1. FAST FOODS LAYA OOMMEN

8. This is a study done by Gulf News that shows the fast food eating habits of a survey group. This results show that 72% of the survey group eat at a fast food restaurant at least once a week.

21. If a label says "low fat" or "reduced fat", then the product will be a healthy choice……. False - A product must have 25% less fat then the original product for it to be deemed as having "reduced fat". However these types of products tend to be "high in fat and energy in the first place", therefore the "reduced" version may still have high amounts of fat and energy. For example, a normal butter product may have 20 grams of fat. A "reduced fat" version can contains15 grams! Fat-free foods can contain no more than 0.5 grams of fat per serving. Low-fat foods may contain 3 grams of fat or less per serving.

23. DRINKING SOFT DRINKS WON’T ADD UP MUCH CALORIES….. FALSE A 32-oz "medium" Coke Classic has 300 calories and 21 teaspoons of sugar. A "large" (44-oz) Coke and a large popcorn gives you enough calories for the next 24 hours. Diet sodas contained between one and twelve calories, depending on size.

24. CONCLUSION Fast-Food is becoming more and more acceptable and convenient in our society. With our daily busy schedules, many just don't have time to prepare the food at home or go out to eat at a restaurant. Fast-food restaurants also offer low price, variety and predictability. However, they tend to be very high in fat, salt, sugar and, therefore, in calories. So It's better, one reduce the portion size of unhealthy fast foods and also don’t forget to include large amounts of fruits & vegetables in your diet.
