In a yahoo article about red snappers in the Gulf of Mexico having black bands and sores on their bodies due to the oil spill or the agents used to clean up the waters, a commenter joked that McDonalds was now going to give free/cheap deals on a McFish sandwich to get rid of the diseased fish.
So when I started seeing the free deals on those Burger King coupons about burgers, my mind started twitching about why they would do such a thing (besides to get more customers). It didnt help that I heard on the NPR news that there was a case of a dairy cow with mad cow disease but that it was 'proven' as an isolated case on the April of this year. It also didnt help that I saw more restaurants also doing the buy one burger get another free deals (trying not to drop behind Burger King, eh). Yes, there are other free deals as well, and maybe the chances of actually contracting the disease is pretty low, but I dont love burgers enough to risk it.
