Mcdonald's Dead.



I know McDonald's gets alot of flack but I just can't stand their packaging. It's not even a matter of having active healthy people on their packaging that kills me--cause you know they're not eating one bit of that gunk--it's the fact that the colours are depressing. The rendering of the bodies are also (in most cases) stripes and not dots. The feeling I get from this package design is that McDonald's is alive, full of energy and this "athlete" is dying. Even their expression is deceitful, it might be because they sold their soul to the red guy with yellow horns. I'm not saying I don't get McDonald's cravings--I seem to have suppressed them quite well--but ultimately I'm saying that when I see that package with a few grease marks, I lose my appetite.
