FAST FOOD IN THE 90s
Mc Donald was born in 1985 but in the 90s it developed a lot.
In this type of restaurants you can eat sandwiches, hot-dogs,
fried chips and you drink coke; you eat all types of food that is
fast to prepare.
The guys like it a lot because it
isn`t very expensive and you
eat several different things.
This type of nutrition isn`t
very healthy since it has
saturated fat, sugar, salt and
calories and it is completely
opposite to the traditional
Italian meals, that are slow
(slow food).
Slow food
The alternative to fast food is slow food. Every time you eat you
have a complete traditional meal and so it takes you more time to
finish and you can digest easily; thus the slow food movement
promotes the pleasure and enjoyment in food to protect Italian`s
health. There are a lot of lawsuit against fast food, but there isn’t
a real demonstration about the negativity of this type of
restoration. We think that you have to limit this nutrition because
it increase the level of cholesterol in your body.
