You know the documentaries that show the results of fast food restaurants such as McDonalds being placed in low-income areas? They always prove that this can cause obesity to the residents in the area.

For the most part, poor men and women do not have many choices when it comes to food that they can afford. They also tend to go to restaurants that are close by. For these people that one dollar fat-filled hamburger looks like a great opportunity and the people eat as many as they can afford. These are terrible in calorie quantity and very bad for their health.

In fact, it hasn’t just been one documentary done on this story. There has been an ample amount of involvement. New York’s Area Council got involved and made new labeling laws that it hoped would help gain people’s awareness of this problem.

Even with the new laws things haven’t changed. According to a recent survey New York’s poor people are still victims of a terrible diet in their low-income neighborhoods.

Contradicting this is the metropolis. They (McDonald’s and KFC) seem to think that men and women are ordering food with less fat and calories. How could this be when an independent shows otherwise? It just doesn’t seem right.

One thing that could be setting the figures off is the fact that chains like Subway have much healthier low cost foods and the chains with the unhealthy foods like McDonald and KFC are using the healthy reports in their equation. This will definitely throw the numbers off for an accurate report.

These studies are in reality false and almost like cheating on the part of the metropolis. They are taking the figures from the wealthier neighborhoods and grouping them in with those from the poorer neighborhoods in order to make the numbers look better.

Basically the City’s report is of no use. People in poor neighborhoods are continuing to the exact same thigh they were in the first place.
