Writing Assignment: Fast Food Analysis

Tasty cheeseburger with fried potatoes and cold drink

Pick the fast food establishment of your choice. Choose items on the menu that would make up a typical “fast food” meal. Research the nutritional content of this meal. Most fast food establishments now have a nutrition chart posted on the premises or on the website. If you don’t see one, ask the manager to provide the information for you.

Hint:
Look primarily for calories and fat grams.

Also note the protein grams, carbohydrate grams, trans-fats (hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils), sugar grams, sodium milligrams and fiber grams.

Using these guidelines – Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2005 – to do an analysis and determine the following:

  • How would this meal fit into your daily diet?
  • How would the fat content affect your health?
  • How does the fat content fit into your daily budget for fat intake?
  • Does this meal contain more good fats than bad? How much of each?
  • Are there trans-fats? How many?

Write a 800 – 1200 word essay on your experience and your findings.

Spend a few minutes online doing an Internet keyword search for: Size Acceptance Behavior Assessment. From the assessment sheet you find online, rate the listed behaviors on how often you find yourself doing them: 1-never, 2-rarely, 3-occasionally, 4-frequently, 5-daily. Follow the instructions on the bottom of the sheet to help you analyze some of your size acceptance behaviors and answer the following questions:

  1. What does the behavior assessment tell you about your current ideas, behaviors, and concepts of body size and people’s weights?
  2. What are some of the statements that you didn’t expect to be unhelpful or harmful that can be this way?
  3. Tell about if you feel you need to make any changes in your attitudes and behaviors and what they would be?

For this assignment, I chose to research McDonald’s. A typical fast food meal at
this restaurant could be the “Number Two.” This consists of 2 cheeseburgers, a medium
fries, and a medium beverage. This typical meal may end with an apple pie for dessert.
This seems to be a pretty standard meal that many Americans might get for lunch or
dinner. With this meal, you can choose your beverage. Many Americans may choose a
soda or a milkshake.
The McDonald’s cheeseburger has 300 calories. They have 33 grams of carbs,
and 15 grams of protein. It has 100 calories from fat. It has 5 grams of saturated fat,
which is 27 percent of the daily value, and .5 grams of trans fat. It also has 40 milligrams
