McDonald's ends Super Sizing
Here, only the name changes
Largest fries cut by ounce in U.S.
DANA FLAVELLE
BUSINESS REPORTER
McDonald's Corp.'s Super Size servings, which included a seven-ounce package of French fries and 42-ounce soft drinks, have been the target of critics who blame fast-food companies for soaring obesity rates.
The move will have little impact in Canada where Super Size servings were never that large, a company spokesperson said later. McDonald's Canada has dropped the name Super Size from all its menus and renamed those portions "large," Ron Christianson said.
Canada always had smaller portions than the U.S. restaurants because of market research and partly because of business considerations, Christianson said. Canada is a smaller market and would be more expensive to serve with so many options, he said

It's disterbing that no one seems to be able to take responcibility for themselves anymore. This is true over the whole of American culture.
It is not a stem of the consumer nation, but rather of the "Immediate Need" situation.
Parents couldn't possibly face the fact that fat kids are their fault.
I will say it again, barring serious health conditions, which are much rarer than people think, FAT KIDS ARE THE PARENTS FAULT.
I find child obesity to be child abuse. It is exposing their kids to health problems, social abuse, low self esteem, and a fight to control their body for the rest of their lives.
It's abuse flat out.
