Fast food

This YouTube is about a test of Mc Donald food. After I saw this I don’t want have fries at Mc Donald. I’ve seen full documentary of super size me. I was really shocked. But the problem is that although people do know how bad fast food is they keep having that food, especially for children. Especially in America obesity is really serious problem. Today in Korea, as we have accepted American cultures, we’ve had fast food a lot and it causes many kids to be overweight. But I think it’s not only Mc Donald’s fault because people already know about fast food. I think it is their choice.In Australia, it is considering to ban fast food advertise. Fast food ads usually target children who can’t control by themselves. Sometimes, children just want to have fast food because they can get a toy. I think Banning fast food ads is good idea because it’s true that kids and even adult whenever they see some food on Tv then more want to eat that. When we walk on the street we can find a lot of Mc Donald and Burger King ect. Those things are enough temptation for people.

oh I have seen the movie that related to this youtube, it's called "supersize me" the man ate McDonald for a month for 3 meals a day and every time the staff asked him if he wants to supersize he had to say "yes" and eat all of it. It was crazy of him to kill himself after one week the doctor told him to stop doing it because the chloresterol and fat level was higher and could effect his kidney. It was a crazy show but good for us to watch and learn how fast food could kill people little by little.

I know McDonalds is regarded as the arch enemy when it comes to fast food but consider that a burger contains carbo in the bun, lettuce and tomato and red meat - is it really that fattening and unhealthy? Compare a burger with crisps. The ad-ons r the culprits - fries and (unlimited!) fizzy drinks.

Yeah i've seen that movie as well.
After i saw the movie i didn't feel like haveing McDonald things.

i understand what Christel said about tomato and lettuce things but i heard that McDonald's bread contain a lot of suger which is really bad. i think that's because people think that burger is not good.

before we judge Mcdonalds (the restaurant) we should take alook at our consumption of fast food, if we ate in a healthy balanced way, we would not experience many of the negative results. but again, why would anyone eat mcdonalds when their patties tase more like plastic than actual meat!!

Yeah i know that we should consider our diet rather than just blaming Mc Donald. But you know that people usually more like blaming others than themselves although they are the one who has a responsibility.

obesity is a big problem to some of the people, but I think it indicates that people might need to be self-controlled and try to love themselves. If you love yourself you will learn how to take care yourself. right?
