Fast food is not bad food but it is not healthy food, because all foods can fit into a healthy meal plan. And, it is true that fast food is high in fat calories, cholesterol, and sodium and eating fast food once a while is not going to cause health problems for who eat it but people who eat fast food become addicted and they want to eat more. Fast food can lead to health problems such as high blood pressure, heart disease, and obesity.
       One of the great pioneers of the fast food industry was a man named Carl Karcher. He was a farm boy and he grew up in Ohio. Then, Carl at the age 24 moved to Anaheim, California, to work at his uncle’s factory. In 1939, Carl wanted to work on his own business purchased a hot dog cart and began his own business of selling hot dogs on street to customers as they drove up in their cars. Because this was during the time which vehicles were becoming so popular people did not want to get out of their cars to eat and Carl’s business flourished. Within five months after Carl bought his first cart, he was able to buy the second cart. Before long, he was opening a drive-in restaurant called Carl’s Drive-In Barbeque.

The Comparison Between the Web and the Book


      I think the both resources which I have are good. At first I'm going to talk about my first source which is the website. It is easier for me to find information in the website because you just need to type the topic and you find what you want in a short time. Also, that web which I found has a lot of good information. On the other hand my second source which is the book. The book has more information than the website and it has more explanation for the issues but it is more difficult the information that you need. Also, you can trust the information in the book more than in the website because anyone can publish a website and write what he or she wants.

Summary for Fast Food Nation


Over the last three decades fast food became more popular, and; in these days it is easy to find fast food restaurant you can find them everywhere, at stadiums, gas stations, airports, zoos ect. In 1970, Americans spent about $ 6 billion on fast food and in 2000, they spent more than $ 110 billion. If we see how much people in America spend on fast food and compare it with other things such as higher education, personal computers or new cars, we will notice that people in America spend more money on fast food. This is the summary for a small part of the book, it is a value book it has a lot of good information.
