Fast food contains tons of fat, calories, cholesterol, and very little of anything healthy. This combination contributes to dramatic weight gains (if eaten excessively like everyday). Weight problems then can cause heart problems, respiratory problems, high blood pressure, and even some cancers. How bad are fast foods? 1/3 of the US population are overweight or obese, while nearly half in Europe are overweight of obese. And the number keeps growing each year.

The genitically modified substances in most of the fast food is dangerous to the health of the public. The cheap oils used, the repetitive usage of oils and substances, the high ingredients of stabilizers, artificial colors, essences all do harm to the health.
Moreover the western fast food industries in india affect the economy of small scale food industries of indian origin.

Fast foods are tasty, delicious & has an attractive look & so also the smell. It drags our senses but it also drags us to illness or slow poison. The food we take is tasty up to the tongue but once it crosses our tongue its a waste carrying all diseases for future. As it affects the whole body like more of soda affects our stomach, same old oil which thickens our arteries & veins and also upsets our stomach & so on. So better take more care if you want to stay hale & healthy.

Most fast food have too much salt, sugar, and fat. They are addicting because of that, and the companies know it. Kids have problems with obesity, and more and more are being diagnosed with high blood pressure because of obesity and the high sodium content in prepared foods. Look at labels in the grocery store and you'll see that lots of prepared foods have heavy sodium and sugar content. Eat fresh foods as much as possible and you will lose the addiction.

Because of its convenience, fast food is popular and commercially successful in most modern societies, but it is often criticized for having the following shortcomings, among others:
* Many popular fast-food menu items are unhealthy, and excessive consumption can lead to obesity.
* Exploitative advertising and marketing are used, especially directed at children (which can have an adverse effect on their eating habits and health).
* It causes environmental damage through excessive packaging and clearing forests for animal rearing.
* It reduces the diversity of local cuisines.
* It survives on a low-wage, low-benefit employment model, promoting exploitative labor practices throughout the food and food service industry
* Its franchising scheme (royalties).
* Its often lower quality versus sit-down restaurants.
The fast-food industry is a popular target for critics, from would-be populists like José Bové (whose destruction of a McDonald's in France made him a folk hero to some) to vegetarian activist groups such as PETA.
In his best-selling 2001 book Fast Food Nation, investigative journalist Eric Schlosser leveled a broad, socio-economic critique against the fast food industry, documenting how fast food rose from small, family-run businesses (like the McDonald brothers' burger joint) into large, multinational corporate juggernauts whose economies of scale radically transformed agriculture, meat processing and labor markets in the late twentieth century. While the innovations of the fast food industry gave Americans more and cheaper dining options, it has come at the price of destroying the environment, economy and small-town communities of rural America while shielding consumers from the real costs of their convenient meal, both in terms of health and the broader impact of large-scale food production and processing on workers, animals and land.
Schlosser's critics[6] respond that fast food companies merely provide something consumers want and that the economies of scale developed by the industry have had a net positive effect on the American and global economy. Defenders of fast food companies point out that they provide entry-level jobs to people with few skills who might otherwise be unemployed and that individual consumers should be responsible for their eating choices, not business.

It allows them to get back to work faster. If it were slow food, then people wouldn't be able to go to a drive through, since gas prices are so high.
