McDonald's, Burger King, Taco Bell, KFC, Carl's Jr.... the list goes on and on. The evidence for the infiltration of fast food into the typical American citizen's life is sound, and it shows that something needs to be done about it. Fast food is extremely unhealthy for any human, which contributes to the problem of the ever-growing fast food industry, both in the United States as well as around the world. Investigative journalist Eric Schlosser takes an in-depth look at the industry in his 2001 book Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the American Meal. It will be interesting to see the inside workings of the fast food industry that we've all been warned about but have never actually totally understood. In some ways, this book continues with facts and statistics for society, like Freakonomics, but from a fast food perspective. I look forward to reading this book fully, due to its significant relationship with our lives today.
