Who else wishes they would do away with all the fast food & put in healthy food?

Question

I despise TACO BELL,BURGER KING,MCDONALD"S.the smell nasty and taste like lard.I'm talking inexpensive heathly,food like rice, noodles,vegetables, steamed fish,sweet potatoes.Look at the obestity rates in america.(especially the south)We could all take an example from Austrilia,Asia & New Zealand. I hate fast food. Your thoughts

Answer 1

yup - agreed. when i went vegetarian it became virtually impossible for me to go somewhere and get a quick lunch on my breaks. Because even the "salads" at places like McDonald's are covered in MEAT. When did it become OK to make a salad 75% meat, 20% dressing and 5% lettuce???

Answer 2

If people we more interested in healthy food, they'd buy it and put those other guys out of business. But Americans seem to like their fast food, so what can you do?

The best thing is to just avoid those places yourself (sounds like you already do) and spend your money someplace else. But you can't control the choices other people make, even if you think they're nuts.

Answer 3

They shouldnt be done away with, but they can be dealt with.

First, admit that theyre more dangerous than cigarette smoking. They cause cancer, obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, etc. Once that fact is established, tax the living hell out of them!

Treat them just like cigs. Allow people to kill themselves, but make them pay the gov't for the priviledge. If we can get nat'l health coverage that would be a great way to pay for it too!

Answer 4

If you don't like it then don't eat it. There are healthy restaurants you can go to if you choose. Why is it you want to take away a person's right to choose what to eat? Why should society be forced to eat the way you want them to? I'm sure the vegans don't want you eating fish so should all meats be banned?

Answer 5

I don't eat it much (I eat organic fruits and vegetables, free range poultry, etc), but I'm glad it's there when I get in the mood for it. So no, I don't wish that.

Answer 6

agreed
