Talking about fast food - should we do online chat with MacDonalds' new chap?

As most of you know Mac D's are on our banned advertiser's list, so we don't currently take any banners/ ads/ competition /sponsorship from them.

They've recently approached us to see if we would do a live online chat with their new head of food development, Mike Faers, who has apparently worked previously at Le Gavroche restaurant in London and also M&S and Sainsburys.

We're sure Mumsnetters could think of quite a few things they'd like to ask McDonald's, and we think it would be quite interesting to hear what they have to say, not just in terms of happy meals/menus but in terms of the whole MacDonald's brand/global strategy etc., but wanted to check with you all before confirming it, that you'd be happy for this to go ahead.

As always it would be live, with the chance to ask questions in advance, and no holds barred. We've warned him that you're a feisty bunch but he's still keen.

So what say you - shall we give Mike a go?

Well it seems pretty darn well split down the middle doesn't it?

We can see it from both ways really. Yes I guess they are trying to benefit from the association. Yes we could ask them some searching questions.

To be honest we thought it would be interesting (discussion forum and all that) and we could definitely stipulate that they didn't use any quotes etc.

But as said we can see both arguments.

For gawd sake someone make a decision will ya [sigh]
