If you’ve bought one of the millions of promotional Shrek Forever After glasses at McDonald’s recently then you need to stop using it and return it to the fast food chain immediately.
I think McDonald’s generally gets an overly unfair press. It’s a business like any other, and they only sell what people want to eat. Sure, it’s bad for you, but no one is standing there pointing a gun at your head insisting you chomp on a Big Mac.
However, there’s no excuse this time, as they’ve been caught selling painted glasses which contain cadmium, a known toxic substance which is no longer used for anything which comes into contact with humans.
12 million of these glasses were produced, and 7 million of those have already been sold to customers at $2-a-pop. And no, they weren’t made in China, but the good ol’ U.S. of A.
