It is true that if you don't want to you don't have to eat it. But it is very difficult for some people not to. Fast food chains have some of the best chemical engineers working on their food to create the most addicting flavors, fats, and salts you could put in something. Thats why their food tastes good to you, because it was manufactured to. This is the greatest display of capitalism that ever existed. Using the cheapest chemicals to sell as food. Also most people who eat mcDonalds and are obese and therefore attempt to sue mcDonalds and other chains dont have any better alternatives to eating fast food. They are on the lower end of the salary scale and work several jobs, and it does not make sense to them to spend more time preparing meals, out of ingredients that are expensive (healthy food costs more than unhealthy food) so they go purchase fast food.

I personally avoid fast food as much as possible. I don't even see it as food. I think of it as a plastic snack with flavors. I do have fast food sometimes, but very rarely. When I do, however, I can completely taste the chemicals, and how unnaturally prepared the food tastes.

Fast food is okay once in a while but flipski is right, the chemicals in them are what makes them so appealing, that and of course the advertising.

Woo I win this debate.

McDonalds French Fries (Untouched!) after 5 years does not show mold or anything on it.

A regular potato shows mold after 2 months (Untouched).

McDonalds food is simply not regular food...

I think Mcdonalds is evil. No corporation should be that big.

McDonalds isn't only bad, my dad is a health freak but he ate a chicken sandwich there. And my mom is on a diet but she eats salads or maybe sometimes kids meals.

Also, Mc D is not evil because they are big. Wallmart is bigger than they are.

I think McDonalds is tasty and cheap! I also haven't eaten there in six months because its incredibly unhealthy! Seriously people, self control! Let people get morbidly obese on the stuff because they can't control themselves. Its their life to ruin if they want to.

Also, Mc D is not evil because they are big. Wallmart is bigger than they are.


Anyone who says Mc Donalds is evil is problably going to say WalMart is evil.

McDonald's does a great job making America fat, but the other fast food restaurants help too. Anyone hear about that movie with the guy who ate McDonald's 30 days straight for every meal... I'm happy I didn't see that. But yeah, you don't have to eat their food until their finished taking over the world.

I doubt McDonalds, KFC or any other fast-food chain is making people fat... aren't the people the ones who eat? Fast-food chains only sell food that is wanted the most... so that means a LOT of people like a good ol' greasy burger.

It all comes down to self-control. Is it bad to eat at a fast-food chain? Probably not as good as eating your vegetables. But it tastes nice, so every once in a while it's not that bad. Ofcourse it's bad to eat there seven days a week, but this again leads to self-control - it's your own choice to eat there.
Saying you didn't know it was bad for you is saying you smoked 5 packs of sigarettes a day for thirty years and didn't know it was bad... there is no problem if you refuse to see it.
