Hello Venezuelans
I trust you are doing well, I would like to participate and share my views on this challenge on fast food organized by Steemit Venezuela. I would be sharing about a few fast food within my area (Nigeria).


”Everyone Loves Fast Food.” Tell us your opinion about this statement

As the name implies, fast food can be defined as any food or edible material that can be made quickly and in little amount of time, it can also be a quick food or quick meal prepared quickly, packaged and can be taken away or eating on the go (eating either on movement or in transit). Back to the topic, “everyone loves fast food”. Based on the schedule of individuals and people who work, it is important to note that humans need food that can be prepared as soon as possible (ASAP), this enables them to quickly take launch breaks and go back to work as soon as possible. For example a banker working in a bank would probably have 30 minutes launch break between 9am to 5pm daily and would probably need to quickly eat something and regain energy to keep working. Hence fast food is efficient in such situations. Everyone loves fast food because it eliminates The Whole “work” involved in actually cooking.

Do you regularly prepare fast food at home or do you have a favorite place? Tell us about your experience.

When I use to work as a Data Entry Agent with a non governmental organization, we usually resume for work by 8am and close by 5pm. Within this period we have a 30 minutes break between 2pm and 2.30pm. I would usually order fast food from the nearest restaurant, that’s what I do mostly except on rare occasions where I come with snacks like biscuits or small chops or actual cooked food like rice and stew or noodles packed in a cooler or takeout packs. Sometimes during that break we would leave the office and go to my favorite place called “chicken republic”, a fast food restaurant on my way to work. There we usually order White rice and stew or Jollof rice with soft drinks where we eat talk amongst each other. Sometimes we would order Rice cake (popularly know as MASA, Common in northern Nigeria). Eaten with pepper.

Do you have fast food promotions in your area? Show us your favorite fast food place and tell us the fast food prices on Steem.

Do you think fast food affects your health? Explain

Yes. Most of the time these fast food contain lots of calories which are not good for the body and health. So a high consumption of these fast food can be detrimental for the health. Some of these fast lead to excessive fat in the body which can be hard to lay off. Also some fast food require chemicals to preserve for a longer period which when taken into the body would lead to some health challenges.
Also, eating of fast food can make some people lazy and relatively make them stop cooking and eating healthy natural food using natural ingredients which are free from calories and some harmful substances used when preparing fast food.


What are your recommendations for people who are addicted to fast food?

I would recommend that a first a medical checkup should be conducted to check and make sure they don’t have any underlying problems caused from some of these fast food or processed food. Then after that, a reduction of fast food should be done, we should all encourage and learn to eat home made, natural food for the benefit of our health.


I invite my friends @papi.mati, @pennsif and @brahmaputra to participate, share their thoughts and also write articles on the same topic so we can also learn from them.

@jasn1, I worked in a bank and I only had 30 minutes for lunch, that was chaos, that time was not enough for anything, just some fast food, nothing good for my health.

I see that you also find yourself in the need to eat at Chicken Republic for reasons of time, that is common nowadays.

That's why the large number of people who get sick from consuming fast food daily.

Good guidance that offers us first to perform a medical checkup and reduce or stop consuming fast food to maintain good health.

Friend I take advantage of the occasion to give you an orientation, for a next opportunity you should place the photographs with a format where the photos are seen in a normal size, neither too big nor too small.

I say goodbye wishing you success in the contest.
