The fast food industry gives people what they want- it's what will sell and most people do not eat for health, they eat for pleasure. But if enough people demanded healthy food they would offer it. Even the few things that fast food chains have developed in the past ten years were a response to demand. As for me, I almost never eat fast food unless forced by business association. It isn't very good for you nor is it very good in itself, too little care involved its preparation or ingredients.

Some years ago I lived in a college town and they had this fast food place that only made truly healthy stuff. I ate there every day! Bean soups, veggie burgers, seafood dishes, foreign dishes, fresh bread, even the take out was good. Fast food does not have to mean cheap, unhealthy food.
