Mcdonalds_golden_arches

Is there anyone in America (the world?  Mars??) who doesn’t know what these are attached to?  I can’t imagine.  The Golden Arches are a slice of Americana (albeit a deep-fried, salty, heart-attack-waiting slice…).

"Idol" is defined as an object worshiped or an object of extreme devotion.  Dieting in our country has become a $65 BILLION industry; with over 60% of Americans suffering from obesity or overweight, it’s clear food is worshiped and we’re devoted to our appetites.  I guess when Ray Kroc said, "We take the hamburger business more seriously than anyone else" he meant it.  Doubtful he could’ve anticipated the repercussions….
