Chew on this final project
Big
Researchers at Harvard found that at least 30,000 people who die every year die because of trans fats alone. Most fast foods are full of trans fat. They could be made with other fats but it is cheaper to make them with trans fat instead
A study that was conducted in 2004 showed that some ten-year-old children who were obese already had heart damage that was similar to heart damage that a forty-five-year-old man who'd been smoking cigarettes for ten years would have
An interesting statistic that was in the chapter was that one in every three children born in the year 2000 will develop diabetes over time
Meat
In 2006 about 9 million chickens in the US were raised slaughtered and then eaten
In the factories where they make chicken nuggets sometimes the workers would stomp on the extra chickens and throw them against the wall. One of the workers said "I like to hear the popping sound they make"
In 1970 the four largest meat packing companies controlled only 21 percent of the market but now they control about 84 percent of the market
Mcjobs
After interstate 81 got built most family run stores shut down. This happened because the fast food resteraunts saw the interstate as a chance for more buisness meaning that they all targeted that area to build more and more of their resteraunts. This resulted in the fast food places taking over the business and sales of the family fun stores
mc job is a job thats low-paying and offers little opportunity. The workers tend to be treated unfairly and the bosses only care about money for the comoany so that the workers get payed less
Stop the pop
Most eskimos dont have teeth because there arent dentists and they drink a lot of pop because there isnt a good source of water in there area.
When parents put soda in thier babies bottles and then the babies fall asleep with the bottle in their mouth it can turn their teeth black and almost melt them. This is called baby bottle syndrome
Lots of schools have fast food restaurants inside their cafeterias so that when students have lunch time at school they have easy access to their cheap unhealthy foods
The pioneers
During the early 1900s hamburgers were considered the food for the poor. They were believed to be polluted and unsafe to eat
The McDonald brothers also invented the speedee service which was more like an assembly line instead of chefs making the full dishes
Hamburgers were invented in October 1885 in a small town in Wisconsin called seymour Wisconsin by hamburger Charlie
Your way
In the 1980s there was a disease called BSE that spread in cows that would literally destroy their brains. The source of it was traced back to the caddle feed which was just dead cows
In-n-out is a fast food company without all the fancy machines that make the food so unhealthy. Instead they have fresh ground beef for the burgers and real ice cream in the milk shakes
Burger king oppened restaurants everywhere even in the middle of a war zone in Iraq
Secret of the fries
Milkshakes
these restaurants use over 20 chemicals in a strawberry shake.
McDonald's used over 1 million frozen french fries in one day.
The factory that McDonald's gets their fries from uses 25,000 pounds of oil to cook their fries in
The youngster Business
One of the techniques they used to advertise to children was they used a friendly and fun looking character called Ronald McDonald to attract younger kids
Ronald McDonald was only first introduced to the people who lived in washington D.C. and then since the clown had been such a success they decided to introduce the rest of the world to Ronald McDonald
Walt Disney was a huge role model for Ray Kroc, selling all the mickey mouse movies and toys
