Happy Meal... not too Happy


Image result for mcdonalds happy meal 
A claim was made that a man sued McDonalds for around $1.5 million dollars because “after he ate his happy meal, he was still depressed.” This story has resurfaced randomly since July 2017. The claim was first originated by a website that purely published satire and hoaxes. Like many satire websites, the site added a disclaimer for their viewers stating that “all its content is fiction (except those posts under the “serious” category)”. Yet again, we have another case of a satire website being taken seriously. Don’t worry McDonalds, thanks to this story, we now know that happiness is not guaranteed.
