New York City recently limited trans fats in many restaurants. I think this is pushing us down a dangerous path- the best solution is to let the market decide, and hey, it's working so far!

1. People are becoming more health conscious (or younger people that were better educated on the affects of poor eating are now at the age where fast food is sometimes necessary, due to working hours)
2. By offering these foods, they are attracting people who may have avoided the fast food chains altogether. There isn't a crappy daily broadsheet that hasn't had the "How to eat healthy at fast food chains" article, and not a local news channel that hasn't had a "best and worst fast food choices" story when news is slow.
And I wouldn't go so far as to call it a "feeble attempt," as they have been making drastic changes to their menus and their cooking methods (eliminating trans fats), marketing campaigns, product development, and information dissemination methods. They are spending a lot of cash to make this happen.
I'm sure, if one wants to be cynical, it is easy to say, "They wouldn't do it if there weren't public pressure / raised government eyebrows," but they are, after all, a business, and if they didn't think it was an ultimately profitable move (even profitable in a public image manner), they wouldn't do it.

M$But why spend $5 for a sad, soggy salad at McDonalds, when you can go to a real restaurant and go to the salad bar to make your own -- In fact, you could even go to the grocery store and get the ingredients to make a lot of fantastic healthy salads for $10.
The same holds for other healthy food selections, especially fruit -- the markup and the difference in quality at fast food restaurants just isn't going to be worthwhile. And, it is probably not the best thing to be going to a fast food restaurant to eat healthy -- the smell of beef frying in grease can be enough to put an end to some diets ....

M$They are industrials profit centers, not restaurants.
The only way they can save money on their variable cost, is with cheap fake food, because they always need employees to serve customers...they are already to the minimum...because its not FAST food
But def. FakeFood
:p

They're playing a dirty game, sopping off to give the illusion of concern. The money made in fast food is made on high sodium, low quality junk, and there's no other reason to pretend otherwise.

I hate them. The sandwiches and the places serving them. They tend to be so false. Like Taco Bell's salad on the health food menu one year ago that is still there today, was the highest calorie and most fattening thing on their menu. It was ridiculous.

M$take a salad: all it is is lettuce, tomato, onion, carrots etc.. that's going to be THE SAME if you make it at home, fast food or restaurant. the difference comes in the DRESSING and the meat choices. the dressing that mcdonalds most likely uses is the same or similar to the one you buy at a grocery store.
the only place to eat healthy now is: whole foods food or one's you make yourself (literally - from scratch).

It is pretty much a marketing thing--I think these corporations are well-aware that the fattiest and most calore-stuffed foods are the most popular, and just getting people in there to look at them is already making them more money.
And then you have foods that are "healthy" in name alone. Like calling something a salad even though it's slathered in dressing and has chunks of chicken and bacon in it. It gives a psychological 'high' for eating healthy if you eat a "salad", even though it only hangs onto the name by a thread because there are a few green things in there somewhere.

Below, you said the same I did. They have healthier choices. I didn't say anything was nutritionist approved healthy - just healthIER. I guess I'm confused on what you were refuting.
Healthy is a really tricky word. McDonalds can sell anything they want, because you don't have to buy it.
