food restaurants two to three times a week due to the convenience and simplicity of buying food that’s been pre-made. The primary fast food restaurants I typically turn to when my stomach is growling are Wing Stop, In N Out, and King Tacos. I tend to order a full meal, such as a 10pc parmesan wing combo with fries and veggie sticks, and usually a small soft drink as well. I also tend to eat veggie sticks and French fries with ketchup and ranch. When I typically dine at fast food restaurants it’s…
Have you eaten a burger from McDonald's? the question: must there be warning labels on the bag? Really, a label has all negative effects of eating one burger. There are so many of unsaid dangers that will come from fast food. Having a lack of personal responsibility in fast food consumers is a total contributing factor that will lead to a childhood obesity. "Don’t Blame the Eater" by David Zinczenko claims that the only inexpensive meal for teenagers is the fast food and there is a lack of…
possible! Let me just tell you my story, and prove you wrong. As I was walking out of class on a rainy Thursday afternoon, I stumbled upon a man. This man was dressed quite peculiarly, as if he time traveled here from 200 years ago. He was lying against a curb with a rusted, old gun beside him. He suddenly began to stir, and slowly, the man awoke. “Are you okay?” I asked. “What is your name?” I asked again. The man sluggishly and deliriously nodded his head in my direction, and began to…
myself I would never work in a stinky, smelly, fast food joint. So I applied at every “cool” retail shop in the mall. I got one call back but didn’t end up making the cut. Sadly, my worst nightmare came true I had to take the plunge and apply at fast food restaurants. A few days later, I received a call from McDonald’s wanting to set up an interview. I went in for the interview a few days later, and was offered the job on the spot. I have been working at McDonalds for two years, and this is the…
When I was born on July 21, 1998 my mom had me at Mt.Sinai hospital at 4:10 p.m. The hospital doesn’t exist anymore. My mom was accompanied by my dad and grandma. The rest of my family was out in the waiting area. My father named me after my mom which is Kay. I never really cried a lot. When I was a couple months old I use to go to church with my dad on Sunday. When I was two years old I went to a daycare called Childhood Develop Enrichment Center. The daycare was really fun, even though I was…
You are an addict, and you don’t even know it. As you settle down to enjoy your favorite cereal, coffee drink, and maybe a piece of toast to top off your breakfast, consider the ingredients that meal contains. I mean in my mind most of the major food groups are checked off...right? You’ve got grains, dairy, the cereal looks like fruit, and coffee boosts your energy, so we’ll say that counts as protein. You have grown up in a society that blinds you from the reality of what you are eating,…
go to different counties for fun? Are we forcing more kids to be antisocial because there are not enough opportunities in their own county? These are just a few questions that can be asked in relation to social options for teens in Caldwell County. My grandparents had very few social options compared to our generation but they had their own place for teens to socialize. The people I know from the counties surrounding Caldwell have an abundance of social options compared to the lackluster options…
a lot. Fast food places are a favorite and parents barely cook at home. A friend of mine eats out for all three meals of the day. He says his parents don’t cook, and that when they do he doesn’t like the food they make. A normal day for him would be breakfast at McDonald’s, lunch at Panera and dinner at BWW. Not only is this expensive but it is also very unhealthy. In contrast, people in Bogotá would rather eat a healthy meal at home than fast food at a restaurant. They do not have the time to…
