Macdonalds not linked to Houston fat problem claims Macdonalds

Houston, Texas.

America's fattest city yesterday turned to the Macdonalds burger chain in a bid to reduce obesity after Men's Fitness magazine voted Houston the nations fattest city for the third year in a row.

Macdonalds who have more restaurants in Houston than in any other town in the world, 255 in all, claims that despite the fact that that it's dominating presence in the city is in "no way" linked to the fat p
roblem, they will be making an effort to help the people of Houston slim down.

"We can't refuse to serve people. That would be bad for our image" Gerald Reasy, Macdonalds' president told BIGfib.
"What we’ve decided is to change our marketing tack and choose a more truthful approach. We think we owe that to the community."
"We're going to be putting pictures up of whole cows being bloodily fed into mincers in an effort to show people what they're really eating, some photos of destroyed tropical rainforests to show the effect Macdonalds has on the environment, and we're going to stop calling the white sperm-like gunk that we put on everything "Mayonnaise" and call it Chemical Slop ™ instead.

We're replacing the term French Fries with Cow-Fat and Starch Shaped Pieces Deep Fried in Rancid Engine Oil and finally we're going to replace the current clown with a new honest character called Fat Cow-Eating Pig ™ in an effort to educated kids early on.

I know that “Hi Fat Cow Eating Pig, can I have an Extra-Obese order of Cow-Fat and Starch Shaped Pieces Deep Fried in Rancid Engine Oil, a Minced-Dead-Cow Burger and some Chemical Slop ™ please” is a bit of a mouthful, but if people want a new more open honest society then that’s just the price to be paid…”
