The obesity lawsuit against Mcdonalds was benefical because it was a accelerator in improving laws that govern the fast food industry - Case Study ExampleThe mooring was filed in the New York Court, in the year 2005, which stated, inter alia, that as a result of prolonged and baleful consumption of McDonalds food products, at the Bronx outlet of the McDonalds, two teenagers, by names of Ashley Pelman and Jazlyn Bradley contracted severe obesity, resulting a series of distress causing health problems.Their contention was that MacDonalds has misled them to believe that their products were entirely safe for consumption. (Colb 2005). Their original charge was refused on 22/1/2003, by the US District Justice Robert Sweet, citing lack of specific reasons in substantiation of their claims. However, he asked them to modify the application, citing that consumption of McDonalds products could produce health hazards that could not be know to the consumers during the ordinary course of using their products.However, the teenagers had cited that McDonalds had failed to provide adequate knowledge about the composition of its various(a) food products, and have assured consumers about the total safety of their products by means of false propaganda, and brilliantly executed, yet untrue advertisements. Thus, they had succeeded in luring unsalted people into having food products, which could prove detrimental to the health of the young consumers, as was rightly proved in the cases of the two teenagers, Ashley and Jazlyn. Although the defendants were acquitted of the charges at the subsequent hearings, fundamentally, on the understanding that the plaintiffs could not conclusively prove, that the health hazards arouse due only to consumption of McDonald products.
