Review: "Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal" by Eric Schlosser

Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American MealFast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal by Eric Schlosser
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Reading this book made me feel like a bastard for ever having eaten at McDonald's. Or Burger King. Or KFC. You get the picture, right? Schlosser unravels the fast food industry for inspection and the industry fails, hard. Anyone even the least bit leery of corporate behavior will find fuel for their worst nightmares in this book. It could have easily been called "How the world is being destroyed by a handful of psychopaths".

Will I be able to stop eating fast food to voice my displeasure at this behavior? My money is on no. I definitely WISH I could get away from it though. I wish we all could.
