Fast Food

Fast food has become a significant part of modern life and is marketed with persuausive advertising. However, there are serious concerns about its impact on health. Consider appropriate contextual material and produce your own work in response to any aspect of this topic.

Areas to consider: packaging, marketing, branding, the food itself, the connotations of fast food, the health implications of a fast food diet.
