Do you think these people have a case against McDonalds' happy meal toys?

I honestly can’t decide.

A group is suing McDonalds for using happy meal toys as an advertising kick because it makes kids want to eat at McDonalds but McDonalds is terrible for you.

Heart disease and obesity are legitimate health problems and are being brought more into the limelight. But when are we overstepping our regulations?

Is this the same degree of severity as with cigarettes? (Not allowed to advertise to children with these kinds of things)
