Fast Food poll

We are about to start our video series in which we go into various restaurants, buy their food, then take it home and examine it. We dissect it and break it open, and basically see all the stuff that the casual consumer doesn't see due to not wanting to see it. But here's the problem. There are lot's of fast food restaurants out there for us to "investigate" and we have no particular reason to go after any one. So we put the poll on the home page so YOU can decide what our first "target" is. The fate of all these restaurants lies in your hands...no pressure.

Burgers cause asthma?

The BBC recently published a news story on a study done by professor Innes Asher from the University of Aukland in New Zealand, and professor Hywel Williams from the University of Nottingham in the UK. The study was done on 500,000 children in over 50 countries on the subject of fast food. They discovered that children who eat fast food seem to suffer from allergy like symptoms. They say this is because fast foods are often rich in different fats that are known to weaken the immune system, causing the children to develop allergies that they didn't have before. They say that this can be avoided by eating fruit, because fruits are rich in antioxidants. The risk of developing allergies increased by 27% in children 6-7. The risk increased by 39% in children in their early teens. 

This story seems pretty legit. Some people have gotten cancer and diabetes from eating fast food in the past. So it's completely plausible that someone could develop an allergy from it. But don't let me be the judge. Check out the story for yourself here.

Undercover Health Inspectors

Hello food eaters!

We are the Undercover Health Inspectors,

Don't let our cheesy name fool you, we mean business.

In general, our mission is to expose the disgusting truths about the fast food industry.

Very similar to the movie Supersize Me, except that we don't have any connection to Morgan Spurlock.

Anyway, we will be going to various fast food restaurants such as McDonalds, Burger King, Carl jr., and other big names. We will then post videos of ourselves dissecting the food.

In other videos, we will examine the restaurants themselves and find dirty things.

We will also be doing commentaries on various food related news stories.

The food industry has a lot of ground to cover and we hope you'll enjoy it.
