The image is implying that the person who is on the hospital bed is there because of McDonalds and it is even more interesting that there is the famous McDonalds arch in the fading beats of the heart monitor. This image says a lot about the culture in which we live in. This ad about McDonalds says worlds about the health in America. The ad as a story focuses on the harm that fast food “McDonalds” can have on a person. Not that they well become obese or unpleasing but that eating from McDonalds can lead to death or “A Big Mac Attack” (heart attack). The main concept utilized is cause and effect, the America culture has turned into a country that feeds themselves in easy ways will come with a cost. The meaning defines this picture; the image is what adds the dramatic effect to the massage. The widely know McDonalds arch also has an extremely effective impact on the connection of McDonalds and heart attacks. The ad is brilliantly executed allowing the viewer to understand the message of the image without having to spell out the meaning. The ad does not come out and directly make the connection between heart attacks and McDonalds but all the elements of the image say just that. The McDonalds arch on the heart monitor, Big Mac Attack and a man on a hospital bed all point to the true meaning. The elements of the image put together blatantly state the meaning that is truly being put foreword; McDonalds will kill.

I liked how you talked about this ad and related it to the culture we live in. I think it is true, but I don’t think McDonalds is all to blame. I think the obesity can be blamed on themselves too. I love Big Macs, they’re really good. I liked how you talked about McDonald’s arch and how it was in the ad on the monitor. Amazing job!
Mcdonalds is the reason why millions are addicted to fast foor and why obesity is more common. After watching Super Size Me I was shocked with how much fast food can damage your health. Mcdonalds was the reason for his horrible health, but you can't blame it all on fast food because people and their bad eating habits. I like this add because it really projects how unhealthy McDonslds is for you. Eating too much Big Mac's can definitely lead to to become sick and eventually a hospital bed. Goood job!
Hi. I think there are a lot of people choose this picture to write about that. You had related it to the culture; I think it is so interesting. You have talk about the cause and effect, but if you can add like example and illustrate, description, and so on. I think that will make your essay even better, more visual and clear. Also you can pick up on all of important elements, and then write about it. Well written. Good luck.
