![]() ![]() McDonald's says it has changed the game, with prizes added to its healthier options, while an incentive which gave customers who ordered large meals a better chance of winning has been dropped.Ī McDonald's spokesperson said: "This year's Monopoly campaign sees customers receive prize labels on carrot bags, salads and our Big Flavour Wraps range and we have removed the incentive to 'go large', providing the same number of prize labels and chances to win on a medium meal as you get on a large. His letter states: "It is unacceptable that this campaign aims to manipulate families into ordering junk food more frequently and in bigger portions, in the faint hope of winning a holiday, a car, or a cash prize many would otherwise struggle to afford", the Observer reported. In a Tweet, Mr Watson wrote: "McDonald's 'Monopoly' promotion is a grotesque marketing ploy that encourages people to eat more and more junk food by offering sugar-filled desserts as rewards. Labour deputy leader has called the promotion 'grotesque', and written a letter to the fast food chain begging it to cancel the Monopoly game.
