19. Fast food is addictive.
Fast food is addictive psychologically. I got two personal training certifications for personal reasons. I learned that fast food could be ok if you stay away from soda and french fries. If you do that you probably won't have to worry about getting obese. The problem is soda and french fries are the most popular items on the menu. Both soda and french fries cause a isulin high. These two items spike blood sugar real fast then within a few hours blood sugar drops and the person feels down. The problem is that's similar to drugs. Caffeine and nicotein do the same thing. These business people aren't stupid, they know they'er trying to market addicting products. So, I think they do have an accountability to consumers who are ignorant of these things.
