Why do you purchase fast food?

Hi all! :)

For a university project I have decided to focus on eating habits and hope to find out why people eat the way they do and hopefully I'll be able to share some findings with you!

To those that have carried on reading :) if you have a few minutes spare could you fill out a survey for me? It's looking at fast food outlets and why you do or don't eat there.

Any information provided would help immensely to this study :) and if you could possibly spread it around?

The link is: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/N8WPTV3

Thank you so much :) xxx

    I just started eating healthy and on track close to 3 weeks ago, so do you want my answers of the lifestyle I was living before, or how it's been the last 3 weeks, b/c in the last 3 weeks I have pretty much not ate out at all. Maybe once? twice?

    Edited to add:

    Okay I filled it out... I went ahead and answered it from my lifestyle prior to 3 weeks ago, as that was the majority of how my food habits and time was spent. I figured I shouldn't answer just my lifestyle in the past 3 weeks because in the grand scheme of things, that wasn't a fair representation of my eating habits overall. LOL.

    I hope to read some of your findings on the "why" :huh:

    Esp, with 2 kiddos in college, I can't understand how they prefer to use the only $$s they have on that crap when I offer to supply a meal card to the mess hall (no crap included). They've both run out of gas $$ at the end of the month bec' of their poor choices.

    FRESHMAN 15 times 2 in the House :huh:

    Waste of $$ and health :noway:

    Just took your survey. Good luck with your project! :-D

    I think the biggest thing i've noticed about fast food is it provides me a salt and butter kick that I can't get from normal food.
    I've especially noticed this since i vastly cut my fast-food intake ... after a month of not having it, if I have something fast, it's like the body just siezes onto the flavorings... odd experience but i'm convinced the food is addictive.

    My weightloss has also accelerated since I quit fast food, and the only thing I was really eating when I chose fast food was chick fil a. :=D

    I just took your survey, pretended it was in a time prior to my current healthier lifestyle. While I am at this moment really enjoying a tasty bowl of low cal cole slaw, just thinking about Burger King has had an effect on me. I love me some Burger King, however my wallet is fatter and my belly slimmer when I "just say no" ;->
