Question

in "A culinary Wasteland," what argument made in fast food nation is Crossen refuting with the statement above? He largely ignores the cost and benefits of food being "fast"- yet isn't the speed of fast food one of its greatest virtues?

A. The consumption of fast food is one of the biggest causes of diabetes and childhood obesity.
B. The quick production of fast food has a negative effect on the quality and safety of the products.
C. People would demand change if they saw what happens behind the scenes of the fast-food industry.
D. Food was much more nutritious before the popularity of fast food than it currently is today.

Answer 1

I believe the correct answer is B. The quick production of fast food has a negative effect on the quality and safety of the products. 
The statement that the author used is talking about the speed that takes these products to be prepared, and option B is the only statement which even remotely mentions the preparation speed, which is why I'd choose that option as the correct answer.
