    Cuz this nation is crazy and running too fast all the time....convenience is very important to many.

    That being said...make the best choices you can and make those choices fit...some fast food here and there won't delay weight loss if you make some mindful decisions and move more :)

    OP, because they have enough consumers to open that many locations. Convenience and money are what drives us.

    Unfortunately they won't go away until we can change the eating choices of others. The best thing to do is to just avoid them at all costs and don't judge those who eat there... they are the ones harming their own bodies.

    You don't like it, don't eat there.
    bingo.

    Also, OP, not everyone here is from the US...

    There ARE healthy options that are out there, but they'll cost more. Panera, for example, makes a healthier salad than.. say... a McDonalds will. The difference is going to show in the price and level of convenience.

    The fact that there are a ton of fast food places around is based on supply/demand and the almighty currency.

    Because of all the super crazy toxins and voodoo spells they put in the Big Mac.

    Duh.

    Obviously it's because people eat there. And there are healthier options out there. Panera, Chipotle, and Tropical Smoothie are fast food places that offer healthier fare, but they are never as busy as McDonald's or Burger King. At least in my neighborhood they aren't as busy. It's because people prefer cheaper and fattier food.

    I think it's just convenience. However, places like Wendy's and Mcd's offer salads. There are also places like Panera. Here in FL, we have Pollo Tropical which offers delicious griled chicken (latin food).
