Fast Food Nation

Hear a sample from Fast Food Nation

The Jared diet; oversized meal deals; drive-thru service; dollar menus. We can't escape fast food. Is a foot long sub really better for you than a burger and fries? That's a question Fast Food Nation won't answer, but it covers plenty of other territory with a highly divisive tone. Rick Adamson reads Eric Schlosser's report of the state of fast food in the United States and around the world with the critical tone that Schlosser's reporting suggests. Whether you believe the accusations in Fast Food Nation or not, there's no denying we live in a world consumed by convenience. Bigger, better, faster, more is the order of the day and Schlosser takes an interesting look at how that's impacted the societies around the world as fast food continues to expand its reach. Taken with a dose of Super Size Me, Fast Food Nation will have you on the 3 apple plan in no time.
