Based on Eric Schlosser's bestselling Fast Food Nation, this is crammed with facts and information for young people about the fast food industry - how it all began, its success, what fast food actually is, the truth about slaughterhouses, meatpacking factories and flavour labs, global advertising, merchandising in UK schools, mass production and the exploitation of young workers in the thousands of fast-food outlets throughout the world. It also takes a look at the effects on the environment and the highly topical issue of obesity.
Meticulously researched, lively and informative, full of shocking first-hand accounts and quotes from children and young people, Eric Schlosser presents the facts in such a way that allows readers to make up their own minds about the incredible fast food phenomenon.
