Eating fast food

So far the book has just been giving little information on fast food. I know its unhealthy for your body, I just need to read further into the book to find out whats so bad about it. Fast food still doesn't gross me out in anyway, but maybe it might change after I find out a little more. I'm still eating fast food very often, its a fast and cheap stop for a quick meal. I don't believe that this book will change my perspective on fast food.

Book Introduction

Today I started reading the first couple pages of Fast Food Nation. It started off with Cheyenne Moutain, explaining the different work done inside the tunnels and passage ways. People there would eat cafeteria food and get tired of it, so Burger King or Domino's was the place to go. Fast food basically began with hotdog and hamburger stands down in california, then it started to spread like a disease. Fast food was everywhere around the nation, billions and billions of dollars were spent by Americans on fast food.

The intro was pretty interesting, ill get further into the book and post more soon.

Getting started

Today I came in and talked to Ms. Magyar about my contract class. She got me a book called Fast Food Nation for me to read through and take down notes/comments. I spent a good amount of time in class today setting up my blog and getting the basics down. I will post another blog once I get started on the book.
