Why do McDonald's adverts only ever feature slim people?

Well they probably want to show people that look good so people that watch their commercials will want to buy their food. See they put money into making commercials so more people will come to their restaraunts. If they put fat people in them, it might suggest that going to McDonalds makes you fat.

My last name is McDonald. Over the years I've been made fun of because of that so many different ways. It hasn't really bothered me. Every time they change their ad slogan people get more chances to make fun. Yesterday I went golfing and the guy checking peoples times asked us if "we were lovin it." I am glad that I wasn't in school yet when they had those really dorky commercials where they "honed their hats aerodynamically and sharpenned their spatulas to perfection."

PS. I do not have a relative named Ronald, but I do have one named Donald.

most commercials dont show fat people. and it seems that a major thing for food places is to talk about their low fat/ low carb stuff to make you think you are eating healthy. although there is the kfc commercial with dale jr which talks about eating what taste good
