  Do You Eat? Then This is Worth a Read

Yes, it's worth a few minutes of anyone's time. Fast Food Nation will present more information about what American eats -and the people who provide it- than you may be able to handle.

The book served as the basis for a film (also titled "Fast Food Nation") that is well worth two hours of your life. The movie is based on one small section of the book. Try the film, if you want more, get the book.

I decided to purchase this book after watching the movie. The movie was very informative and very interesting. The book was even better. There are just so many secrets we don't know about the fast food industry. It really makes you question what you ingest.

I bought this book as a gift for my brother-in-law. I have not read the book, but I did see the movie and since it was based off the book I am sure the book is as good.

I bought Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser from this seller for school. I received the book in about a week and got exactly what I wanted fast!! The book was sent much quicker than most sellers send their goods and the book was in the exact condition as it was advertized. I recommend this seller to anyone who would like to have the same wonderful experience as I had. It is always wonderful when you get your books before your classes start!!!! I would definitely buy from this seller again!! ! A + + + + + + +

This book, will open your eyes, not just about what you eat, is too about how the big corporations work, thinking only in make more money. Will open your eyes about how some politicians acts, just thinking in getting more money. Will open your eyes in the fact of, the people, the final consumer, all ways is the looser.

I purchased this book because it had been recommended by my son. The author has done a tremendous investigative job on what the fast food industry has done to this and other countries. It is also frightening because you start thinking about everything you eat. Agribusiness has done both a service and disservice to each and everyone of us.

If you are a fast food junkie or only eat it occassionally, this book will open your eyes.

This is an extremely informative an readable book! Every one who's ever eaten a Big Mac or craved McDonald's French fries should read this. The book is well-researched and intelligently written (without feeling stoically "textbookish." It's also has some biting humor. If you care about food, health and the plight of the American eater (and worker), this is a book for you. Two snaps up!

Eric Schlosser is a well-researched and persuasive writer. The book reminds me of a more modern version of Upton Sinclair's The Jungle. I like the fact that the book closely examines the industry, gets right to the heart of issues, and is sometimes graphic in illustrating points. It would be hard to not think twice about consuming fast food after reading this book.

This book takes you behind the scenes of the fast food industry. Learn many facts which have been kept quiet by that industry.

  Find out what is really happening with food
Review created: 09/07/09
by:

This is an excellent, well-researched book about what is really happening in the food industry. It appears to be very well researched. There is much about slaughterhouses and fast food that I did not know. The writing meanders a bit but is in general really good. I read it quickly and enthusiastically. It is, however, very sobering. If I wasn't already a vegetarian, I would become one after reading this book.

Good condition. Took a while but got there anyway. why are they making it difficult? Why can't they just leave it at positive feedback. I for one will hesitate to leave feedback if it gets difficult. Why do I have to do this? Now they want 100!

  What a Bargain!!!
Review created: 03/08/09
0 of 1 people found this review helpful.

I bought this book because I needed it for a college class. I bought it on ebay for $1.50 plus the shipping it came out to like $6.00. When everyone else in the class paid $16-$17 dollars for theirs. It was a major deal because being a college student especially now times are hard and so it was great to find such a bargain. The book is in excellent conditions so I don't have any complaints about it.

  Review of Fast Food Nation
Review created: 01/17/08

This is a wonderful representation that will make you think twice about what you are eating. It starts off with telling about the beginnings of how fast food industry started in this country. Then it goes into how unhealthy that the types of food that we eat. I read this book for my Psychology class, and did really well on the paper.

So far it is an amazing book, somewhat depressing to see the direction American is going and how it did get there off of the American Dream!
