 "Freudian slip? McDonald's terms fast food 'unhealthy', retracts")
Earlier this week, in an ironic move, burger chain McDonald’s told its own employees to stay away from fast food. In a post on their employee website, the global fast food chain warned that fast-food is high in sodium and fat and could lead to obesity.
With the post on its site, McDonald’s had put up a graphic showing a meal with a cheeseburger, fries and drink under the caption “Unhealthy choice.” Next to it is a picture of a sub, a salad and water under the caption “Healthier choice.”

However, two days later, McDonald’s seems to have realised that its internal employee resource website is not just limited to employees. They have shut down the site in fear that their post may lead to them packing their bags altogether.
The latest embarrassment is among a string that’s cropped up since the McResource Line website went live, reports CNN.
A McResource budget-planning guide for its employees was ridiculed in July for being out of touch.
“For starters, it didn’t account for food and gasoline,” CNNMoney reported. “The second line on the sample budget leaves room for income from a second job, which many called an admission by the fast food giant that its workers can’t live on its wages alone.”
McDonald’s confirmed the site had been taken down in a statement posted on its website. “A combination of factors has led us to re-evaluate and we’ve directed the vendor to take down the website. Between links to irrelevant or outdated information, along with outside groups taking elements out of context, this created unwarranted scrutiny and inappropriate commentary. None of this helps our McDonald’s team members.”
