Junk Food in the UK

24 05 2007

McDonald’s said Wednesday it was disappointed by Prince Charles’ statement that the hamburger chain should be banned, adding that the heir to the British throne was unfamiliar with its recent efforts to introduce healthier fare.
Earlier this week, Prince Charles suggested during a visit to the Imperial College London Diabetes Centre in Abu Dhabi that McDonald’s, often criticized over its high-fat menu choices, should be banned.
Late last year, he published a cookbook in which he aimed to rebel against what he called the “soulless, mass-produced food that had come to dominate the modern diet.”
