I doubt they ever even take a look at the food they sell. The main problem isnt fast food itself its the abundance and convenience of it. Fast food is
EVERYWHERE. Its extremely hard in this day and age to find a decent market that sells natural foods that are not at break neck prices.
Again, I must agree. There is nothing wrong with treating yourself to an oversized combo-meal with a shake in place of a Coke even, but it is the
everday diets of Americans that is the concern.
My tip stick with small local farms/markets to buy your foods itll cost more but the extra cost is worth while if you value your health
When you consider that one in eight Americans live below the poverty line, and even a full half of Americans could be considered poor, then this
really is not a viable option for most. Especially too when you consider that even those who are not poor, are working so much that they really don't
have the time to eat healthy, and to lead a healthy lifestyle. And their children suffer as well, with both parents working 50 hours a week each, or
the single parent who is working 70-80 hours a week.
Then you must also consider what I said earlier as well. That even foods that are thought to be good for you, are now being stripped of nutrients. The
humble potato, the salvation of the Irish, has lost something like 70% of its nutritional value in the past few decades. This is not by accident. This
is Codex at work.
