Why is fast food not the same as restaurant food in terms of health?
For those that don’t eat fast food because it’s unhealthy, do you eat at restaurants? If so, how is that food different from fast food? I’m not saying it isn’t, I just want to know.
If there is any food from a restaurant that would be just as bad as fast food, what factor decides if its too unhealthy to eat? (with fast food being the standard as too unhealthy to eat)
Also, what makes food cooked at home healthier than fast food? What factors decide whether the food cooked at home is relatively healthy or unhealthy?
Food Fight
An abridged history of American-centric warfare, from WWII to present day, told through the foods of the countries in conflict. For a breakdown of the actual battles portrayed in the film, visit: www.touristpictures.com For the official cheat sheet (breakdown of the foodstuffs), visit: www.touristpictures.com Now, to answer some FAQs… – The food in this film was consumed either by myself or my dog after shooting. None of the cast went to waste. – The software used was photoshop and after effects. – The film took me 3 months to do. – Although it seems like stop motion, most of it was stop motion created within After effects, using keyframe animation. I am basically moving the food around within the the program, frame by frame, which is the same as traditional stop motion, only it’s digital.

I am reading Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser. I need to write an essay on a specific part of the fast food industry back then, and compare it to present day.
I just need a few ideas on what you think is most interesting to look into in the fast food industry.

Can we tell the difference between junk food and fast food?
I am a Unitarian, and the food of my religion appear to be junk foods because the spiritual qualities are also religious. Even if they are nutritious, is it a good idea to ration them, or eat them in small quantities, because of their halluciogenic properties? I know that junk foods are unhealthy, and I do not eat such foods, but a Big Mac can be mistaken for a garage burger of sorts. Please help me draw the line such as, “One makes you fat, the other makes you high. One has cholesterol, the other has LSD” and so on. Given the obesity epidemic, I do not wish for an underground movement to replace all fast food chains if fast food was outlawed, especially to ensure the health of our fellow citizens. Please help, for I am also a professional chef, and I pray to Gaia for someone with a heart to answer with the best of his abiilities. May we be blessed with the bounties of Gaia as long as we live.
Fast Foods Increasing Child Obesity
It is difficult to calculate exact statistics behind childhood obesity as it relates to the consumption of fast food. What can be confirmed, however, is that changing trends in the way we eat have indeed contributed to the general obesity epidemic, particularly in children and young adults. In a recent study in the United States, it was found that children absorb more calories and less nutrition on those days that they consume fast food.
In the study, the dietary intake from over 6,000 children and young adults between the ages of four and nineteen was analyzed. The ones who ate fast food absorbed more calories total, as well as more calories per gram, more carbohydrates, more saturated and total fat, more sugar, and less fiber, fruit, milk, and non-starchy vegetables. It was also shown in the study how the children who ate fast food on one day only showed nutrient downfalls on that day. But on the other, non fast food day, they did not show these downfalls.
It is estimated that since the 1970s, young people’s consumption of fast food is five times greater today. By the mid-1990s, ten percent of all daily meals involved fast food consumption. Also, since the 1970s, there are more fast food restaurants than ever – the number is estimated to be at well over 250,000 establishments in the United States alone.
Why is this such a concern? Because childhood obesity is a bigger problem than ever before. The fact that fast food contains next to no fruits or vegetables is a real problem, in that it contributes to such diseases as diabetes and cardiovascular disorders. Consuming fruits and non-starchy vegetables can protect against weight gain, in that they contain a lot of fiber and contain low energy density.
In the mid-90s, it was recorded that young men and women only consumed 12-30% of the recommended intakes of dairy on a daily basis, and only 14-18% of the recommended intake for fruit.
The amount of carbonated soft drinks that are consumed by children and young adults increased dramatically throughout the course of the previous decade. Nearly half the adolescent population of the United States consumes more than three cans of soda pop a day. Kids as young as seven months old are now drinking cola products.
Indeed, whereas milk used to be the beverage of choice for young kids, now it’s those sweetened carbonated beverages. Milk consumption in the 1990s decreased nearly forty percent from the average for adolescents in the late 1970s. That means that children today drink twice as much soda pop as they do milk!
Prevention of obesity ultimately begins at home. For children and young adults dealing with obesity, it is best to evaluate the individual’s situation, taking in to consideration environmental, genetic, and metabolic concerns while treating the arising physical and psychological damage that has arisen. An obese child’s eating plan should also come with an exercise plan. Long term counseling is often needed to deal with self esteem issues relating to obesity that can effect the child’s performance in the real world.
