KFC

The reason it isn't mouldy is because it's dry. There's no ketchup or mustard on the burger and the fries are well salted. Dry food means no mould. Ever seen prosciutto? It's made the way it is for just this reason.

You could take home made bread and a hand made beef burger and wind up with exactly the same picture.

And don't even get me started on fast food nation. The guy had an underlying liver condition (which he didn't bother to mention) and went from a vegan diet straight to a diet where he got all of his protein from meat. Having seen a flat mate go from a meat-based diet to a vegan diet overnight, radically changing your diet in any way means your body has to adapt to cope and that means temporary side effects.

There was a Swedish study (I think) that attempted to recreate fast food nation under reliable conditions. The students didn't even put on any weight.

There's propaganda on both sides. I don't eat fast food, so I'm hardly on their side, but don't discount the (more insidious IMO) propaganda of the anti fast food brigade.

Fair points. There may be propaganda on both sides, but one side is trying to keep people healthy. I mean shock, horror, students didn't get fat eating burgers?


Have a gander at what happens when you compare your "hand made" burgers with the long-life fast food crap;
