The "McDonald's" online video game is not an official product of the fast-food corporation; rather, it is a satiric game that parodies the business and agricultural practices of the corporate food industry. You can, for example, tell your in-game advertising team to restructure the food pyramid to focus on fat and protein, or add hormones to the cows' food to increase hamburger production. The cows in the game feed on soybeans, which the feedlot automatically stores in a cistern. If the cistern fills up, the feedlot manager starts jumping up and down; when you click on him, he tells you that the cistern is full. To turn off this alert, empty the cistern.
