Everyone has had fast food at some point in their lives, especially in America. However, this seems to be happening much more frequently, with children eating fast food as a large part of their diet. According to Jennifer Harris, leader of a nutrition team at Yale, "there is a lot of research showing that eating fast food is harmful to young people's health, increasing the rate of obesity". This by itself is quite worrying, as many people do indeed take their children out to fast food often. Because these fast food chains are so easily found, fast, and cheap, its far too easy to substitute that food for a meal made at home. But, with obesity rates going up so quickly, it should be common sense that something is wrong with those
