While for a lot of people see fast food as being something completely normal and even necessary in a developed society, there are others who are in disagreement and see it as a corruption which is slowly but surely killing millions and millions of people around the planet. There are a lot of people who are actually quite surprised that people would readily throw away their health like it was nothing in exchange for a quick meal.
Eric Schlosser is one of those people and he decided to look deeper into the fast food industry and what lies beyond. The result of Eric Schlosser’s investigation is a book titled Fast Food Nation and it is dedicated to showing the reality of every single aspect of the fast food phenomenon, from the young cashiers all the way to the suits sitting at the top and raking in the money.
In a lot of cases his discoveries are quite disturbing as he even points out at some point how unsanitary the practices of most fast food industries are to the point where feces can literally make their way into the meat.
If you are interested by the phenomenon of the fast industry and would like to have an unbiased look at what is really happening behind the curtains, then I heavily recommend you read Eric Schlosser’s investigation.
 | Eric SchlosserEric Schlosser is an American investigative journalist who touches on large societal topics in his rather well-known books which include Fast Food Nation, Reefer Madness and Chew on This. His exposition of the practices of the fast food industry have painted a target on his back, though he certainly seems to have intention of backing down, even appearing in movies about the subject in one capacity or another, as he did in an interview for Super Size Me. |
