Big Mac Attack

Or
Greased


Or
I can see the deadly hamburger has done its evil work.*

Or
McDeath

Or
You know why Americans call it fast food...because it speeds them on the way to the grave.*
James Cantalupo, CEO of McDonalds, died of a "sudden and unexpected heart attack," creating a bit of a catch-22 for the fast food giant: do we acknowledge that our products have a body count greater than Jason Voorhees, or do we claim that even our own executives don’t eat the petroleum byproducts we call food? Ironically, Cantalupo had been credited with bolstering McDonalds' profits, due in part to the inclusion of a healthier menu. Share prices dropped by more than a dollar after Cantalupo's death was announced, as investors fears McDonalds' salad days were behind them.

* Mad props to anyone who recognizes this as a quote from the most underrated action film of 1985: Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins
