McDonald's and KFC symbolize fast food in China.The usually clean and spacious chain stores are noted for this efficincy ,quality,and simplicity.You order it ,pay for it,and get it,without having to sit for a long time at the table waiting anxiousl for your food. Fast food certainly deserves its popularity considering the living and working pace of modern people.Do you like fast food?

Hello Dear Papasay! I am a person staying about 50 Kilometers away from good City! We need to go once in a month to this place for our shopping which includes our month's grocery too! So normally we leave our place as early as possible to have our lunch out side and after having the lunch we prefer to go to some movie the switch on to shopping! while coming back we pick up some food for dinner in packet which we can have at our place! I have given this back ground because having travelled so long with hungry stomach,it becomes impossible for us to wait for food once we enter a restaurant! The Waiting period seems like a hell then! So we prefer to go to KFC, which is quick in its service! The hygiene is good. In comparative rates in India KFC is still bit expensive eating place but if we compare the quality an quantity I personally feel that it is OK! Thus there is no question of liking or not we end up into entering KFC most of the times and enjoy our food! Sometimes We also may try Biryani, a local non vegetarian dish made out of rice and Chicken or Mutton which is again ready made and they just heat it in the microwave and serve it hot! Here also the hygiene maintained is very good and cost wise it is also almost at par with KFC!Since we are having such fast foods once in a while I can't say that we are addicted to them but yes we all, that is my wife , son and myself like to have such foods as a change!!!! In India with the improved economical conditions of the people after the sixth pay commission, the middle class people then have become bit better now and they have got some cash to spare after their routine monthly expenses and this makes them entitled to venture inti such fast food centers! Previously at least in India only the rich people would visit these sort of places! Of Course Today's young generation after their graduation, earning good money and they don't mind spending some amount on such food stuffs, to make them famous in the market1 The presence of the young people at such places make it more charming, attractive and makes the place very lively and entertaining, which I enjoy most!!!! Thanks for the discussion, I enjoyed participating in it! All the best!!!!

I think that fast food is not a good food. This food is too tried and the meat is not of excellent quality. I'm italian and I love good food like pasta, pizza, vegetables and meat but the main thing is the excellent quality of these even if the price is greater than fast food.

Of course I love fast food! everybody loves fast food, unless they eat very healthy but that is almost always because they are worried about their weight. we just had a power outage for a few days so we lost most of our food so we ate a lot of fast food these past few days, but not even my favorite places because those were closed because they lost power too. anyway, yeah of course I love fast food, my favorite places to take out are Chili's, Chinese, Pizza, Taco Bell, and McDonalds.

What I think of them is "delicious". Though I know they are unhealthy, they taste so freaking good I can't stop eating them. Especially KFC. That has got to be my favourite fast food chain! I love fast food but I wish they were healthier than they really are. I see myself eating them at least once a week, minimum.

It's fast, tasty and convenient. Too good to be true. That's why fast food are fatty and really unhealthy but that isn't stopping anybody from eating there. I do like fast food and I do occasionally buy it when I'm going out. I always hear from people who work there that it's unhygienic and the food is off or expired but people still eat there. As long as it tastes good, it's good enough for me.

We used to go to McDonald's for breakfast every July before we went to have our family vacation. Eventually, we chose places to eat that didn't serve fast food because we were trying to eat healthier and to start a new tradition.

I like fast food because it tastes well and it saves the time. And the fast food restaurants are clean and spacious. And the price is fine. Although some people think that it is not healthy to eat fast food. But I think it is alright since you will not eat it everyday. I love China

There are many fastfood chains here in my country Philippines. Other fastsood here are chowking, Jollibee, Wendys, Burger King, etc.. If you are in mall or streets, it is much safer and cheaper to eat in fastfoods than in restaurants. So for me, I have no choice but to eat in fastfood. I like it but I still prefer home cooked meals

I love fast food, I used to have it every weekend. But now I avoid having fast foods that often for the only reason that they are not healthy. But yes, when i have less time and more to do, I prefer going for fast food.

I'm not a great fast food fan. I don't like McDonalds or Burger King. The only Burger Place I enjoy (of fast food places) is Carl's Jr., and I only eat there if I'm on the road or away from home. I do like pizza, but usually get frozen cheese pizza and add veggies to it before cooking. When we go out, we normally go to Home Town Buffet where we have lots of salads and vegetable choices and several choices of main dishes and desserts for a very reasonable price. We can eat quickly and leave, or hang around and talk if we choose. If we are at home, we normally get take-out Chinese if I'm too tired to cook. We don't do either of these things more than once a month. I have a lot of nutritious and tasty foods I can make quickly at home.
