Fast Food? Is it A Wise Choice?

Thanks to Allah, for giving me another chance to post another entries on my blog. After through a hectic week as a student, full with assignment, without proper nutritional care, I realize that work will never run out. Always coming and coming. Busy work makes people do not keep eating properly and they think by choosing fast food is the best decision for them because the preparation is easy and available in anywhere. Consumption of fast food too often will be harmful to their health, also will cost quite a lot of money. Without realizing it, taking it too frequently will cause variety of diseases especially obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure.

Mc Donald, KFC, Burger King and Subway are among the well-known among Malaysians. Premises which are easily available and preparation of food quickly make it suitable with our busy lives. Fast food restaurants are now growing like mushrooms after rain. This is because many factors for its growth such as strategic location, the services offered and the price is reasonable.

Nowadays, our community's nutrition are generally affected by time constraints faced by our society. Many of them are running out of time to prepare meals at their home. If observed wisely, can fast food rival with the nourishment of a home-cooked meal? Of course the answer is not. This trend becomes worrying because many people practicing  it in their daily lives without thinking the effects of the consumption of fast food. It cannot be denied that most fast foods have a flavor that attracts us to try it. The delicious's taste makes customer feels addicted to try it many times.

Once again affirmed, consuming too much fast food can give bad effect to our body. Therefore, we should eat what Islam has been recommended to us which is simplicity in diet. We as a muslim's consumer, should be wise in choosing the best food to ourselves and give priority in HALAL so our health will guaranteed.
