Everyone says fast food is unhealthy.
Nobody cares. Data says 2.5 billion people across the world eat street food while 66 per cent of Indians have fast food at least once a week.

Excavations in Pompeii revealed Romans patronised fast food outlets called thermopolium, complete with branding and menus. Roman households did not have kitchens and ordered in. The offerings were proto-fast food: the Pompeii hamburger 'isicia omentata' consisted of meat patty and fish sauce served on bread.
Donald Trump, while stumping for his next presidential run, flipped burgers at McDonald's last week. Trump's best political patty is his status as an outsider in the 'Washington swamp'-a bog of favours, bromances, dirty deals and dirtier secrets-which calls to his fan base, which is solidly red neck, racist and capitalist captains outsiders in America's woke establishment.
