Modern life runs so quickly that people often don't have enough time to eat. And most certainly
they get little time for cooking. Lots of people think that fast food is the best solution in this
situation. That's why fast-food chains have become so popular. They provide simple menus,
which usually contain French fries, hamburgers, sandwiches, salads, milk cocktails, brownies
and else.
Perhaps the most famous fast-food chain is McDonalds. This place is rather popular among
children and grown-ups. People like having food which is cooked beforehand and served
quickly. However, doctors all over the world find fast food rather unhealthy. They say that fast
food contains many calories, lots of fat and just a few vitamins. They also say that eating fast
food every day leads to overweight and stomach problems.
Luckily, people today are more health-conscious than before and they realize that eating lots of
fast food can be dangerous. The question about fast food always brings up many opinions. Some
people state that it's not bad at all. Usually those people have lots of work to do during weekdays
and fast food is a good idea for lunch. Children are also among those who like fast-food chains.
They especially like getting toys with their meal. McDonalds was the first restaurant to use this
strategy. Others avoid eating fast food because it can lead to the following health problems: high
blood pressure, heart diseases and obesity.
In conclusion, I'd like to say that everyone has a choice. I choose fresh fruit and vegetables.
That's why when I'm at a fast-food restaurant I order a salad and an orange juice
