Due to the controversy over fast food, critics have likened McDonald to Joe Camel, the former mascot of Camel cigarettes . Since August 2003, McDonald has been officially recognized as the "Chief Happiness Officer" of the McDonald's Corporation. Ronald McDonald is a clown who is the primary mascot of the McDonald's fast-food restaurant chain. According to the book Fast Food Nation (2001), 96% of school children in the United States can identify Ronald McDonald, making him the United States' most recognized fast food advertising icon. Only Santa Claus was more commonly recognized. In television commercials, the clown inhabits a fantasy world called McDonaldland, and has adventures with his friends Mr Shoe, Hamburglar, Grimace, Birdie the Early Bird, and The Fry Kids. The McDonald's Corporation has also characterized Ronald McDonald as being able to speak 9,365 different languages including Mandarin, Dutch, Tagalog, and Hindi.
