FAT AMERICA VS THE FAST FOOD GIANT PT 2

I believe much of these problems/issues starts with our diet. If we eat processed-non nutrient food, we become less effiecent and unproductive with our daily tasks due to burning off the calories and left feeling sluggish and full of fat. The fastest and most accessable foods are ones found in our lunch room cafeteria as well as every urban street corner (fast food). These multi billion dollar fast food powerhouses are making money hand over fist and continually serve us the worst grade, processed food available. Where is the ethical responsibility to its customers? I am sure customers would not gripe about spending an extra $.50 to have a qualtiy meat, vegetable, or cheese. Why can these giants not offer more healthy options. I am not talking just apples or some iceberg salads with high fat dressings, but other options that aren't fried or full of fat. Jeeze, you would think that they would have caught on and started the first "healthy fast serviced" restaurant. They WOULD BANK!!! The double edge sword here swings back by these large companies saying offering more quality options or ingredients cuts their profit margins and the food spoils faster. The cheap price might fill the stomach, but is fattening our future (kids). We need to set a healthy standard with our criteria for what is acceptable to feed our families and children.
