its definitely real food and eats nice. i am glad i am not in America tbh cuz i dont know how i can trust myself with fast food in a place like that.

I’d still consider it as food but not as a whole meal. More of a snack/treat I guess.

The way fast food ingredients are manufactured and the horrible things they contain do not qualify them as food in my opinion, other than the fact that they are designed to taste good, fill your belly and make you feel full.

[strateguy632]

you can test that.
take a cabbage cut many slices and "fill a bowl" only vej cabbage. it will fill stomach but not feel full soon will feel hungry. so filling is not the factor but which category unless eating protein like chicken etc.

There was a video on YouTube many MANY years ago and one Scientist bought all different brands of fast food and looked under microscope, what he found shocked not just him, but millions of people, which led other people to do the same thing ( buy fast food meals and look under microscope) Scientist wasn't lying, he showed the truth. 90% of entire meal is fake. french fries is not made out of real potatoes, in fact there was no trace of any potatoes at all, but rather they were made out of industrial waste substance, chicken nuggets were also made out of synthetic bio-engineered glue like substance instead of real chicken meat. All patties are made out of pink-slime and pink-slime is made out of intestines, brains, crushed bones and red artificial paint that you can find in most candies in your local supermarket store. It is not just fake, it is also slowly killing people.

except McDonald's they have a sticker about nourishment

Technically, it is "real" food (for the most part), just not a realistic diet. Everything in moderation.

However, the fast food industry does add lots of artificial flavourings, colourings and preservatives to their food in order to make it taste "better" and have a longer shelf life. A lot of garbage oils are used too, and almost everything is cheapened to the nth degree. Fast food is made to a price point, which isn't always the best for quality. Nor does fast food make economic sense for people who eat it regularly. I can make WAY better food for less than half of what fast food coasts, and is also healthier for me too.

Fast food is okay as a "treat", or when you're travelling and there are no other better options, but it's not something that should be relied upon as a regular part of someone's diet. Daily or weekly. Again, everything in moderation.

Barely real.

Of course, the feds allow all sorts of stuff under the wrong labels, anyway - - so- - - - - -

Example: Candy (ie sugar and flavoring) is "100% gluten free".

Heck, even arsenic is a "natural" element!

That begs the issue, but just a bit. There are so many odds and ends in what we call "fast food" in so many joints, that we rejoice when a place such as Chipotle, etc actually uses ingredients that are reasonably pure.

Fast food is absolutely real food. When YOU have had to subsist off wild-caught pigeons and cockroaches caught with traps baited through dumpster diving, you can claim otherwise. Not before.

[strateguy632]

fast food is protein GOOD and REAL. fries are potato VEJ is good and real, even with added salt and fat. that doesn't cancel the good. the sugary drinks are the only problem.

[AviatorTom]

Fast Food is real food, some of it is not as nourishing as other non-fast food. It's only called "fast" because it's a short time from ordering it until it's served to you.

[TheSpaceGnome]

Some of it is food, usually local family owned places or small more expensive chains, most cheap mass chain places however usually serve hyperproccessed garbage disguised as food.

[Fireguy17]

while it is real, heavily processed and not the best choice you can make when it comes to eating it, the fact that it is convenient is the big seller.

[exitseven]

It may not be the most nourishing meal but it is real food.

[Briscole]

Some questions are just hard to answer. lol I didn't even give this one a try. Bill Gates wants us to eat bug burgers. Yay!

[exitseven]

@Briscole he can go first

[Briscole]

I respect him as the king of software, but now he's lost his marbles.

[strateguy632]

it IS nourishing, read mcdonald sticker, it is also fattening so only as "part" of a varied diet.

[Anonymous]

Depends what you mean by "real". Most food you but at the store is of no better quality than fast food. If corporations could make piles of 💩 tasty to the American public they would sell that to them.

[LiamJHayden]

Good, no. But real? Yes, in that it will keep you alive longer than nothing at all.

[Iron_Man]

No but it’s something to eat especially if you’re not a chef

[OddBeMe]

Food is food. There’s just healthy and not healthy.

[BootsLover94]

It is fake trashy food

[strateguy632]

it is fattening, which is discouraged more for girls than boys.

[Kingofkings1992]

It is real food of course just not the best food

[DaBiggestBird]

Burgers are GREAT and thiccness is balance!

[Nikki1989]

It is not called junk food for nothing.

[strateguy632]

the only REAL junk food is vegetables for fiber. but still "need fiber for junking". sugar is sweet because it is a good source of power. the issue is amounts.
carbs are good and necessary same as a bit of fat, the issue is amounts. fruit is a great breakfast. parents who don't wanna sound stingy say they "won't buy junk food", not because really junk.

[ChicoFromThe305]

Nope lol

[GrikGad]
