Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All
American Meal The affinity of the American people
with fast food can be understood because it
enables people to eat on the go and to be able to
take out their meals that are set to an affordable
price. Fast-food restaurants address a societal
need of Americans today which is the lack of time
to cook their own food for themselves. If there is
such a thing as instant coffee then it would make

Does nutrition status affect fertility? Good
overall nutrition, rather than eating any specific
food, greatly improves your chances of conceiving

sauce topped with cheese is not exactly considered
a healthy meal. Our society today is busy and on
the go at all times. It is so much easier to stop
and get fast food and then continue on. However,
