KFC, Steers, Nandos, McDonalds, Chicken Licken, Pizza Perfect, Debonairs...
Need I go on?
In today's society we are given soooo many choices that something as simple as choosing what type of fast food you feel like today could be a problem.
Seeing as this is an area that the Americans are most qualified to comment on, i decided to visit a few American websites in order to guage what fast foods the prefer. I wont lie, I was shocked by the results.
and the votes are in...
5. Taco Bell
4. Burger King
3. Wendy's
2. McDonalds (shocker!!)
1. Subway
Back home in sunny SA, a Sunday Times survey showed KFC to be our fast food outlet in the number 1 position.
Next time you cant decide what to eat, keep this in mind.

Fast Food Frenzy

So I pass a McDonalds every morning and every afternoon travelling to and from college.
Thing is regardless of the time or day, that place is ALWAYS full so I decided to do some research of my own.
Did you know, according to popular studies, McDonalds serves 52 million people in America on a daily basis?
In 2006, the Pew Research Centre conducted a survey in the hopes of understanding the American eating habits... Results show that:
44% of Americans eat fast food once a week
20% eat it twice a week
14% eat it three or more times
6% eat it every single day
28% never eat fast food.
We are told that people are more health conscious now than they have ever been before.
The endless lines at that McDonalds say something different.
Something to think about.

Ever wondered why fast food outlets don't show the nutritional information on their packaging?
Well without realising it, we could be comsuming a whole days worth of calories in ONE meal!
Don't be fooled by their"healthy" alternatives. The scary fact is that even that food has additional sugar, sodium and fat which means that a salad could be just as unhealthy as a burger.
I personally enjoy fast food every now and then but for those of us out there who eat fast food on a more regular basis, just keep in mind that they hide the nutritional information for a reason.

Hello world of blogging...
I'm a first year interior design student and as part of an assigment, we were asked to set up a blog using a topic that we had chosen previously.
My topic, as you may have already guessed, is fast food.
I hope to bring you information that could be of use to you.
