This poster, found in a local Micky D's, is actually a very sneakily done bit of graphic design suggestion. That happy meal is nestled in with a bunch of apples, which are very healthy for you, and...well gosh darn it if the box isn't red just like an apple. Even though, in your conscious mind, you know a standard happy meal isn't anywhere near the neighborhood of healthy, the color similarity in the box and the apples makes that happy meal look very desirable. Yes, this poster is advertising for "healthier" alternatives to the happy meal, but I think we all know what this poster is really trying to push. Sneaky, Mr. McDonald...verrrrrrrry sneaky.
