Isn't fast food delicious?Aren't fast food restaurants cool? ...The answer to these questions is yes.
However,there are growing facts that fast food is one of the worst parts of modern life.And studies have shown that burgers and fried chicken,which we enjoy so much,can cause a lot of health problems.
In spite of (尽管) this,why are fast food restaurants so attractive(吸引人的)?The first and most important reason is that their service is fast.Their staff(员工)are friendly and very smart﹣looking in their clean and bright uniforms(制服).Moreover,most fast food restaurants are near places that people always pass by.It is so easy to graba burger and eat on the way to work.
Fast food is often so conveniently packed(包装方便)that it will not cause a mess even if you stand and eat it.Fast food restaurants are also very clean.A lot of clever ads(广告)have made them the coolest places in town,but none of them has ever told and will never tell you that too much fast food is not good for your health.
Such attractive places are selling junk food!Isn't it a pity?Is there a way to change the fast food restaurants into special places where you get the best possible,healthy and fresh food?
Well,why not?
As people realize the health problems that fast food causes,it is quite likely that fast food restaurants may go out of date.It may happen sooner or later.
Therefore,instead of resisting(抵制)fast food restaurants,a better idea may be to persuade(说服)them to change their menu!Fast food restaurants can be places to go to when you want to eat something that will be good for your body.If they could combine(结合)healthy food with their speed of service,delicious tastes and comfortable feelings,that will be the next best thing on the earth for the human beings!
