Seriously though, compared to what people were eating 100 years ago, fast food is extremely healthy.

I in know way endorse it as your main diet, but still, to make them about to be evil monsters is kind of silly.

Check out the origins to the poem "peas porridge hot".

Meat was many times eaten raw and was not always the freshest or from an animal most would consider eating cooked and seasoned. To get an idea of what it was like one need only check out the 3rd world countries around us and see what they eat. McD's and the like every day would be a vast improvement for them.

Main issue with people in the US and modernized countries is that we A) consume way to0 many calories be the healthy or not and B) have very sedentary lifestyles compared with others

I actually know some people who lost weight and became healthier incorporating McD's into their diets (not salads) but of course they eat the happy meals and drink water as opposed to super sized double 1/4 pounders with a large soda.
