Reality Blows

In America's modern, fast, and greedy lifestyle, it is almost unrealistic to believe that we can get rid of fast food or even make it completely healthy. This is very unfortunate in my opinion; however, this is the truth. Fast food has become a staple in American families because it is price efficient and convenient. For some families, this is the best way they can afford to feed their families. It would be very easy for fast food companies to change their produce and ingredients to more healthy organic items, but it is not at all cost efficient. They'd have to spend more money on their resources which means higher prices for their products and maybe even laying off employees. Why would a company want to lose out on millions of dollars to look out for the health of their consumers? Even though more information is being provided to consumers of the unhealthy ingredients many are not changing their habits. If consumers are already aware of what they are purchasing and still purchase it, then why change? All in all, no matter how much we pressure this industry to change they will not be able to change and continue to meet the needs of their consumers. Whats your take on this? Do you believe there is a cost efficient solution? Or, do you agree that "there's no going back"?
