The writer of the passage clearly regrets the fact that -----.
Fast-food is such a pervasive part of American life that it
has become synonymous with American culture. Fastfood
was born in America and it has now swollen into a
$106-billion industry. America exports fast-food
worldwide and its attendant corporate culture, has
probably been more influential and done more to destroy
local food economies and cultural diversity than any
government propaganda programme could hope to
accomplish. No corner of the earth is safe from its
presence and no aspect of life is unaffected. Fast-food is
now found in shopping malls, airports, hospitals, gas
stations, stadiums, on trains, and increasingly, in
schools. There are 23,000 restaurants in one chain
alone, and another 2,000 are being opened every year.
Its effect has been the same on the millions of people it
feeds daily and on the people it employs. Fast-food
culture has changed how we work, from its assemblyline
kitchens filled with robotic frying machines to the
trite phrases spoken to customers by its poorly paid parttime
workforce. In the United States, more than 57 per
cent of the population eat meals away from home on any
given day and they spend more money on fast-food than
they do on higher education, personal computers, or
even on new cars.
