The purpose of the Day is to attract public attention to the problems of food in modern society. According to the World Health Organization, 80 percent of all diseases are associated with food, and 40 percent of them are directly related to the factor of human eating. On this Day in many countries demonstrations and pickets against fast food chain “McDonald’s” are held. Around 40 years ago, on this day “Mcdonald’s” opened its first restaurant in Illinois, USA. Since then, the company has captured in its chain 70 countries, where 15 thousand of restaurants are opened, cooking unhealthy food and deteriorating the environment. Every year “McDonald’s” spends more than $ 2 billion on advertising by spreading the image of “green” company, which actually is not true.
