Hungry Motorists Drive by–Not Through–Golden Arches

Members of the lunch crowd at a McDonald’s in Providence, Rhode Island, probably weren’t expecting to be greeted by a giant “chicken” bearing “Unhappy Meals” when they headed out on their lunch breaks. But hardly anyone could resist the lure of our chicken, and word is that almost every driver stopped to talk with the big bird and his posse. Many people even went elsewhere for lunch once they learned how countless chickens are forced to suffer painful broken bones, bruises, and scalding—while they’re still alive—at slaughterhouses run by McDonald’s suppliers.

 

None of this chicken’s relatives were harmed in the making of our “Unhappy Meals.”

It’s hard to tell by her shocked face if she’s opening one of our “Unhappy Meals” or a far more gruesome McNugget box.

I’m not sure what a “Brownie Meit” is, but I’m sticking with Allison’s Gourmet’s vegan Brownie of the Month, regardless.
