It does contribute to it, but also you have to keep in mind that us as the consumers have a choice in whether or not we want to consume that much of the fast food. Yes Fast food companies are a large factor of obesity but we have free will making us have a choice in what we do, eat, or say.
Not really.
Unless you know it already, it's real easy to figure out that Mcdonald's food has a lot of calories in it - these day's it's written on the menus and the packages.
So anyone who is able to read, and still overeat, has only got him/herself to blame.
It's like blaming car manufacturers for speeding tickets.
It depends how much you eat. If you put McDonald's into a balanced diet with exercise and other foods, it won't.
However, if you only eat McDonald's food, you will be fat over time.
No. Its a self cause.
yes
Corporations, McDonalds, School's, ect
You can not blame the store who made the food for making you fat any more than you can blame the fork that put it in your mouth. It's just food, to get obesity you must eat it in excess of need. KFC does not cause obesity, nor does McDonalds, but peoples over consumption of the readily available and relatively cheap food instead of cooking their own can lead to obesity because of its high fat content.
yes.
Well, advertising clearly works (that's why companies like McDonalds spend millions of dollars on it. McDonalds advertising does not reference the extremely high fat and calorie content of its food. It is argued that parents in particular can be blamed for the obesity of their children.
No. Fast Food isn't to blame for obesity because your the one that chooses to eat it
Yes. Fried foods make you fat.
Fast food is one of many causes of obesity - fast food offers a lot of calories for relatively little money.
The rate of obesity has been rising while the gene pool has remained relatively constant.
The child and the parent. the child: for eating too much the parent: for feeding the child too much
School food is generally healthier. Now that obesity and healthy eating is in the spotlight, many schools have dietary guidelines to meet for the food they serve.
When a child from age 13-19 eats alot of fast food and get fat.
If you eat many macs (McDonalds burgers), you will gain weight. If you buy many macs (computers) and use them, as long as you exercise 5 times a week and have a balanced diet, you will be fine.
