Mcdonalds and Proffesor Erin-Carr Jordan

Have you ever been hungry and out on the highway or in a different city where you don’t know much places to eat? And you look up and you see two big yellow arcs representing McDonald’s. McDonald’s is a great place to grab a bite to eat for a cheap price. McDonald’s serves 58 million people a day to be more precise they serve 671 customers per second every day. They serve the needs of children and adults, McDonald’s goes as far as having a play scape for the children. This may sound like a great benefit to keep the children occupied for a while. But have you ever questioned the cleanliness of the area where you precious children play? I’m sure you probably said to yourself this McDonald’s needs to clean the plays cape but never took the initiative to test what the kind of things constantly lure in the area.

However one woman recently did Erin Carr-Jordan, a university professor but most importantly a mom to young children. She tested the play scape by swabbing down the area and the things she found were alarming. For example she found, meningitis, gastrointestinal disease and nausea. As alarming as this find is you would think that McDonald’s would take action in order to fix these problems. Instead McDonald’s in her area informed her that she would not be allowed back into the store. Recently the mother took video of the plays cape which went viral and she then appeared on the Anderson show.  Gaining more and more publicity, other mothers have been on her side to take action on this issue. Erin has also found these same types of bacteria in other plays capes like Chuckee Cheese, and Burger king.

In conclusion we all need to look out for our health and protect ourselves from these diseases. Erin has started to take action to form a policy for these restaurant’s to fix these issues. She needs more support in order to make this happen. So be ware and stay safe in these areas and if you see anything suspicious and alarming don’t be afraid to speak up about as Erin did.
