What is "fast food"?
Fast food refers to food that is quickly prepared and served, typically by restaurants specializing in this type of service. Fast food is often associated with items like burgers, fries, pizza, fried chicken, tacos, and sandwiches. These meals are designed for convenience and speed, allowing customers to eat on the go or with minimal waiting time. While fast food can be convenient and tasty, it is often high in calories, fats, sugars, and sodium, which can contribute to health issues if consumed frequently.
