The Facts of Fast Food.
We talk about healthy eating on this blog alot, but very rarely discuss the foods that aren't good for you.
We hear it all the time -- "Fast Food is bad for you". But how bad is it exactly? We know about the trans fat, high calorie, and high sodium counts. We know about the grade D meat, the processed vegetables, and are told the nutritional information on charts behind the registers with type too small to read. They even are honest about their practice of using preservatives in their food.
But what kind of preservatives and how much exactly? Many of you remember a few years back when activist Morgan Spurlock debueted with his epic documentary "Supersize Me"-- a film following a 30-day time period in which he eats only McDonald's food for breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner -- exposing the drastic affect on Spurlock's psychological and physical health, while exploring the fast food industry's influence and its encouragement of poor nutrition for profit.
If that wasn't enough to shake the Big Mac out of our hands, Author and Obesity Activist Julia Havey set out to find the truth about fast food as well. In an attempt to prove exactly how processed and full of additives a McDonalds hamburger really has, she has been aging a McDonalds cheeseburger for 4 years -- and it does better than a human being.
