ERIC SCHLOSSER has been investigating the fast food industry for years. His myth-shattering book “Fast Food Natoin” tells the story of America and the world’s infatuation with fast food, from its origins in 1950s southern California to the global triumph of a handful of burger and fried chicken chains. In a meticulously researched and powerfully argued account, Eric Schlosser visits the labs where scientists re-create the smell and taste of everything - from cooked meat to fresh strawberries; talks to the workers at abattoirs with some of the worst safety records in the world; explains exactly where the meat comes from and just why the fries taste so good; and looks at the way the fast food industry is transforming not only our diet but our landscape, economy, workforce and culture.    Both funny and terrifying, “Fast Food Nation” will make you think,but more than that, it might make you realize you don’t want a quick bite after all. “Healthcare” Team So, in our class 45 % - they like to go to McDonald’s45% - they don’t like to go to McDonald’10% - they liked to go to McDonald’s but now they don’t know    “Healthcare” Team Thank you for attention!Resources:http://www.amazinganimations.com/http://www.mcspotlight.org/media/books/schlosser.html Ерік Шлоссер “Нація фастфуда”. http://www.gvorn.narod.ru/interes/in25-12-03.html
