    US doctors give McDonalds to children then send them back to school?

    And these people make fun of old ads of physicians promoting cigarettes?

    When I came back to school, I’d keep filling that McDonald’s cup at the water fountain to get maximum mileage out of it. Keep flexing that bad boy until the bottom soaked out.

      I believe op is German. I don’t see how that clarifies the joke in any manner.

      I think they mean that they got treated to happy meals after a doctor’s visit and teased their fellow schoolchildren with that fact?

        Growing up in Canada, McDonald’s was provided to kids in hospital through the Ronald McDonald House Charities! I have fond memories of getting bloodwork done and being treated to McDonald’s because my parents never took us there…
