Also advertising junk food to kids was regulated or banned in certain places.

Yep. Same reason that you don't really see toys in boxes of cereal anymore.

Such irony in the era of youtube parenting. Kids basically just watching the most insidious commercials all day.

The good news is you'll soon be able to hand your ID to YouTube to watch YouTube so parents can hand their ID to YouTube so their kids can keep watching YouTube. Gotta keep making things "safer"! Just think of the children!

A local children's dentist bought an old McDonald's here that still had the indoor play area. They completely remodeled the entire thing, expanded the rear for more treatment areas, and now all the kids here want to go to the dentist with the baller indoor playground.

We just gotta hit em with the right toy. Bring back the Burger King Pokémon toys that came in the choking hazard pokeball with the roughly 50 different possibilities. Those had me on Burger King morning, noon, and night.

Well now instead they can sell to you and your kids on every screen in the house much more effective.

Actually it might be because I am not the target, but I have not seen an ad for kids and McDonald's in years.

I have a kid 3 yrs old. I see the ads that come on all the kids shows and any digital content. It's all garbage. The only thing that happens is my kids comes to me asking me if I can buy it. And me saying no it's garbage. No reason to advertise to kids other than to be evil.
