Thesis statement:The conveniences of fast food restaurants are a great help to many people on the go, but the consequences of having fast food as a lifestyle can first cause obesity, secondly fast food is more expensive, and lastly it takes away the unity of the family at the table.
Obesity from fast food is on the brink of becoming an epidemic. The conveniences of fast food restaurants are a great help to many people on the go, but the consequences of having fast food as a lifestyle can first cause obesity, secondly fast food is more expensive, and lastly it takes away the unity of the family at the table. While fast food is great sometimes it can also be harmful if it is used as part of a daily or weekly routine. Healthiness can not be bought in the freezer section at the grocery store or in a local fast food joint, but it can be earned by cooking at home. With fast food around the corner of every neighborhood it's becoming a real problem.
One way for this nation to cope with the issue of obesity is to get people outside. ~ George W. Bush
It's a startling fact that fast food leads many people to obesity. The average restaurant meal has as much as 60% more calories than a homemade meal. Take for example in 2007, a man ate at his favorite fast food restaurant everyday for a month and at the end of the month his weight and blood pressure were off the charts for anybody his age. So the next time you want that juicy hamburger think about making it at home before you resort to eating out.
When I'm home, I spend Sunday with my husband. If we're not cooking, we travel around in our camper, stop at fast-food restaurants, and picnic. We love that stuff that will harden your arteries in a hurry. ~ Dolly Parton
