Thoughts about Fast Food Nation

Fast Food Nation (FFN) has affected me in more ways than one. I may  not be doing  a major change in my lifestyle but I will be changing some of it. Some of the stories I believe has some truth to it. Schlosser did a lot of research and supported his facts. But some I just find absurd but it does not mean I will not believe what has been written in the book. I like the fact that Schlosser pointed out the shortcoming of the government regarding the fast food and meat processing issue. I also like the fact on how the fast food companies like McDonald's has taken advantage of the consumers and misleading them. He also pointed the fact of illegal labor practices of not only the fast foods but also of meat producing companies. I always thought that safety is everyone's responsibility in the work place and the burden is the biggest on the work supervisors but Schlosser has also discussed the dangers everyone faces when working for these companies. I agree with him when he said that the government is not doing enough for the consumers, for the workers and for the children. Schlosser did a fine job of proving a point. I can say that I will not be eating at  McDonald's for quite some time.
