In Americans fast-pace society, millions of them consume fast food daily. Although the food may be delicious, it can be very harmful to our bodies, so why do they still eat it? Let’s be honest, we all get caught up in this fast-pace lifestyle, whether are going to work, taking the kids to soccer practice, dance rehearsals, or even the doctor’s office, we are always on the go. It can be really unmanageable, as working Americans to find time to prepare healthy meals for our families. But is grabbing dinner from a fast food restaurant bad for your family? Do you ever think about what those meals do to our bodies over a period of time?
We eat fast food for varying reasons, but it makes it difficult to stay away from them, since they ae everywhere. Beginning in the 1960’s fast food chains and restaurants started popping up everywhere (). Today there are almost 250,000 fast food restaurants in America (Stanford 37). Are you wanting a burger, possibly a pizza, or relatively anything for that matter? Well, you can most likely get one or fifty, at any hour of the day, some can even be delivered. Convenience is everything to us, as Americans, and frankly we like for everything to be easy as possible. After a long ten hour work day, getting the kids to soccer practice, it may be six in the evening before you make it home. Then you still have to get everyone fed, bathed, and ready for bed, that’s not even making time for homework. Obviously, life is a lot easier getting dinner through a drive-thru and most likely cheaper than going to the grocery store and buying healthy ingredients for a family meal. We all like a good deal, so it hard for us to turn down the gimmicks they advertise, especially the five dollar meal deals
