What's your opinion?

Both health-wise and economically?

In my opinion, while they're good for the economy providing millions of dollars in taxes, however according to most people they're bad for you health-wise. But, isn't everything bad for you in excess if you think about it eating fastfood isn't all that bad if you only eat it once in a while.

You can spend $50 at a resturant and get worse food and service than at another location where you can spend $10.


thats service, but u do know that the quality of a object is mesured by the prize. Why do u thing it would be that expensive?

Or poor parents, parents who have lost jobs, parants that are in a hurry, and as I said it whould be bad to eat every day... and the kids are happy with the cheap peice of plastic that comes with it.


lol xD kk if they are poor then okay, but most AGer arnt poor

Your spelling hurts my brain......anyway most of us might no be but we all know someone who is.

@Balerion: No ones going to pass laws against that because these politicians rely on the funds coming in from the big corporations lobbyists which means that law comes up all of a sudden a bunch of people lost massive amounts of funding. Our world revolves around money....

fast food is good for on-the-go only. its ok if your in the car of just in a hurry. but if you want to have fast food as a real meal in a regular fashion its just unhealthy.

We all know this, but I think the Supreme Court could make a ruling to set things aright.

It's addictive, and food companies actively promote its use as a 'flavour enhancer'.

Generally, I think choices like this are personal. If it weren't for the exploitation which fast food joints perpetrate here and around the world, I'd be fine with it if it's a person's choice. Who am I to say what people should or shouldn't do, so long as it's only their health they are endangering.

aka bad. They buy the worst cheese, worst meat...and so on (aka bad)

im not sure, but MSG just like that is bad. It makes cancer, and so does 90% of the rest of the things in a fast-food meal. But we agree that junk-food is bad for your health.

I believe the same thing too.You got to have balance in your alimentation in order to be healthy(who doesn't want to be healthy..)As for the economical issue Fast Food restaurants provide too much money in taxes.Also,junk food isn't that expensive for a person of the bourgeoisie.

why is the worst cheese and meat some of the best tasting food in the US. if it really is the worst why would they change and pay more for what the public already loves?

Fast food as a whole is slightly addictive, and the marketing of MSG doesn't reflect on the dangers of the compound itself.

MSG is only bad if you intake massive amounts of it or you're allergic.

aka bad. They buy the worst cheese, worst meat...and so on (aka bad)


I'm not saying fast food is tasty, but flavor is based on opinion. Worst cheese and worst meat just makes a less flavorful, cheaper product. How evil.

im not sure, but MSG just like that is bad. It makes cancer, and so does 90% of the rest of the things in a fast-food meal. But we agree that junk-food is bad for your health.



Lol, you just said 'I don't know it's bad, but it's bad! lolol'

Also, sources on MSG causing cancer. Wikipedia says that there are no human studies supporting that MSG causes major health problems - obesity or cancer. Quite frankly, loloynage, you have no argument other than your own flimsy claims. MSG is not proven to cause any health problems, even in large amounts.
