1. McDonald's food is absolutely revolting. I am always astounded at the hogs at the trough eating there. Pure garbage.

2. Due to the fact that I have children that love to play in the McDonalds play area. I know that the Happy meal toys are not little Michael Vick games. I am buying what Mcdonalds has to say. It must be a slow day in the newsroom.

3. It makes you wonder what else is just sitting around 4 yrs old? Mmmmm.

4. Yeah I'm buying what Mcdonalds is selling... they have Vince Carter on the happy meal box too, that guy hasn't been relevant in... surprise, 4-5 years now.

And yeah, McDonalds food sucks, I can't eat there any more, the foods too greasy and I always get the McStomache afterwords.

I'll have the occasional McChicken, however... ;)

5. Guess Micky Dee's didnt want to lay out the money to change the boxes and instead decide to reuse their over stock of "happy meal" boxes from 4 YEARS ago. Guess they are still hurting over that monoply scam/scandle where management and friends was winning all the big money!!

6. Calling this story pointless garbage might be the ultimate pun as it actually revolves around a TMZ staffer's lunchtime trash. Why would something as retarded as this make the site? Who cares? And, furthermore, why am I even commenting on this? Didn't something happen today with the stock market? A horrifying plunge, perhaps? Aren't there a grey haired man and a wobbly eared guy battling it out for the white house? Back to more important matters. I'll check back tomorrow to see if the TMZ office janitor's metamucil kicked in on time.

8. Hey Outlaw Star, you might want to check your facts. It wasn't management and family winning the prizes in the contest scam. It was employees and family of the company that printed the packaging.

I'm buying what they're saying. You can't expect the mother corporation to check every single store to make sure they aren't using old stock. I'm sure they've now discussed it with the restaurant in question though.

9. MP-
You say this story is useless. But you "waste" more words than anyone else to comment? STFU!!

11. Hahahaha what a great story! I've often noticed that places like McCrap's use cups and other packaging that can easily be 6,7,8,9+ years old .. based on the dates printed on the packaging itself. I guess this time it happened to be "time-sensitive" material. Either that or some kid just ate a dog-meat hamburger.

12. If this is the best thing that you all could find to report on, you definitely need new jobs. Mike Vick fought some dogs and we have a president that has lead our troops to many deaths. If you saw George Bush on a McDonald's Happy Meal Box would that make you feel better. It's a box, not french fries made by Mike Vick or a hamburger with his signature ingredients. You all need to get a life and report on the real issues that are against Americans today. I'm pretty sure that moose will go extinct before dogs, so why don't you report about Sarah Palin next.

14. Man that dude looks mean, I'd rather have a hungry pitt bull run up behind me than him anyday.

15. Hey McDonalds, how about throwing away your trash and taking Vick with you. His 15 minutes of fame lasted way too long. Vick is a slimeball.
