About Me

This blog is created to show our society behind the scenes of fast food. Many people do not realize what is in their food half of the time or where they come from as well. We do not know how healthy it is, what the animals have to go through to make the food, and if it is even safe to eat. We will break down this topic into three sections: healthiness, animal cruelty, and food safety. Enjoy!

Comparisons



As shown in the chart, it informs us how chicken pieces from individual fast food chains are different in their nutritional facts. As one can see, Dairy Queen seems to serve the most amount of calories and sodium compared to the other fast food places. 1270 calories for 6 pieces of chicken at Dairy Queen. That is about half of the calories one should consume in ONE whole day! All these places give a minimum of 5-6 chicken pieces;it is unbelievable how different their facts are. In 1 cup of boiled chicken breast, there are 204 calories which is less than what these fast food chains have to give, since they only have 5-6 pieces of chicken.

  1. Whats even more shocking is that the chicken pieces are not even that big. It makes one wonder why does one piece of chicken have so much calories? I also found shocking that by eating just one serving of the chicken pieces that dairy queen offers one consumes half a days worth of calories, and a lot of people just eat these as a snack.
