The history of fast food all starts with a lonely old laundry joint. Billy igram and Walter Anderson found this laundry joint and knew exactly what to do with it, make it into a burger joint. They opened up in 1921 and almost immediately business was booming. They sold burgers at just 5ยข a burger. Their business was going so well people wanted them sold by the sack, and white castle did as they were told. Now those were some good sanitary and high quality burgers, but if you look at mcdonalds history of stuff that's been banned from the menu is crazy, such as the mc onion nuggets where they tried making onion ring nuggets, the mclobster which just came out tasting like barf, and then the mc breakfast steak sandwich, like who eats a whole steak for breakfast. All these show how horrible fast food has become over time.

After you try fast food you get a feeling of taste in your mouth that can be good or not, but for some reason your body starts to crave that taste so much. Then some people in the USA started to have cravings so bad that they just kept eating and eating and gaining weight. Once you start to gain the weight you start getting mad and angry and want it more. Well Morgan spurlock took this to the test. He ate the super size meal (a Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese, Super Size French fries, and a 42-ounce Coca-Cola) 3 times a day for a month and the side effects are crazy. Morgan spurlock gained 24.5 lbs, a 16% body fat increase, he experienced mood swing, sexual dysfunction, and a fat accumulation in his liver. All of this is taken to the extreme but some people do eat like this every day. If you compare a human now and a human back 100 years ago from america you can see that everyone is getting taller and the life expectancy is going up but you can also see everyone is fatter and the suicide rate is up and the depression rate is up. This can be caused by fast food because eating bad makes you feel bad.

It's not just humans getting hurt by this, it's also the trees, and animals, and our earth in general. Some people say that the packaging will biodegrade and then that they will just go away but that's not true. There were PFAS (otherwise known as forever chemicals) found inside of the packaging and wrapping. These chemicals will make it so that it will never go away and biodegrade. Another thing that is really hurting our earth is that most fast food places don't use green energy. To think about how many there are and only a few use green energy is just horrible and is hurting our earth so much. But that's not it because have you ever put thought into the land they use to put their fast food on, yeah they cut down a lot of trees to do that and sometimes they don't even use it anymore. These are all great reasons why our planet should be saved.

The biggest thing you can do to stop fast food chains is to stop eating there and just cut it off in general. This will stop you from gaining extra weight that isn't needed and you give them less money which can lead to them shutting down for the lack of profit. You can also try to eat food without chemicals that is fresh and real instead of being rubbery and fake and full of chemicals. We can organise a rally for using clean energy at your local fast food restaurant and then you can post it on social media and more people will do it. I know it's another drop in the bucket but if you get enough drops the bucket will spill. And you can help us make the bucket spill.]]> 2023-04-21 13:57:49 UTC https://padlet.com/pw51160/g2djgwkygyv8due4/wish/2563276070 Citations pw51160 https://padlet.com/pw51160/g2djgwkygyv8due4/wish/2563282978 Works Cited
