Answer 1

If you become addicted to the high fat, sugar and salt in fast food, you will come back repeatedly to feed your habit. Its not in the best financial interest of the fast food companies to serve healthier food. What you can do is never eat it again, and when you have kids, don't ever allow them to have it. Changes start small and start with you. The rest of the world is not responsible for your choices, you are. Eat real food.

Answer 3

Fast food companies don't have to try to make food healthier because they are successful anyway. It's up to us as consumers to set a higher standard for ourselves and not eat there. Everytime I see a fast food place I think about that movie Super Size Me and how the guy had liver damage after 2 weeks of eating at McDonalds.

Answer 4

That's a good question and I agree with you 100%. The thing is I have heard that fast food places like McDonalds put stuff in there food so you get addicted to it. Honestly I was like yea whatever but now that I have stopped eating it for awhile now I have no interest in eating it. But before I was like addicted to all that crap. Also people who eat that are not thinking about thier health or wieght they are just eating what tastes good to them. And corporations could care less if they eat there food and then go drop dead as long as thier making the $....sick I know!

Answer 5

Because fast food is A LOT cheaper than organic and healthy food from a grocery store... and some people can't afford healthy food. Some fast food corps. HAVE tried to make healthier food choices, like adding fruits and salads to their menus. But healthy food is expensive, because it doesn't have a lot of added gunk...(filler).

Here's kind of a rule of thumb with food:
*Cheap, Fast, Easy, Good for you*
-choose 3 of the 4... because there's really no food that can fit all 4 categories

Answer 6

People typically eat fast food because of the convenience. I know alot of people that eat fast food because of many reasons. Common reasons are because they do not have any food at their homes and it is a in the moment thing. People get too tired to cook and just want to quickly get something to eat. If people are busy and have alot on their plate they quickly rush over to some fast food place and just get something to eat. People who are on their lunch breaks and didnt get around to pack a lunch for the day. But one of the biggest reason has to be because its sooo goood...

Answer 7

I eat fast food because it is fast. I am always on the go and do not have time to cook. They could make the food healthier but in my opinion I believe that people enjoy eating what is not good for them.

Answer 8

Please learn how to spell really. As it implies. It is FAST food, and everybody is always in a hurry. I hate fast food, but sometimes I don't have a choice. If the baby is cranky I can't take an hour to make a meal. She needs to be fed and put to sleep. That takes precedence.

Answer 9

Same reason people wear name brand clothes ....advertising. There was a study where they showed 3 yr. old kids a mcdonald's symbol and asked what it was. Almost all the kids knew. In the same study kids were shown really important symbols and they didn't know what they were. Sad really.

Answer 10

Mainly people choose fast food for avoid cooking and its taste is so good.
