My Thoughts on FFN=]

Before reading Fast Food Nation, I thought that it was just going to be about every fast food company and how successful they’ve become. I never thought that it would get into gruesome details about how the food that we eat is prepared so badly. I’m glad that we read this book; it opened my eyes to a lot of the stuff that I eat. It makes me think about the animals and how they were treated, which makes me upset. Just like the trees in the rainforest, or the oil we have, people who work in slaughter houses feel as though there are so many cows, that they are able to do anything to them and not have to worry about the end result.

This book affected me in many ways. Not only by changing my diet, but also thinking about the animals that are being horribly treated and basically sacrificed for our nasty eating habits. I think that I am going to try and really cut down on a lot of fast food and eat more healthily. I still cannot believe that the cows and pigs that we consume, consumed dead animals and feces themselves. It disgusts me to such and extent to where every time I eat fast food, I think about eating dead, rotten, nasty animals and their poop. I think that these fast food industries should just stop worrying about the quantity, and start worrying about the quality. If all they care about is the quantity and not quality, their food is going to cause all of their customers to get horribly sick and may even cause death, and then they won’t have anybody to sell their food to, so in reality, they’ll end up losing money.
