본문내용
In 2003, a judge in New York dismissed a lawsuit filed on behalf of two obese teenage girls against McDonald’s. The lawsuit alleged that the fast-food giant had “negligently, recklessly, carelessly, and/or intentionally” marketed products to children?such as burgers, chicken nuggets, fries, and sodas?that were “high in fat, salt, sugar, and cholesterol.” And it had done so without warning customers of the risks of “obesity, diabetes, coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, strokes, elevated cholesterol intake, [and] related conditions” associated with such foods and beverages.
In his decision, the judge noted that the plaintiffs had failed to show that the girls had no way of knowing the risks of fast food. Moreover, the judge pointed out, “Nobody is forced to eat at McDonald’s.”
A spokesperson for McDonald’s expressed relief, saying, “Common sense has prevailed.
