SoCal McDonald's offering free oatmeal to students

August 16, 2012

To mark the new school year, participating Southern California McDonald's restaurants will offer one free full-size Fruit & Maple Oatmeal to students in kindergarten through eighth grade from 6 to 9 a.m., Sept. 4 while supplies last.

To take advantage of the one-day offer, students are required to be accompanied by an adult when visiting a participating McDonald's restaurant in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino and Ventura counties.

The Fruit & Maple Oatmeal is made with 100-percent natural whole grain oats and topped with about a half cup of fruit, including raisins, cranberries and red and green apples.

"McDonald's is committed to the well-being of children and to offering our customers the best quality, on-the-go food choices to meet their every day nutritional needs," said Michael Mangione, Jr., McDonald's owner/operator and president of the McDonald's Operators' Association of Southern California (MOASC). "This back-to-school season we are excited to offer a hearty breakfast choice to children and help propel their academic success this new school year."

MOASC is composed of more than 600 franchised and company-owned McDonald's restaurants in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino and Ventura counties.
