Large fast food chains are rapidly adapting to consumer trends and pressure from society, for instance in fighting obesity and excessive salt usage.

McDonalds started giving sliced apples with Happy Meals and reduced the size of their French fry portion, thereby lowering the menu’s calorie content by 20 percent. McDonald’s units in San Francisco reacted to the banning of free toys with high-calorie children’s meals by selling toy figures for USD 2.18 to collectors and for 10 cents with Happy Meals.
