This picture is a prime example of how location is a prime factor in determining how much Americans spend every year on fast food. Fast food chains are invading every square foot of the consumer world. These mega-monsters can be found in indoor malls, outdoor malls, Targets, Walmarts, K-Marts, Amusement Parks, Hotels, Bus Stations, Train Stations, Subway Stations, and Airports just to name a few locations. Even the White House is infamous for its on location McDonald's. The easier this access, the better the flow of money.
I agree. I believe the reason people eat so much fast food as to do with location. I mean people are going to go to the closest establishment.They want their food fast. If the closest Mcdonald's to civilization was 50 miles away, people just would not go to it. I believe because there are fast food establishments every 2 blocks this has created a fast food frenzy.
ReplyDeleteEverytime you turn a corner, a fast food restaurant is waiting for you. I know that at my work, I can smell the nearby restaurants and it makes me want the fast food. However, out of sight out of mind, and if they were not on every street corner, people wouldn't be as enticed. I don't think it's necessary to have two McDonald's within a 2 mile radius.
