Chew on This: Everything You Don't Want to Know about Fast Food by Eric Schlosser and Charles Wilson
Chew on This: Everything You Don't Want to Know about Fast Food

TennisMe2, September 21, 2006

As disheartening as "Chew On This " was, it read like a page turner thriller. I couldn't put it down. I am heart sick at the treatment of fast food animals in this country and had no idea this was going on. I rarely eat at fast food chains, mostly on a rare occasion to get a coffee or a fast food breakfast. Perhaps twice a year. A boycott from me would hardly be effective, but none the less that's what I indtend to do. Thank you Eric Schlosser and Charles Wilson for opening my eyes.
