Research
Since my current experiment as has slown down in results, I decided to take this week to just do some research on how often other families eat out. According to allbusiness.com, despite the recession, American's are spending 1 billion dollars a day on fast food. Because of this, it is said that the entire restraunt business will make over $376 billion in the next year. The restraunt business's economic boom could possibly be in some way related to why so many American's are gaining so much weight. A little know fact is that there are hidden oils and greases inside of the majority of restraunt foods, so when Americans are eating out 5 to 6 times a week, they could be secretly gaining weight and not even know. For starters, no one should eat out no more than twice a month. What the problem really comes down to is American's just being LAZY and not wanting to cook their own foods. They look to places like Burger King, Applebees, or McDonalds for their food and don't even care what it does to thier bodies on the insides. I'm not saying that eating fast food is bad, but eating it all the time, everyday, can be bad for someone's health. Do American's seriously care so little about their health?
