Meanwhile next time you go record -- -- McDonald's bag that's checked out to nearly two dozen hospitals being urged to evict.

The fast food giant from all of their buildings the advocacy group.

Behind a bush says that the company that is McDonald's promotes harm not help.

Nutritionists Rebecca experts -- says McDonald's.

Has no place in hospitals -- -- -- what is so you're happy at McDonald's does he doubt on his little clowning behind him.

Well I mean let's be honest hospitals are notorious for serving poor feared.

And it.

That's third I mean sick people are here and they're serving fast food I think the hospitals absolutely have an obligation.

To recognize that they are supposed to represent wellness.

And do it they can to offer a variety of healthy foods that people not -- a fast food court like at a mall.

But who's to say that this isn't it for people who visit the hospital they can have anything they want camp.

I think a lot of people who visit the hospital -- you cannot people visiting the hospital or getting.

McDonald's -- got a nice comfort thing is now well that is -- comfort food thanks to people argue about it given salads.

Melissa is that -- should be -- And -- right.

Well you know I do think of -- bigger issue is what the hospitals are doing and what they could be doing.

So for exam force was seeing half -- late asked fruits and vegetables.

When their serve and hot -- make sure that your serving.

On non starchy vegetables instead of things like Fries and white rights not limit the number of fast food chains at -- try.

Are at the hospital and work with the fast food chains to serve healthier stop.

I do think hospitals absolutely need to take a look inside and saying hey if we're supposed to be helping people be healthy.

And -- treating sick people -- we need to make sure that our environment as a healthy -- you know.

-- I would not say this a listen to the hospital none of them are familiar disease you would know.

The food I had that was -- it was hard and and and I don't I could have ended in -- -- -- -- it was hardly like dietary rough.

-- and and yet you did you could have all the junk in the world if you were so inclined.

So mcdonalds is there and I did this it would allow other McDonald's.

It but so -- others why stop it in -- why why why pick on them why why not make a broader statement then if you're gonna go after one go after the mall.

I just think you get -- could choose -- -- likely enemy of the debt.

You know it -- I a 100% agree with you on that I think their economic dolls because they're the big -- And they're I was gonna have a target on their backs -- -- on the I don't -- that McDonald's or anything like that Aniston C group.

You know but I would agree with you there right I don't think they should pick on McDonald's and I think what they should do is just look at their whole wellness profile Cleveland clinic does a great.

John my -- right right -- you're and I -- you even unable to walk.

I if there -- McDonald's available I would drag myself to it rather than the food you guys really has not yet adequate.

I can't imagine -- itself to that McDonald's it.

Because otherwise I would die I think I would just but thank you very much productive always good things --
