Just like Joe Camel moved to live with all the other cancer and emphysema stricken senior citizens in Florida, some are calling for the retirement of Ronald McDonald, a 50 year old icon that has surely pushed many into obesity, heart disease and other health ailments.
Corporate Accountability International has kicked off a campaign to retire the hamburger clown that was designed to appeal to children.
“McDonald’s, and its iconic clown, is not only the face of the epidemic: it is the engine behind it. No corporation has done more to hook kids on unhealthy food,” said Stacey Folsom, spokeswoman for Corporate Accountability International.
Although they’ve contacted McDonald’s about their wishes, they haven’t received an answer yet.
One bonus, according to SF Gate, is that Ronald McDonald’s image doesn’t appear as often on McDonald’s website.
Maybe his title has changed to hamburger emeritus.
