Live Greenwashing about Healthy Food: McDonald’s Lettuce Growing Billboard

Posted in:

Posted in Business, Fun / Offbeat

A 2007 McDonald’s billboard near Chicago featured growing lettuce plants stating, “Fresh salads”.  Considering the short life span of such a billboard, McDonald’s reputation for rainforest destruction, and the fact their salads are not organic, fresh (they are prepackaged), or healthy, I can’t embrace this campaign. Still, using plants for advertising is definitely a unique idea.  You can watch the billboard grow in this video.
