Fast Food Nation 150-200

Until 1985 Mcdonlands used meat fat in thier oil when frying their famous french fries. Now the resort to artifical flavored meat infused with thier oil. Many fast food companies now turn to artifical flavoring for the extre ump in thier food. Artifcal flavorings are cheaper and are able to sneak under the radar of the FDA. When ERic Schlossser visit the manufacture of these flavors, he meets the head sciencetist he changles him to a little exprienment to guees what the flavors of the chemicals are. "The first one smelled like warm chocolate chip cookies that my mother jsut baked, the second I was transported to the New York Harbor I could smell the hot dogs grilling on a busy city street, the third overwheelmed me with citrus, I could smell Florida fresh orange groves. I opened my eyes and just see a smiling chemist smiling back at me."
