McDonald's Corp., the world's largest restaurant chain, will stop giving out Hello Kitty figurines or any other toys with its Happy Meals in San Francisco starting Thursday because of a new city ordinance. Parents will have the option to buy a toy separately for 10 cents when they purchase a Happy Meal or Mighty Kids Meal, spokeswoman Danya Proud said. Restaurant meals in San Francisco can't include a free toy unless they have less than 600 calories, contain fruits and vegetables and have a beverage that isn't excessively sugary or fatty.

Well done the City of San Francisco, helping in the fight against child obesity.
