UK ♥ Fast Food
According to a BBC investigation it has concluded that British folowed closley by Americans eat the most fast food than any other country. It observed a trend of obesity throughout the world except Asia. It claimed that, "45% in the UK" would not give up fast food due to the taste. Obesity related illness pose a great threat to healthcare systems worldwide.
This article was an intresting read as it shed light unto health practices around the world. Although I am not suprised by the finding, since it was the U.S. that practically coined the world and concept, it makes sense why we love our fast food. The fact that many countries outside of the U.S. and U.K. have the same relationship to fast food speaks of the globalization and commercilization of western ideals throughout the world. I would be a hypocrite if I were to claim that I do not eat fast food but as with anything one must consume it with moderation. Our ancestors in the past were much active than we are nowadays. You can attribute that to technology but that does not excuse the fact that we should assume a lifestyle with excercise. Its a new year . . . do something about it!
