Book Review of Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal

Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal
rebeccam avatar reviewed on


This book was not what I had hoped. This book tells about issues in the food industry not just fast food. We learn about slaughterhouses and how the meat we eat is processed whether it comes from a fast food place or the supermarket. The section on artificial flavorings and colorings was very drawn out. These are added to cosmetics to other items bought in the grocery store such as yogurt. It was too long and I needed to skim it to finish.
