Fast Food Culture
Fast food culture refers to the societal trend of consuming quick, convenient meals that are often high in calories and low in nutritional value. This culture emerged in the mid-20th century with the rise of fast-food chains, emphasizing speed and efficiency in food preparation and service. It reflects modern lifestyles where time is scarce, influencing social interactions, eating habits, and health. While fast food provides affordable and easy meal options, concerns regarding dietary health, environmental impact, and the diminishing appreciation for home-cooked meals are associated with its prevalence in many countries.
