The CPSC is advising people to stop using the glasses immediately and visit www.mcdonalds.com/glasses (The link is dead for me) or call McDonald’s toll-free at (800) 244-6227 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. CT Monday through Friday to file for a full refund. Here’s me refraining from making a lame joke about this is just another way McDonald’s is killing its loyal customer base.
