Washington D.C.- Some people take marketing campaigns very seriously. This is the case of Ruben Caradehuevo, a depressed man that sued McDonalds for about $1.5 million dollars because after he ate his happy meal, he was still depressed.

The incident happened in a McDonald’s establishment in Washington D.C. Caradehuevo bought his happy meal for dinner, after a long day at work. According to him, he was “very depressed and very stressed out”. He claims he wasn’t thinking right, because he had many problems.

“I bought my happy meal, thinking that that would be the perfect solution for my depression”, Caradehuevo relates. He kept going: “I started eating and I was half way done, but my depression was still there”, he states. After finishing his food, the depression hadn’t still gone away, and he got really pissed.

“Even an hour after finishing my food, I still was depressed. So I decided to sue McDonalds.”.

The trial will be the next 15th of July, and the man already has several attorneys to help him win the case.

Hahahaha, I can't believe that there is more than one bloodsucker, I mean attorney, that would take the case. :)

Smells like fake news to me. When you Google his hame, it doesn't show up on any legitimate news sites, and the sites which do have the story all use exactly the same language, like they all just copied it from someplace else without checking it out. If is is true, and the guy has several attorneys, he must be paying them, because attorneys wouldn't take such a ridiculous case on contingency.

It could be, I didn't check it out but some ppl will sue for anything! :) And money-grabbing lawyers would encourage it!

He might have a case, all of this industrial, laboratory engineered "food" is addicting and unsatisfying by design. Everything from the bread to the "meat" has a perfect balance of fat and sugar.

His name Caradehuevo in Spanish means Face Like and Egg. Sounds totally legitimate to me.............not.

When he wins his lawsuit against McDonald's he should go to Disneyland, the self-proclaimed "Happiest Place on Earth". He could make a bundle there, also.

While I'm not entirely convinced this is true, I've no doubt there are tons of lawyers willing to take the case.
