Not all peoples in Malaysia know about the true meaning about fast food. As our all information, fast food is the foods that are easily to get, to eat and to take away. There are a lot of branches of fast food the entire world including Malaysia. They are called as fast food because of decency to get the foods.

Fast food refers to any poor nutrition food that is easily prepared. Fast food may include chips, hot pies, pasties, sandwiches, burgers, croissants, kebabs, pizzas, chicken, soups, and salads. It also includes drinks, for instance, milkshakes, and soft drinks. There are many examples that are we most people know for example soft drinks, frozen French-fries and the most favourite meal in Malaysia that was burgers.


There is a little bit information about burgers. As we know, burgers are made-up of a piece of bread with a slice of meat, tomato, eggs, burgers and hot dogs. Human are free to make a choice about what are the taste they wants to eat. Each brand of burger has their own cooking instructions like pan in a little oil, microwave out of the package or made another types of foods.

Other type of fast food is soft drink. Soft drinks are referring to carbonated, sweetened beverages or also know as soda or soda pop, Pepsi, Madura, coca-cola are the just a few example of soft drinks. Almost all soft drink contain a lot of sugar and few of minerals. I have some information that proves that soft drink is danger to our life. Reporting from the research in the lancet, a British medical journal, a team of Harvard researchers presented the first evidence linking soft drink consumption to childhood obesity. They found that 12-year-olds who drank soft drinks regularly were more likely to be overweight than those who didn't. For each additional daily serving of sugar-sweetened soft drink consumed during the nearly two-year study, the risk of obesity increased 1.6 times. That shown that my facts about the dangerous of fast food are proven is true.
