The fast food era

By PATRICIA M. BRAMAN We are now living in a fast food era with one out of every three meals eaten away from home. In this fast food era, we are still concerned with proper nutrition. According to a recent study of one burger chain, the menu is similar, nutrition-wise, to homemade versions. The typical menus of the chains supplies a reasonable percentage of certain nutrients. Any meal, whether eaten at home or at a fast food chain, should supply one-fourth to onethird of the daily needs for most nutrients. Os seven typical menus analyzed from one chain, five provided 20 per cent or more of the USRDA’s of protein, thiamin, riboflavin, ascorbic acid and calcium. Fast food meals are typically short in vitamin A. Vitamin C is available only in salads, french fries, and orange juice. In order to obtain adequate amounts of vitamin A and C. other meals should include dark green vegetables such as broccoli, or deep yellow vegetables and fruits. Broccoli or citrus fruits can be eaten for vitamin C. One wanting to lose weight

should choose his fast food menus carefully. Most fast food menus contain 700-1000 calories. One thousand calories for one meal may be average for a teenage boy or’man doing heavy w'ork. but it is about 40-50 per cent of the calories needed per day by most women. If this number of calories is eaten at one meal, be careful to select nutrient-packed, low calorie foods for other meals and snacks. Calories can be cut in fast food meals. Burgers or fish can be ordered without mayonnaise or other dressings. A burger can be eaten on half of the bun or none at all. Drink whole milk or skim milk instead of shakes and calories can be cut in half. Fast food establishments are growing in popularity. While they are convenient, be sure to plan the rest of the days food to include vitamins and minerals.

town has problems. I think we have less problems than large communities/' She believes the town board is trying to alleviate some of these problems by adding more services. Recently, a full-time police department was added. The town also has a new sewer system. These new services keep Mrs. Payne busy. "There's just not enough hours in a day to get everything done." "The clerk-treasurer job has become more time consuming since the town has started growing," she added. "We're trying to grow as a governmental unit. It's got to become more involved in community affairs. It's not a small town anymore." She went on to say the residents are beginning to show some interest in what goes on in town. "More people are coming to the town board meetings. We'd like to have more input from the town," she said. "A lot of people think of North Webster as a sleepy little town. Not true. There's no standing still. You have to grow or go backwards." She does feel the town board has made a good start. "It's hard getting started, but we're on our way now." Likes Sports In her spare time, when she has any, Mrs. Payne likes to lay in the sun, camp and watch sports. She especially likes the International Palace of Sports in North Webster.
