well, apparently obiesity is becoming a problem in America. The most obvious scapegoat for this delema is fast food resuraunts. Well by goly.. in my personal opinion, I blame it on all the conveniences that modern society has to offer to man kind today. Lights that you don't even have to get up to turn on and off(clap, clap), remote controls for televisions, radios and fans. But where it really starts to get sad are the buttons on these damn new age microwaves, there's a button for thawing meat and heating baked patatoes, even for popcorn! Let's take a minute or two to be nostalgic here and reminisce on the days where we had to listen to the popcorn and listen for one or two seconds between each pop. What is the world coming to?? No wonder obiesity is a problem, between remote controls, the telephone, the 'clapper' and pre-set buttons on the microwave, people might never have to get up ever again. Seriously, what's next, school on your T.V. screen.
So I say, give fast food places a break. Don't blame everything on them. You have to give technology some credit for overweight society too.
