Fast
Food Nation
By
Eric Schlosser
This is an American book, it has to do with the fast food industry overall,
but particularly in the U.S.A. Fast Food Nation is a non-fiction book about
the growing fast food population and all of its epidemics. He focuses on McDonalds™
in this book, although he does talk about other fast food places. He talks
about the history of McDonalds™ and the affect their progress has had
on many individuals.
One of the big things that I have started to notice is how much people depend
on the Fast Food Industry. Laziness has taken a toll on those who choose to
endorse their product, and we are left with health problems. Obesity, heart
problems, liver problems, cholesterol skyrocketing, headaches, and depression
are only a few things as a result of constant digestion of fast food. It also
doesn't help that most schools provide a non-nutritious meal - that is if
the individual decides to eat at all, many of which decide to skip the school
cafeteria and head over to the nearest McDonalds™ or Burger King ™.
