Hmmm, DS1 has been hearing about McDonalds from his classmates ...

[NotQuiteCockney]

Or "Old McDonalds" as he calls it.

Apparently one of his friends went there, but they were making people eat dog food, so he went somewhere else.

We don't eat at McDonalds (or Burger King, or any of those really), because I don't like the food. But we don't make a big deal about it - there are lots of places we don't eat, and it's just one of them.

Am a bit about it all, though.

Very inventive parents, that young fellow has

Once caught dd1 telling dd2 they make poo sandwiches there

dd has been begging me to take her to McDonalds, and I keep saying No "because the food is horrible" (IMO). A few weeks back, she said, "It's OK, Mummy, I won't eat the food, i just want the toy!" I still said no

We basically never watch telly (we use DVDs for the kids, sometimes), so DS1 has never used pester power to go to McDs. (We do go to Nandos sometimes. Or Leon, which is fast food, too, kinda.)

Dd2 asks because her friends go rather than because of the ads though "Chloe says its nice" etc
