Informative Speech On Fast Food

Americans have begun to consume more fast food because the way it's marketed; it's cheap, convenient, and tastes good.

Today I will talk about why you shouldn't eat fast food. First i will talk about the effects fast food has on the body. Second I will talk about the food preparation. Thirdly I will talk about how many animals are slaughtered to keep fast food restaurants open. Fourth I will talk about how much money fast food restaurants make. Lastly ways to make fast food healthy.

Fast food is highly processed, which means higher calories you consume. According to the Obesity Action Coalition 33.8% of the U.S. population is affected by obesity and 19% of children are also affected. Parents are another factor in their children's obesity. They give their children money. And what do kids do with that money? They go to McDonalds or a gas station. I know this, because I was a kid once. Kids can't set limits for themselves so it's the parent's job to do it for them.
I witnessed the cook make a sandwich with a red burger that still had blood on it. I told her that it was still red, then she said it was fine. She continued to make the Whopper. I ended up serving the sandwich. I was worried about my drive-thru time so I didn't have her make another sandwich that was well done. On another occasion the male cook put his wet socks with the bacon so they can dry. This same cook put his whole arm in the creamer when he was pouring it in ice cream machine. They clean the ice cream machine every 2 weeks. There was 10 days left. Do you still want a Whopper or ice cream
