Do you remember the documentary about fast food restaurants like McDonalds that are placed in low-income neighborhoods cause huge jump in obesity? The residents in those areas tend to gain quite a bit of weight.
People with little money don’t really have much of a choice when it comes to eating out options. A cheap fat-filled hamburger looks like a great deal and they can get a few of them but they are full of empty calories and a terrible health risk.
There has been much more than just one documentary done on this situation. There has been quite a bit of involvement. New York’s Area Council got involved and produced new labeling laws to increase awareness on this problem.
Even with the new laws things haven’t changed. According to a recent survey New York’s poor people are still victims of a terrible diet in their low-income neighborhoods.
Contradicting this is the metropolis. They (McDonald’s and KFC) seem to think that men and women are ordering food with less fat and calories. How could this be when an independent shows otherwise? It just doesn’t seem right.
One thing that could be setting the figures off is the fact that chains like Subway have much healthier low cost foods and the chains with the unhealthy foods like McDonald and KFC are using the healthy reports in their equation. This will definitely throw the numbers off for an accurate report.
What the metropolis is doing is using the reports from wealthier neighborhoods where better food is more readily available and group those reports with those from the poorer neighborhoods that don’t offer the healthier food.
All-in-all the City’s statement is useless. The poor are still making bad food choices.
