Last year, McDonald’s added to its 2013 initiative with Healthier Generation, calling the updated plan a “Offering more balanced mealsLeveraging innovative marketing to help increase purchase of items that contain recommended food groups “Our 2018 commitment built on our original set of commitments. We had a lot of learnings by then and made a lot of progress and we wanted to take that to the next level and up the ante,” Braun said. “The biggest difference is our new set of commitments includes a prescribed set of nutritional and ingredient parameters, which is the first time we’ve put that out globally. Our hope is that we continue to push forward and be better.

Its QSR burger competitors offer similar alternatives as well, while Burger King even goes so far as to offer a 300-calorie peanut butter and jelly sandwich on the kids’ menu and Wendy’s lists a kids’ chicken wrap on its menu.“With our scale, we are a leader in this space and a lot of people watch us closely,” she said. “I want customers to look at us as an ally.
