Fast food or Traditional food?

It’s Ok to eat fast food occasionally but fast food is high in calories. So, if you often eat a
hamburger and chips you can easily become obese. You must eat homemade food because it is
healthier.
Everybody knows that fast food is cheap and quick. However fast food is not as tasty as
homemade food. Young people prefer to eat pizzas, hamburgers and French fries but they
should eat soup instead. Fast food companies spend lots of money to make people believe that
fast food is cool. The average American eats three hamburgers with French fries a week. Is it
surprising that 14% of American teenagers are obese? Health care is devoted to create new
eating habits so that we can have a healthier generation.
Obesity can lead to other diseases such as diabetes and heart strokes. This is why America is
now starting to fight back against the fast food companies. They are stopping serving fast food
in school cafeterias and restaurants serving traditional food are opening now.
