The Dark Side of the All-American Meal
What’s really behind that golden-brown French fry or
the perfectly stacked burger? In Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the
All-American Meal, Eric Schlosser dives deep into the world of fast food to
uncover the surprising – and sometimes shocking – truths that are served
alongside every value meal. Spoiler alert: it’s not just about the calories.
Cover book : Fast Food Nation
With a sharp sense of humor and a journalist’s knack for digging up the untold stories, Schlosser takes you on a journey from the shiny, family-friendly restaurants to the gritty realities of the industries fueling them. You’ll meet everyone from the teenagers manning the fryers to the factory workers enduring one of America’s most dangerous jobs. Think fast food is all about convenience? Think again. It’s about Hollywood deals, massive real estate empires, and the relentless pursuit of profit – often at the expense of our health, environment, and culture.
Travel with Schlosser to Las Vegas, where franchisers
gather for over-the-top conventions (yes, even Mikhail Gorbachev makes an
appearance), and to Europe, where the fast food takeover is as real as it gets.
Along the way, he exposes how fast food giants target the youngest among us,
shape our taste buds, and push globalization faster than you can say “supersize
it.”
Packed with eye-opening insights and biting
commentary, Fast Food Nation isn’t just a book – it’s a wake-up call.
Whether you’re a foodie, a history buff, or just someone who’s curious about
what’s behind your favorite combo meal, this book will have you thinking twice
before your next drive-thru run.
