In “let them eat fat” article, the author states that people eat much fast food every day since fast food was emerged. Therefore, people become fatter. Moreover, fast food companies have more aggressive in their targeting of poor inner-city communities. Fast food is developed by companies. On the other hand, fast food companies are misleading consumer. Before I read the article, I have realized fast food if unhealthy. However, I still was shock the number of one meal which come from fast food restaurant has been jacked up form 680 calories more than half of a teenager’s recommended daily caloric consumption. As a consumer, I think should not eat fast food again. I also want to recommend parents, don’t met their babies eat fast food just because it is cheap. Fast food is misleading us all the time.
In this article, the author said :”customers are cheerfully encourage to “super-size your meal” when a kid ordering a cheeseburger, small fries, and a small coke will get said cheeseburger plus a supersize coke and a supersize order of French fries.” As a consumer, might prefer choosing get the supersize of their meal when a cashier said you will get more food only for 70 cent. How smart fast food companies is. In fact, it are leading consumer eat more and more unhealthy food. As a result, people will become fatter. Let us image, if we eat fast food as our lunch or dinner for a one year, how fat we will become. Becoming fatter it means we will have many potential physical problems in our bodies. It is very serious problem for very consumer. considering our health, we should not eat fast food let us fat.
As we know, fast food always cheap and get fast and don’t need to wait for long time. Therefore, more and more people choose fast food as their lunch or dinner. It is cheap and convent for consumer. Many parents also take their children go to fast food restaurant. I was one of these children. When I was a child, my parents often took me go to fast food restaurant. I saw many children in there every time. Actually, I was like to go there because there are many children have the similar age as me. I can play with them. If my mother doesn’t want to cook, she will took me to fast food restaurant. She thought the taste is good. The price is not expensive. We both can afford it. Fast food restaurants offer some packages for children. I always choose package. I have eaten for couple year until I grow up. I also became a very fat girl. It was a very painful period of time. My classmates often laughed me. They did not want to play with a fat girl. Moreover, I became get sick frequency. I did not the reason until my doctor said to me that id fast food let me fat. I should realize the truth. My doctor advised me to lose my weight. Then I did according his said. Through this experience, I learned much knowledge at that time. I totally agree with the author points out that fast food let people eat unhealthy food and let them fat. It is not only did not inform consumer the calories of one meal, but also it recommend people to eat more. Like as encouraged customers to “super is free!” It is very harm for consumer’s health.
As a consumer, we cannot control fast food how to extended, but at least we can control our mind. We should know, we have a choice to eat or not to eat fast food. Eating fast food is not good for each consumer. In the future, I will not take my children go to fast food restaurant. I think it is a right decision.
