| In North America, people are always in a hurry. Children have special lessons or sports activities after school. ①Parents often work late and don't get home until 7 or 8 o'clock at night. More than 50% of women have full-time jobs. Most North American families don't have time to eat many meals together.
When a family takes the time to eat a meal together, often there isn't enough time to make the food. That is why “fast food” is so popular in North America. People spend about 40% of their dollars on fast food.
Fast food is such food as pizza, sandwiches and fried chicken. People usually buy the food from restaurant chains（连锁店）, such as McDonald's and KFC. Fast food saves time, but it is not very healthy.
Fast food is popular in many countries. But not everyone is happy about the spread （普及） of fast food. A group of people in Italy want to fight against the spread of fast food. They don't want more fast-food chains to open restaurants in their country. They also want to fight against the spread of fast food everywhere in the world.
