I really liked the links that were included and the short film. The film reminds us that a plant based diet isn't just about the animals, the environment or even our health any more and has become a food justice and human rights issue.

]]> Comment on McDonald’s Does More Evil (Surprise!) by Matthew Kalland http://www.plantsanimals.org/2012/08/mcdonalds-does-more-evil-surprise/#comment-2720 Matthew Kalland Sat, 18 Aug 2012 19:40:41 +0000 http://www.plantsanimals.org/?p=4312#comment-2720 Well played indeed. The essential misconception that this sort of promotion is playing on is that most consumers are "inumerate" (i.e. illiterate of numbers, not a real word yet). Led to believe they are getting a deal and oblivious to the oppurtunity costs involved such (quantified above as $200 conservatively) and unable or misinformed enough that they don't realize that one burger sold nets McDonald's 100% or more in profits on that burger. So a 1 penny hike to sell a burger that otherwise might not get sold without the promotion is just more money for the corporate giant. Definitely an "evil" attitude of consumer predation.
