obesity leading to trips to the doctor, emergency unit -- protect the NHS...hmmm.

Care to expand on the positives of alcohol, or tobacco ?

You do realise it's possible to eat McDonalds and still have an overall healthy diet?

the sorry state of affairs is that if some kids didnt eat fast food multiple times a week, then they would be going hungry and not eating at all.

Its not right, but that the situation we live in today in this country.
 
Not sure why the ad is any better than the JL one by the way. Still the same style - terrible slow crooning cover song. Happy healthy looking family - the only difference is the ethnicity.

I didnt mean it was better or worse as an advert, I just think it is more like a typical JL ad than the ad JL have produced this year.

Also, doesn't an out of space alien also represent a different ethnicity?
 
Lovely ad. Most people will take it for what it is, just a bit of light hearted sentimentality and a diversion from reality.

Those that want to be miserable about it will probably have lots of other things in their life to be miserable about.
